Angora ferrets in Beijing
Well how about that! The Chinese have discovered the joys of ferret ownership and to date, there are over 600 angora ferret owners in Beijing. In fact, they have even started an Angora Ferret Club! I think that’s so neat! 
I must say that I’m surprised that ferrets have such a large fan club in China. Well, perhaps not surprised that the ferrets have charmed their Chinese owners but surprised that the Chinese are keen on having ferrets as pets.
Having grown up in Hong Kong in the 50s, I was forever rescuing kittens and puppies that I’d find wandering along the streets and I always had the impression that the Chinese weren’t animal lovers. But hey, that was many years ago and things change.
One thing for sure, if I ever return to my birth place, I will be making sure that I find time to get over to Beijing and will check out both the Xidan and Gulou stores to play with the ferrets

Hi. I hope this email finds you very well. I have just came across your site and I think that it is really good. I have been keeping ferrets for quite a while and planning to add another ferret to the family. I am keeping 2 jills and looking for another angora ferret to join the family. I was wondering if you do have some for sale. If you do please send information on how I am able to purchase from you as well as their colours and prices.
I look forward to your kind reply.
Best regards,
Glenn.
