After the loss of Houdini our family felt very empty and still does. We decided that having three ferrets was just weird. We decided to start casually looking for another ferret. I wanted another boy with darker coloring and Dan wanted another girl. I didn't really want to purchase a ferret from a pet store like we had with the others. I wanted to rescue a ferret who really needed a good home. We ended up finding a ferret on ksl.com who could no longer stay at her current home. Dan fell in love with her instantly. Her owner had a chihuahua who was actually allergic to the ferret. The owner had only had the ferret for a month, and got her when she was 3-4 months. We drove all the way to Clearfield to get her. Dan picked her up and she instantly gave him nose licks a.k.a. kisses. Out of all 8 ferrets Houdini was the only one who would do this. We decided we had to take her. Her previous owner was very concerned we wouldn't give her enough attention and play time. We assured her she would since our ferrets are rarely locked in their cage and basically have free roam of their room. Ferrah was so good and rode the whole way home in her cage. She is very small, which is to be expected since she is a girl and they are smaller. She is also very talkative and makes ferret dooking noises all the time. She is extremely active and loves to play. Our other ferrets are struggling to keep up with her. All of our toys also seem to fascinate her. However I am not enjoying litter box training her. She will be my fifth ferret to train and definitely the hardest. She is hard to take pics of since she is so small and fast. These are the best ones we have:
