While some people may hate the daily rain and clouds in the sky, I
personally am enjoying them ;-)  I didn't see any rain, and I saw
absolutely no rain in the desert.  And oh the wonderful green, green
grass ;-)

Let's all go to our C:Windows Directory after we have made all of our
files in this directory visible.  Tell the group the names of the
Folders and Files which show as a light color and let's discuss this.

Curious if this is serious or not. Before wilson had blackheads on his tail.
i cleaned them with antibacterial soap and it went away. Now his tail from
the tip to about an inch before the end is turning an orange/yellowish. I
did the same thing and it appeared a little better. No ...

Bruno came to us March 23, 2003.  He had gotten away from his Mommy &
was in the care of a very nice lady.  We met him & Thomas, who had
also found wandering around on his own, on the same day & although
Bruno was already considered elderly & there were signs of insulinoma

Had to say I read some posts and pretty interesting.  I have 20 uncaged
ferrets who all get along, now 25 mice, 1 rat (use to rescue rats, but
their life span is too short for me); 1 gerbil.  All STRICTLY pets.  The
ferrets have the run of the house and I put an addition on for the ...

Carolyn was a rescue ferret and part of a 4 pack from the Utah rescue.  She
was the only one left.  Carolyn and her cagemates were old when we got them.
All 4 were exceedingly sweet tempered after coming from the deplorable
conditions they had been kept in.  It took them time to ...

My daughter and I were asked by a local ferret shelter to rescue 2
ferrets in early March of this year (2004).  We were happy to do it.
The shelter promised to take on a large portion of the cost of adrenal

I was wondering if anyone had adice on the viability of keeping both a ferret a
parrot and a conure as a pet. Would, the ferret spend all day trying to figure
out how to eat the birds? Would raising it with the birds from a kitten do the
trick? Would I just have to make sure that ...

I'm glad to have found this newsgroup.  I love reading all of the posts
about your ferrets.  I've found lots of useful information that I have
learned from and read many funny stories that I can relate to.
I have 4 ferrets, 2 boys and 2 girls. Our first is a ferret that we bought

Are there any safe pesticides to use around ferrets? When I finished out
this room in the shop last fall, I really thought it was sealed up, but
these last few weeks have me wondering if I really did a good job. I
spent about 1.5 to 2 hours with my ferrets last night and in that ...

Our fuzzie, Cosmo, just loves to chew on rubber. The problem is that
he destroys it way too fast. He tears through latex squeak toys in less
than a day. Hence, I stoppe getting them for him. I did get him a hard
rubber ball with a bell in it, but he doesn't care for it too much. ...

In two weeks time I pick up my new kit.  I have a choice of colour, one of
which is a black , probably more true poley.  Can anyone tell me if there is
definitely a difference in behaviour in a black ferret. Are they definitely
more wild or is that just a opinion the same as some ...

I've had my male ferret (Polle) for almost 4 years now, and 2 weeks ago
we got a 8 weeks old female (Matilde), hoping that they would have a
load of fun together..
