My guys get outside everyday but if it rains...they go nuts. I want to go in because I'm getting soaked but they absolutely love it and dance and wrestle like crazy, so being the sap I am, I stay out and get drenched...maybe you need a rainy day!

We have never taken Rico out in the rain but I know he loves water! When I am taking a shower he will sometimes surprise me and hop in! Hopefully we will get some rain soon and I will see how Rico likes it!

It's weird because he doesn't like the meat flavor but he loves the Banana and raisin flavor! What a silly goose he is! Rico has a LOUD personality. I am the complete opposite. But when I go out with little Rico in public he makes me a social butterfly!

So glad he has cheered up again. Any news on the little girl ferret you were interested in?

Aww, I couldn't find out what exactly happened, but I'm so happy Rico is getting his spunk back! Lately my princess Zoey will lay next to me and look depressed. .. Until we give her a treat! She lights up, begs for more, runs and dooks with the others! (I'd like to get her "off" the bandit treats since they aren't very good for them... but until I switch them to raw, they can have their "crack") I hope things work out with the little girl this weekend! I look forward to hearing how it goes!

I look forward to hearing how it goes! Aww! I don't like to give Rico treats for the same reason that's why I stopped buying them but he LOVES them just like your little Zoey. I hope it works out aswell. Rico really needs her.

I hope it works out and Rico finds true love. If it doesn't and Rico stays an only ferret, he will be fine. He's happy in his safe and loving home with good ferrants.

Update: Rico has gotten SO much better! There has been so much improvement!! We took him down to the local pet smart and bought him some ferret banana treats! He has been so happy ever since! Who would have thought that something as small as banana flavored ferret treats would bring so much happiness to his life! I'm so glad I have my sweet Rico baby back! Or maybe it was just the trip to the Pet Store in general that lifted his spirits? When we recently took Serenity and Malcolm with us on a visit to a local Petco, they both got REAL excited, and then when we came back home and set them loose in their playroom, they just went completely bonkers! Far more excited then I had ever seen them! They got so excited and played so hard, that we've started talking about taking them out to that Petco more often. (dance)

Didn't think about that! He did get super excited but we always take him out to the pet store. Even when we take Zeus. Who knows. I'm just glad he's better!

Perhaps he is just overly sensitive and holds a grudge for a long time regarding the altercation with the other ferret.
Taz will get all butthurt after an accidental altercation with Koufos. He just speedbumps (flat ferret) for the rest of the day. He is normally himself after a nap though.
Anyways glad to see he is back to his normal fun loving self.
as for treats I am constantly harassed by Mogwai, Taz, and bleu for fresh raw chicken breast strips. Whenever I am in the kitchen cutting up chicken Mogwai is the first to perch up on his hind legs and beg, then if I don't see him he will scratch my leg then perch up on his hind legs again. once I give him a piece he dances off and the others come up to me and go where's mine.

Ferrets are kinda like toddlers then!? They want candy (treats), they throw temper tantrums (ferret speed bumps) and everything is theirs! Yes ferrets are just like toddlers!
