Re: Walter


Alex, after reading why, I think you were right in your decision. Ferrets really are happier with other ferrets to keep them company. I will pitch in for you-- they really are high maintenance--there needs to be just the right circumstances for it to work. It was selfless of you to place him and it sounds like he is just going to have a ball playing with all those furry munchkins...a constant party, I think. Take heart, you did what was right for him ((hugs))

Re: Walter


Thank you everyone for your kind words. Still feel awful about it and I'm dreading monday when I take him to his new home. But I know he'll be so much happier there with playmates. Just off to the shops to buy him some chicken wings for one last feast before he leaves me.

Re: Walter


As others have said Alex, you have done the right thing for Walter and because you have been selfless about that you really shouldn't feel too bad, although you will miss him of course. ((((HUGS))))

Re: Walter


Well that's him safely delivered to his new home He took to the lady very well, no nipping at all. Had a wee lick of some ferretvite, so obviously thought he'd play nice lol. She showed me her lovely crew, and she'll be trying him in with the boys first of all over the next few days. If that doesn't work he'll be off to be snipped and popped in with his own harem!! So I think he'll be a very happy little fuzzie in his new home, but I am so going to miss that wee face
