For those of you who don't know my situation, I am 16 and currently live with my dad. My mother and I left her boyfriends place and are waiting for our current renter to move out of our house, which we rented to her close to two years ago. She has to be out by March 1st. So for the time being I am staying with my dad and she's staying with her mom (my grandma.) When I was in grade seven I owned a female sable named Tanuki.
Her as a kit ^
My dad bought me everything. I didn't work one bit for that ferret.. At that time I was living with my mom and the boyfriend, and Tanuki was at my dads (since my mom hated the smell..) It wasn't fair to her, she didn't get enough attention or playtime.. So I rehomed her to an older girl named Krista who owned another sable ferret named Meeka.
Tanuki, full grown, before I rehomed her.
I won't make a novel out of this.. But of course my love for ferrets never left. So, I am now 16 in grade 10 and I know I have the time and dedication for a ferret. This is the thing though.. I am moving in with my mom in March and she made her mind up. She doesn't want one in the house. I have a cage, litter box, hammy, toys, dishes, bedding, pillows, litter.. All I need is the ferret, food, ear cleaning solution, hairball remedy, and her approval..
I have 400$ leftover for the ferret and everything else I will need.
My dad and I talked, and he agrees I have matured and grown alot and that it is time for me to purchase another one..
SO, I wrote my mom a 4 page letter, attached pictures of the cage and told her how I could help minimize the musk, etc. I gave it to her last night when we hung out, and I KNOW she read it that night before she went to bed. She still hasn't said anything, no text, call, email, nothing. So I'm pretty nervous. :\
Wish me luck?
