However, since someone didn't actually turn the alarm last night, I woke up
rather late.  So I was only able to get two of them in today.
I'm really glad I found this lady.  I didn't particularly like my ...

Well, finally ran out of the old Sheppard and Greene purple bag food.  I had
been doing a slow mix in with the "NEW AND IMPROVED!" stuff, and Sherman
just can't handle whatever the new formula is.  Once we got past a half and
half mix, his digestive system just couldn't hack it.  (I ...

   Ferret owner here..  Used to have 4 fuzzy little thieves now there is
only 1 (there can be only one).  I was wondering if anyone knew what
happened to the "Not Wild, Just Crazy" comic strip by Jennifer Gall.  Has it
ceased to be??  Also are the comics that were created located ...

with you.

go anywhere without my combat camo gear on and that included ferreting.

I decided to make Bob Church's chicken gravy.  I'm using the recipe found in
Ferrets for Dummies, and a hand cranked meat grinder.... boy, I thought

For the past few months we've had two ferrets (Isis and Zeeba), both female.
They both had a tendency to leave piles of sh.t (excuse my French) here and
there when they were on the loose, however they were thoroughly housebroken
when in their cage. Now one of them steadfastly ...

Is there an invisible fencing system that is applicable to ferrets?  I have
never used one.  Are they inhumane?  Would they even be appropriate?
I would love to be able to leave Una out unsupervised for short periods of
time to play in the grass. We have a small backyard with a ...

I'm not totally satisfied with the vet I'm currently going to.
Tomorrow, all four ferrets are going in for their shots to a different
