If I could own any animal besides or a dog or a cat, it would definitely be a ferret! They are sooooooooo cute! I like all small animals like birds, rats, gerbils, rabbits, etc. but the only one I can really picture myself getting is a ferret. Actually I was begging my parents to let me get one a while ago. That was before I got Nebo. I've given up now, as my hands are already plenty full. My friend, Cassie, has a pure white one named Tacoma. She's really sweet very interested in sniffing everything! lol. My mom thinks they are mean because my sister's old boyfriend had one.......it jumped up and hissed at her. Tacoma has never bit at anyone, I think it just depends on the ferret and owner.
