If anyone has any information about what this little guy might have, please help out!
I have a ferret that has an odd skin problem. The Vet said it could be anything from mites to some kind of fungal infection to adrenal disease. The black areas are where she took a biopsy…
Hey, I have a tough question which I wonder what your thought is on it, I live in California and have 3 ferrets and I love them, they have their own bedroom so they are free roamers, but I have often thought, I don’t know if I would want Ferrets legalized!!! Now hear me out, this is a tough one.
It’s really hard to get a good photo of a ferret unless they are sleeping, then you can take all the shots you want and they won’t care one bit.
Here is a really great shot with some nice color, a little accent and no blur! I thought everyone would enjoy it on your ferret blog.

Ferret dancing is a unique behavior of all pet ferrets. The dance of joy is a sure sign of complete and pure happiness and is a brilliant performance to watch. The ferret war dance is hard to distinguish as it has all of the same characteristics as the dance of joy, even the arching of the back which is a ferrets way of making him look bigger and scarier, but an angry ferret usually sends a warning in the form of hissing or screeches. Very angry or frightened ferrets will also let loose a musk spray bomb to ward off any unwanted situations. If your ferret appears to be frightened or angry, make sure to approach it with caution, they can be prone to fear biting if they feel scared or threatened, which is a natural protection mechanism for the little furballs.
The ferret war dance is a sign of a frightened or angry pet, be careful if your pet ferret is displaying some aggression and doing this dance. It is a good idea to evaluate what might be making your pet feel uneasy, remember, this is their way of trying to tell you something. On the other hand, if they are doing the dance of joy, then enjoy their display of happiness and in knowing that they are content with you and their home.
The video below is a wonderful display of ferret dancing, in one form or another. These little animals are a pleasure to watch as they play and challenge each other in their natural way of ferret dancing.
Legalizeferrets.org continues to fight for the rights of ferrets and ferret owner’s in California. One of the many ways they do this is by offering a variety of products through their Ferret Store. They also have a Fan Club where members get updates on the latest news with legislation and interesting articles. If you would like to help them in their efforts to bring California out of the dark ages and save our furry friends, then take a look at what they have to offer. Remember, it’s for a good cause.
Ferret owners are surely familiar with their pet having what is known as the frizzed-out look, or the frizzed-out tail. This look is a sign of excitement in your pet ferret, weather it be good or bad…
Over the past few months, I’ve read several sad stories of people in distress due to the current economy. Many people have lost their once lucrative jobs, including myself. Unemployment helps somewhat, but the sad truth is that it’s just not enough for many of us, especially here in Southern California where the price of everything keeps going up, even in this time of high unemployment.
This little Ferret is getting a dose of eye drops.
