Customer Reviews
This book, published in 2001, gives a refreshingly straightforward approach, with modern day, non-patronising writing - thankfully avoiding a common problem among pet guides that write as though all pet owners are six years old. It contains not just 'aww' cutesy photos, but also health-related pictures, showing examples of common ailments. It raises thought-provoking questions (regarding finance, time, space etc) that make you question yourself and your options, whether thinking of buying a ferret, getting another one, moving them indoors/ outdoors or breeding.
It is a comprehensive book, covering not just the basics but also other topics including how to deal with deaf ferrets, common problems and cures plus suggested games for your ferret. I was most impressed by its warning regarding amplifiers and ferrets - in a house with half a dozen electric guitars, we had quickly realised that our ferret was very attracted to the hidey-hole that an amp provides! Alerting you to specific areas like this makes the book a fairly chunky, but not daunting, ferret bible. Ideal for anyone that's had even the slightest inkling about getting one of these "furballs" to those who have housed these cuties for years - an excellent reference full of ideas and facts.
This one is clear and informative with good pictures and a helpful
health information section with photos so you have an idea what
to look out for. Although, as with many ferret books its
american its not full of jargon or americanisms, its easy to understand.
Good tips on diet, feeding, housing and getting to understand and play with
your fuzzy.
I would highly recommend this book to new owners and old hands.
