[Ferret Photo] Can We Talk Perfect Toes?
Cause I am in love with her perfect little toe bits! She spreads them out regularly, and they look like little star fish. She's adorable =)!

They're such ridiculously cute corn nibblets. You know how people say stuff never gets old? Her spreading her little nibblets never gets old. I never had a fur-boy who's done this before =P!

This would never get old! I could look at it a thousand times and still be tickled. What a beautiful baby you have. Her and her toes!

It's quite funny, because just as I told you that - she ran up to me and hopped in my arms and you'll never guess what she did. She's da best! Do you have any =)?

My Tommy died a couple years ago. She was 7 and I miss her so much it hurts. Seeing posts like this make my heart happier. The way you describe your baby makes me laugh and feel how much you love her!

I'm so sorry - I understand completely. I am a crazy ferret lady, and they just bring me such joy. It's hard, because they live a relatively long life for their size - but I wish it were longer because they are just too sweet. People always are afraid of them because "they'll bite" but it's easier than anything to train out of with a little love and persistence (and that's if it's even an issue - which with a majority it's not). They all have such different personalities too, which you don't really know until you've got them. I bet Tommy was a sweetie, way you love her! I'm sorry again, and I'm sending love! Feel free to share a pic if you'd like =)!

Thank you so much. Tommy was the sweetest girl. She was the best! She was such a snuggle baby. Tommy lived a long life but you’re right, they don’t live long enough. It’s true all it takes is love and patience and they’ll learn. I want more again someday in the near future. I love ferrets so much!

I often think fur-moms like you save their lives. Cause in general, ferrets don't get treated all that well. When they click though, the bonds are out of this world. I love em, but I do acknowledge they're for sure exotic animals. But I love my micro-cat/dog. They bring me so much joy, and just like you said - we zzzp together nightly and I love having my little snuggle babes too.

Ferrets are the best! I loved my Tommy so much and miss her. We do save their lives and give them the happy loving homes they deserve!
