I Love Ferrets!
Hey all, I just wanted to tell you a quick story of the ferret brigade.
On the weekend me, my wife, my dog and two out of our five ferrets went for a walk, we had no idea where, but we wanted to walk, so you know what, we did!
As we got a bit further one of our ferrets started to look a little tired so we decided to head on back, they were absolutely loving the walk though. In the end we had to carry our ferret because he was so sleepy, but there is nothing better than a ferret cuddle so we didn't mind. Further a long the walk our dog even started to get tired, now if you knew our dog this is very unlike him, it was only because we had taken him for a huge walk the day before.
I just wanted to share this story of The Ferret and The Dog as opposed to The Tortoise and The Hare, if you have any stories of your ferrets then send them into us @ferretscare on twitter or info@ferretscare.org
I hope you had a great weekend like we did!

Back to Work!
Hey all, back to work again, thinking of our lovely little fuzzies at home waiting for us to return!
Last night I saw the cutest image of my ferrets, one was sleeping slightly on top of the other like they do, and they were asleep touching noses!I tried to quickly run upstairs and get the camera, but by the time I came back down they had moved, they never move normally when they are asleep, hehe.
Oh well I will get some more cute pictures soon and get the ferrets onto the web once again, tonight I might try and get a video of them, if they will stay still that is.I hope you all had a good weekend, continue sending us your fun ferret stories and we could put them on our website if they are interesting enough (if they are about ferrets then they are going to be interesting enough!)

The Story Of Buffy The Ferret
Buffy is my favorite ferret of all time, I know we shouldn't have favorites but well she is!
She unfortunately passed on a couple of years ago, but she was the kindest sweetest ferret I have ever met, she never complained once! hehe.
She would lick your nose or lick vitamin paste off your finger and never ever bite, not even remotely open her mouth just poked her tongue out to lick the vitamin paste.
We got her three brothers to play with, but one of them was extremely nasty, so in the end we built a brand new cage for her and got her a sister, they loved each other!
Her sister was called Kat and she was lovely too although she did have a thing about toes and wanted to nibble them!I thought I would share with you the story of my favorite ferret of all time, if you have any favorite ferret stories then please email us: info@ferretscare.org or leave a comment below.I hope you enjoyed this post, cya soon - Rob Stevens.

Ferret Ramblings
I would love to know if ferrets love people more than dogs, they really do appreciate seeing their owners and have a great look on their face when they can see you. One of the main reasons I love ferrets is that they will wander off a little bit and be really curious, but they love nothing more than the attention of their mom and dad!
They just love to be around us, they will try to play with us all the time and constantly try to get us to let them out of their cage even if we are going to work!Does any one have any comments or discussions regarding this?I think one of the magic things about ferrets is their constant need for attention, some people see this is a problem when looking after them when in fact it should be seen as one of the benefits of having a ferret!I hope you enjoyed this little rambling about ferrets, if you need anymore information then check out our Ferret Guide page.Ferret Guru - Rob Stevens!
