This little Stinker stole my heart.... duw!

I fostered this little lady for a few days before she went to a rehabber across town... I NEVER knew these little Stinkers were so cute! :oops:
I miss her already... :(

After a good meal and a nice stinky potty... she liked to romp around before she slept off her full belly! You can't really tell from these pics, but she is in full Skunk Pounce Mode... might be the cutest thing I've ever seen... :oops:

Hope you enjoy!

OOOOOOooo, I think skunks are adorable. I'd love to have a CB albino someday.... Where did you find her?

She was brought to me by a fella that almost ran her over...

I've heard that people have CB ones as pets, but I don't know if it's legal here in TX... at least I've never heard of any. I bet they're similar to a Ferret? All I know is they're ADORABLE!

I have never heard anything but CUTE CUTE CUTE about them.

They are beyond adorable. What a great gift to get to spend a few days with a baby skunk! :)

Bruce

CUTE just about describes her to a tee! LOL She was very bright too! She wasn't shy about letting you know she was hungry.. and if she thought I took too long to get her bottle ready, I was given all kinds of tweets and whistles! :)
Yea, it was really great to spend a few days with her... I miss the little toot! ;)

GAH that's cute!

Truuuuu Dat! :D

Yeah, those are one of those animals that may or may not be legal here in Cali, but I want one really really really bad... :D

So adorable!!!!!!!!!!

Possibly...one of the cutest things I've ever seen! :)

:D Thats TOO much cute for 1 thread!!! The feeding pics are precious!!!

I would honestly go through the process of getting a license for one!
They are supposed to be more affectionate than cats and some dogs.

It's usually a good idea to remove the scent gland though along with regular baths.. ahaha. Just in case something scares them.
A thunderstorm could end up bad..

Yea... they aren't legal here... I checked! :weirdface LOL

they do make wonderful and intelligent pets
they need a special skunk food with some odd nutritional supplements in it. I looked into it once because they are really really cute.

That's awesome...I've always loved skunks - Beautiful animals...Saw an albino skunk down in Florida about 10 years ago...

Yea, I did a little reading on them... I also found a link that was saying raw/fresh diets were good too...
I totally think you should get one! :D

I was looking around a pics last night and saw some Albinos, and some Caramelize ones too! Realllllly neat!
BT they are legal in Florida... just throwing that out there! ;)

I think skunks are really high up there on the list of cutest animals on the planet! I LOVE their faces.

This looks like a different species than the ones I am familiar with. It seems like it has more of a white patch on its shoulders than stripes down its back? Or maybe their coloring changes as they mature?

I agree she is a cute little stinker :P

Skunks ROCK!!! :headbang:

Yep! On my list too :) As I understand it, the wild skunkies all have their own pattern, ranging from almost no white to a full white back!

TRUE DAT! :D

OMG! That is way beyond CUTE!!! :love:

I'm jealous you got the chance to love on that little one for a couple days. Great pics!

Thanks Christi! :) I totally snuggled her every chance I got! She was a real character, and mastered her Eskimo kissing skills... :oops: The cute completely made up for the slight odor she was starting to develop! LOL

I think if I found something that CUTE, I could not let go!

dude i want one



mmhmm...
my dog would prolly rip it up tho =]

Nah, I have pleny of love for lots of other furry critters! ;) :P

Cute but...you guys are nuts. Just thinking about that smell makes my skin crawl...

I saw a weanling a few weeks ago in Kentucky. It was über cute!!but I made sure I wasn't near it....LOL.

They are very similar in attitude and personality of a cat. Howeever they are much smarter. We looked into them a few years back, as Monica and I really fell in love with them. They have some Choclate Albinos that are beautiful. We did a bit more research and found out that they are illeagal to keep as pets in Louisiana, so no quality breeder would sell us one. Maybe if we move, we'll go to Arkansas, as I know there are quite a few good breeders there, and they are legal.

Congrats on the job well done Laura.

p.s. Justin, you can have the glands removed if you keep them as pets, and they can't spray that wonderful smell any more.

Aww! Pounce mode is so cute! I didn't know they did that.

OK... I don't know if it's just me, but I really don't mind the smell that bad. I don't mean full on sprayed, but driving through a skunk cloud, I actually kinda like the smell.... :weirdface

Oooohhh yea! They bat at you with their little front feet... and hit the floor with them :oops: kinda like a playful dog, with it's butt in the air!

Here's a question... just out of curiosity, do the pet skunks use a litter box? I just wonder what the people that keep them do about poo control?

I just realised... we have hairy legs, and don't mind the smell of skunks... yea. Is this a good thing? LOL

Are you my long lost twin? :weirdface


:rofl: Hey, at least we're not shy! :D

You're not the only ones. ;) I use my children as a gauge as to whether or not I need to shave, as they love to rub on my legs when the hair getting stubbly. Shaving is the only way to get them to quit. :rolleyes: :oops:

Awww, I don't know how I missed this - but that is one adorable baby skunk! I don't mind the smell too much either - and I also will postpone shaving my legs for weeks - hahaha!

I remember going to a skunk show when I first moved to GA and loved them - so many pretty colors! I thought I remembered that it was illegal to own a "normal" b/w skunk, but the CB colors are ok in some states.

Skunks are SO ADORABLE. Did you call her "Flower"? :D I've never seen a baby one before, though! *melts*

This is great to know... we might just have the start of a pretty unique club! LOL :rofl:
I think your right Robin... When I did some reading I saw that some states allow color mutes but not the black and white... I wish they were legal here. I miss her! :oops:
