Gorgeous ferrets there, real cuties! I've never had indoor ferrets, ours always lived outside, we tried to keep Chelsea as an inside ferret when we first got her but she really hated the cage; went nuts and bit through Dad's thumbnail (he's used to it, he worked them when he was a kid). Calmed down so much when she was moved outside instead. They had a massive run with 2 hutches in it they could go in and out of as and when, lots of tunnels and interesting things.
I miss my ferrets God if I had the money this house would be filled; snakes, geckos, ferrets, cats, rats, pygmy hedgehogs all sorts. One at a time though, get myself a snakey first. |

lol don't mention fillinf the house with animals @.@ at one time my house could have been a petting zoo, 5 hamsters, 5 rabbits, 8 cats, 5 dogs, 14 guinea pigs, 16 rats... the reson I'm not allowed into a pet shop alone anymore cause I feel sorry and bring them home with me lol That used to cost soooo much in food and bedding for them all lol I used to buy bales of sawdust from the local farm haha
Now I'm behaving, I got my three rescue ferrets and my one bought from breeder cause I wanted to have the experience of lookign after a ferret growing up from young. Then I have my fish, my two cats (and one kitten) and my cresteds which I have always had cause they are my babies lol love my dogs.And we recently got Ginger because my mums always wanted a snake and so have I so she sent me home to research and then when I'd read up everything I could we went halves on her and set up lol
First ferret I had used to just sleep at the bottom of my bed, i gaveup putting him int he cage cause he learned how to open it lo.. These are pretty good they usually get most of the day to run around but recently we been trying to sort out the house so they havent had too much time out. But the cage is pretty big so they happy to stay in there. Bee is pretty much happy as long as theres food hahaha |

I'm finding it so difficult right now, when I lived with my parents we always had loads of animals around, at one point it was 2 cats, a dog, a chinchilla, 3 ferrets, 2 gerbils, 3 mice and 2 large aquariums of tropical fish.
Now I just have my two gerbils that my bf bought me for my birthday. I'm just so glad I'm not in student housing, I couldn't live without having at least a couple of animals around! Snake is definitely next on the list and then possibly a couple of leopard geckos. I'm really missing having some smarter rodents around, the gerbils are entertaining but not exactly intelligent, so later down the line I probably will end up with rats again...or ferrets (not rodents I know, but just as cute and cuddly).
I know what you mean about the rescue ferrets Twi, most of ours were rescues, the first pair, Trevor and Millie, were abosolute teddy bears, my 8 year old sister could handle them easily without fear of so much as a nip, quite often they'd just curl up and go to sleep in your jumper! I think the only one we got from a breeder was our most recent, Pod. Chelsea's brother Monty had died, and Chelsea was pining so much it was making her aggressive and hot headed, so we wanted to get her some company quickly. Saw an advert in the pet shop and when we saw the kits this guy had we just had to bring one home. Great thing was he actually gave him to us for free because he decided he liked my dad and knew that Pod was coming to a good home
Damn you Twi, you have me wanting more animals!!! I'll have to steal Tink, she's too cute to belong with anyone but me |

Hahaha Tinks the one I had from baby shes going through her teenage time. Nipped me hard the other week but usually once you hold her shes ok, she just goes over board with playing and gets too rough. I think funniest thing with ferrets was watching my brother freak out as Demon climbed up his jeans! |

Oh the "up the jeans" is always funny, just letting the ferrets out in the back garden and watching my friends jumping around squealing "Don't go up my leg! OMG it's trying to climb my leg!" has me in stitches every time! |

uuuuum don't know the exact size of it but bf could stand in it easily (hes about 6ft) and its just a bit longer than the average hutch and about as wide as two. Takes up a lot of space. |

some of us live in student halls with a covert zoo, when inspection times come around my gerbil hides in the cupboard (and kicks sawdust into my shoes) and spaghettis setup is secreted in a bag, she's very well behaved in comparison!
Was much more difficult with rats, is hard to conceal a few feet of cage and 2 overly curious and begging rats under a sheet!
