>>263175 no there not the maintenance of a dog or cat... there MORE!!! i have had all three animals and the ferrets are by far more work! ferret proofing the house is a constant. vet bills are more expensive becouse although they are the 3rd most common pet in America, they are still considered "exotic" pets, and exotic vets are a BITCH! not only to find a good one, but there prices are ridiculous! Ferret food is way more expensive (unless u have some huge dog) the upkeep on them is like having a puppy all its life, litter box trained or not, you still have accidents, and cage cleaning is a daily thing! i know it sounds like im bashing ferrets and think dogs and cats are WAY better, but i don't! i have 3 ferrets right now, and I've fostered my fair share, and they are the best little monsters around, but they are SO much work! i wouldn't trade them for the world! but i help out at a local ferret shelter and 99% of the ferrets surrendered are becouse the people had no clue as to what they were getting into. and its heart breaking to see people who love there animals give them up becouse they don't have the time for them. just please please PLEASE know what your getting into! they are well worth the work, if it dosnt catch you off guard!
