Pet Forum / Mammals / Ferrets / January 2004

One of my ferret's is around 4 years old.  I have noticed that he has lost
most of his hair on his stomach.  It also, almost looks like he has 6 small
nipples as if he was a female.  I never noticed this before (considering he
had the hair).  All of his normal habits are fine.  ...

Well, I'm asking for some help here. Seems that family situations are
changing here, and soon we'll all be living apart. Neither of us will be
able to take the ferts with us. The gang of 7 will be needing a good home.
If only I lived near Cap, they'd love him.

Ive decided to leave, not that most of you care, or are interested. Feel
free to reply to my threads but I wont be around to read them. I dont take
to kindly to people insinuating that I dont know bunk all about ferrets. I
simply came on to find out if my hunches were correct (note ...

I recently rescued a ferret from my friend because she wasnt taking good
care of her. I just gave her a bath, toweled her dry and she dried herself
as well. I was just curious though, she is hopping around a lot and trying
to bite at her backside. Ive noticed in the months she was ...

since i last posted about feeding wilson ultimate and path valley farms. He
had ran out of the ultimate and i said i would just feed him path. Well i
know longer hear him choke, which was from the star shape food of the
ultimate and i realised that he poops half as much. withoug the ...

I am not a ferret owner as of yet but I am considering rescuing one if I am
able to move to the place where they have a shelter.  I am looking for some
information about them such as what they eat, what they need for
accommodations, how they get along with other animals.  If you ...

My name is Dawn, I recently rescued a 5yr old female albino ferret from my
friend, who didnt take good care of her. I dont know too much about ferrets
and I was reading some of the other posts. I was curious, my friend gave me
a bag of Adult Hairball remedy cat food, is this good ...

and look what happens. Elite hackers threatening to post Chris's penis
size and Seeanna's bust measurements. Buster gets his nuts cut off,
and Steve is brushing his teeth with ferret poo. At least Lin got out
to get her kids so I guess it's not all a dismal picture.

It seems that one of my ferrets has decided that the 2nd tier shelf cormer is
the place where she wants to go now. I am looking for a way to prevent this.
Otherwise she is getting very good with the litter box but I must admit I keep
an eye on her most of the day and during ...

Here is the forwarded e-mail I received in my inbox this morning.  Sounds
like Lin's hubby, Jim wrote it.
Enjoy reading about their journey, everyone.

Someone on one of our Dutch forums has/had 2 males and a female living in a
very large cage. She's had them for about 6 months. Tuesday night the males
slaughtered the female together, they ripped her throat and killed her.
Normally they're the sweetest ferrets, and in fact they ...

Today was the day - Buster got his balls cut off. I took him to the vet
in the morning, he got weighed (2kg!) and then I had to leave. When I
called in at 2pm, his temperature was still low, so they had put him on
a heating pillow. Calling back at 4pm, I was finally allowed to pick

Longish post, sorry.
I've had ferrets of all kinds for at least 12 years, but this one has
me baffled.
Back story.

Hana, Queen of the "courtesy poo",  gets treats when she is out of her
cage.  She takes them and stashes them in her hidey hole. She never
eats them.
Of course, the treats get old and I throw them away.  She loves taking
