In an effort
to give the ferrets a place to play and protect the house from them, and them
from Coco, Madison bought them a playpen with a plastic bottom.
They sure
are full of energy and love to play so I can see why you need more than one as pets.
Friend Joe
was here with his Pomeranian and he put her in the cage with them.
The ferrets
seemed pleased but Yawnee wanted out, while Coco was
running around the cage outside whining to get in.
I'm now
responding to your comments and hoping you will stop back by - photos best if
enlarged by clicking on them.
Have a great
day and thanks for stopping by Almost Heaven South.

Looks like y'all have a house full of four-legged love.

I hope it's not more than I can stand Sam.
DeleteI'm on Yawnee's side. :)
ReplyDeleteThe funniest part was watching Coco wanting to get into the pen.
DeleteThat is too funny!!
ReplyDeleteI bet this gives you lots of entertainment. Too funny.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've ever actually seen a ferret before...but they are adorable!
ReplyDeleteJenn, Penny, and Joanne - When I learned we were having them, I thought they were just a long rat, but they are a hoot to watch - like the otters playing on TV - they are friendly and fairly smart.
ReplyDeletePoor Yawnee, she did not want to play with those ferrets!
ReplyDeleteWay back a LONG time ago I had a roommate who had a ferret. Smelly little things but they are extremely playful & loveable.
ReplyDeleteTheir smell is the one big negative
DeleteI missed the addition of the ferrets to the Big Dude household. They'll keep the pups busy, no doubt!
ReplyDeleteMarjie - They are sure active little critters that Coco sees as playmates and Sweetie just ignores.
DeleteLarry, Nice playpen! Those ferrets are so active that you can't blame Yawnee for wanting to head for a safe haven... With everything going on at your house, what about a pen with a recliner in it just for you and your sanity?! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
ReplyDeleteI like that idea - my early morning quiet time is even more valuable to me than before.
DeleteI doubt that you have too many dull moments around your house nowadays.
ReplyDeleteLike George said, you probably don't have any dull moments around your home!!!!! Ferrets, huh????? Love the playpen!!!!
ReplyDeleteHope you two are doing okay...

Betsy & George - Life around here is definitely busier.
DeleteThey must keep you and themselves entertained for hours! My only problem with them is the potty training :)
ReplyDeleteOur two chinchillas quit wanting out of their large cage once the cat moved into our house. So is she still doing all of the care for them or has that chore shifted to you? Seems like every time a kid gets a pet, the adults end up doing the work, right?
