it's proving kinda difficult though xP you have to do all these things before getting one in order to ensure that they have a happy and healthy life. you have to make sure, before getting a ferret, that a vet in your town can treat them and has experience with them. then you have to ferret proof the room, or if you're gonna let them run around the house, to make sure they don't harm themselves.
i got the vet part down, i called this morning and they do treat ferrets on a vet clinic that is close. i don't know yet whether i'll be adopting a ferret in need of a home or buying one from the pet shop. i'll have to wait to see if Ferrets Across America can help me bring one home, since i can't drive out of town myself and Lauro can't take me because of his work =[
what's a little sad, is that there's a chance i'll have to sell half of my pullip collection to make sure that my ferret has what he needs (their cages are expensive, lol) and to pay for their first vet visit and shots. after that i'll start a savings account for when they need something in the future.
I'm getting closer to getting a ferret. I decided to adopt instead of buying one at the pet store. There are many ferrets out there that get abandoned by their owners who didn't know anything about ferrets and just bought them on a whim because they looked cute. So, I decided to give a home to a fuzzy in need. There isn't an ferret rescue/adoption group here in Laredo, so the director of Ferret Waystation from Austin, TX is going to help me out, she's a very nice and helpful person. I might get to adopt two gorgeous ferrets if everything goes well.
So, my application to adopt two ferrets from Ferret Waystation in Austin Tx got accepted, and I'm getting this two gorgeous fuzzys. I'll be picking them up on September 1st. They already had names, but I don't like them much, so I'm changing them from Clifford and Jesse to Dobby and Luna =] My husband was kinda hesitant about me getting them because he's sort of scared of Luna's red eyes, lol. But I think he'll learn to love her once she's here. Dobby is a 3 year old sable, and Luna is a 10 month old albino.
My ferrets playing in the bed, also this is the first time i edit anything on windows movie maker. Jessie is the albino girl and Clifford is the sable boy.
