I am considering the idea of getting my 15 year oldl daughter a Ferret as a present, but I have had bad experiences with cats and dogs in the past...unable to litter train, vomit problems, I even had a cat who always bit me when I tried to pet her. Do you think some people just aren't good at having pets? Is it something like having a good greenthumb for growing plants? Do you have to have a calling or a knack for having pets? Would a Ferret be a good choice to have a pet?
My daughter absolutely would love to have one because I had told her that Ferrets need a lot of playtime, holding and affection and that they die of sadness if you do not cater to them all day long. I am also worried about if to have it in a cage and take it out daily or if it is better to let them roam free around the house all the time. I am also concerned about trainning to ise a litterbox...Is it like trainning a cat? How much does a Ferret cost? How much per year it costs?
Thanks,
Possible Ferret Gifte
