Just a fun question.  How long have you been a ferret owner for? I know some on here have been owners for a long time, while others a short time. Length of ownership doesn't define how good of an owner anyone is IMO, but it's fun to know how long someone has been a ferrent. For me, it will be 4 years on October 11th. I only know the day because that's the day I adopted my first ferret, Neichei. I have all their gotcha days written down. What's your ferrent-anniverssary? |

Ponce came home to us in 2006. My only regret is that I didn't discover ferrets sooner.  |

I will have been a ferret owner for 7 weeks today (sat) I had worked with ferrets years ago and wanted some as pets but circumstances were not right for them until now My fuzbuts came to me when I needed them most:) They will be 16 weeks old on Sat - they grow & eat so much |

ninjagoth, Aw are they the ones in your picture? They're SO cute! I've always wanted a kit. I've only adopted adults that were 2yrs and up. Not sure if I'll be getting a kit or not, but it really tugs at my heart strings when I see them  |

I've only had my first 2 for almost 7 months, I got them in the middle of February. I wanted one years ago but never did get any until this year. Better late than never.

I had the pleasure of becoming a ferret on Feb. 3rd 2009.I never knew just how fast or hard I would fall in love with my woozles. They are by far the best companion animal on the face of the planet. My hubby and human kiddoes are very much in love with my little ones as well. My husband constantly spoils the ferts. Every time I turn around,he has either made or bought them things. Its pretty awesome to have someone as compassionate as he is about our little furry children. Him and Buster were laying on the bed yesterday just looking at the screen on our smart phone. I wish I could have found my camera at the time. It was very cute. I wouldn't trade my time as a ferrant for anything in this world.

Think it was August (although may have been July) 1997!

I got my first 2 in May of this year (2014) and just recently got another from a client at my work. I am a vet tech and the lady that gave her to me is battling cancer :/ So she didn't want Bella to get neglected in the time she has to travel for treatments. From Idaho to Maryland.. long way for treatments and could be gone for weeks at a time.
I love them so much, just wish I could let them free roam my house and minus the messy cage, but that isn't possible until we move to another place (which I hope is sooner than later).

It will be 7 years for me in mid September. My lovely wife got her first in 2006. I think we're up to 25 total over those years, including rescues.
