First off hi
Ferrets are very easy to care for , they love to play and like lots of exercise

Some people bathe them , i do but not very often...once a month should be ok , but too much bathing will make them smell even stronger , im used to the smell and it dosent bother me . ferrets are very clean animals.. mine has never soiled his bedding he does it as far away as possible on the other side of his enclosure , ferrets can also very easily be litter trained

i would defiantly go to a private breeder and pick up a baby from there

and yes they love as much attention as possible they are like a cross between a cat and a dog in there habits very mischevious and cheeky lol
there latin name Mustela putorius furo actually means smelly thief lol
they love to steal things and hoard there loot in a secret place

where are you based as in some states in the usa ferrets are illegal, im in the uk so no such laws for me
this is a pic of Fergus my Red eyed white hob hes 9 years old and will be 10 in a few months from now


ps dont belive the nasty rep they have ive never been bitten by fergus or any other ferret
