Hi Tombong. No, I don't keep ferrets. But as I keep Rabbits, I come into contact with many people that do. Hmm, that came out a tad wrong, lol! What I mean to say is, lots of people happily keep both!

Some mistakenly assume because you keep Rabbits you'll automatically be against those who work ferrets, this is not necessarily so

I do have a soft spot for ferrets. My brother had two (brothers) and he used to take them out on harnesses to the local country park, attracting much attention! He grew very attached to his "boys" and was devastated when they passed away, which sadly was within months of each other. You wouldn't get my brother working ferrets though - not in a million years

Yes your right i used to keep Rabbits aswell as ferrets and ido work my ferrets on daily basis but i still loved my Rabbits aswell unfortuatly they had to be p.t.s because they got a brain tumer ( litter brothers) it was in ther breeding. i cant bring my self to get another one because it was so hart wrenching to see this happen to a pet that you love.

I know where you're coming from because although I desperately miss having a dog, I cannot cope with losing them. Hence I have now been "dog-less" for nigh on 18 years...
