Hi, I am new to the forum, but not to ferrets Right now I have one little ferret named Ginny. I lost her friend to a bowel tumor at the beginning of July. I have decided not to get any more ferrets. Fawkes was my first ferret. Then we got Fred. Fawkes and Fred became fast friends. Then we lost Fawkes to juvenile lymphoma not last March but the one before. We got Ginny to help Fred through his grief. Fred was diagnosed with insulinoma at the end of June and we lost him 3 weeks later. Ginny has been doing well. I have a friend with ferrets so we had a few play dates together and I think that helped Ginny - it helped her to realize she was happier alone I think! My friend's ferrets ganged up on her and terrorized her even with careful supervision. Ginny is somewhere between 2 and 3 years old. We are her 3rd (and final) home. She is a black sable and cute as a button! Sorry for the long introductory post I just wanted to give a little background. I just started my second term as the secretary for our local ferret rescue. I just love the little fuzzbutts I also have 2 dogs and 2 cats.

Hi I'm Aaron, never had a ferret, but like I said long ago, it is more fortunate to have a ferret for 3 weeks and lose him/her, then to never get to have one in your life! At least thats my feelings and thoughts. Welcome to the forum! If your curtain this is your last, life is short, I'm shire we all wanna be their! I remember sleepless nights crying and praying for a ferret!
