If you look back on pet general abut a month ago (right around then) there were a couple posts explaining the tasks of a ferret owner.

I also reccomend maybe visiting a shelter to get info & a must... the ferret bible "ferrets for dummies" the best ferret book out there. Most libraries have it so you can read it before you get a fuzzie (ferret) but I reccomend you purchase one should you decide to get a ferret.

Also ferretstoreforums.com is a great ferret learning site! Peak around there you are bound to learn a lot!

There is just so much about ferrets that i really didn't want to type it all over again LOL but if you can't find the posts or you have any other ?'s let me know.
