Bottlebrush tail

July 005

I suspect Zoe was “playing” (ie kicking his butt) right before this picture was taken.

And then Zoe arrived

July 002

And Minsc looks like he’s pooping kibble. o.O;

Especially funny since he was panic-pooping every time Zoe got near him for awhile (a side effect of Ys’ aggression before she passed).

Note: I just reached June in my backlog of photos, so that’s why you’re just now seeing Zoe in any photos. Sorry!

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.
