You know, I bet you could spell out things with sleeping ferrets…

In the end, they’d probably just spell out “play?” though. 😛

There's a monster in my pants…

Yes, I like to reuse old/unused clothing items for the ferrets. And for the OCD…the boxers are new ones that wouldn’t fit pogle. 😛

Why you should always check your pants before putting them on.

Such a comfy chair.

Jack Jack obviously thinks other ferrets = furniture. 😛

In case you’re wondering what the black thing that they’re laying is….it’s a baseball cap. xD

WARNING: Ferrets are not for everyone

1.) For their own safety, ferrets should not be allowed to roam free in the house without supervision. Ferrets have far too much curiosity and not enough sense of self preservation.
2.) Ferrets should have 1-4 hours of playtime every day (how much really depends on your ferret; mine pass out after 1 to 2 hours). A playpen will work in a pinch, but a ferret-proofed room in your house is preferable. They love to run (and to be chased)!
3.) Ferrets do not live very long in the US (on average only about 6 years). They are also very prone to health issues. There *will* be vet bills. Minion cost us $600 when he had a blockage from ingesting part of a couch, and that's *without* surgery.
