A wonderful lady called Cass who breeds ferrets in Bendigo has a number of youngsters still available from this season’s litter so I said I’d put the word out on her behalf.

If there are any ferret people in Victoria who are looking to increase their family, or people who want to be first-time ferret owners, then contact me and I’ll give you her name and phone number.
She is a super person, always eager to do the best for both the mothers and the kits, so even though I haven’t seen her kits personally, I know they’re all healthy, beautiful little ferrets who are much loved and well socialised.
I was sooooo keen to get a couple of her kits but we live in the West and the quote I got from a pet transport company to ship 2 kits from Bendigo to Perth was pretty impressive.  Over $800! Aaargh!!  
I thought that quote was pretty steep.  In fact, it probably would be cheaper if I flew to Bendigo and brought the kits back myself.  
I got to thinking about that and thought what fun it would be to fly over to Melbourne for the weekend, hire a car and drive to Bendigo and say hi to Cass face-to-face.  We only know each other through emails so it’d be lovely to meet her and then I can pick out my own babies and bring them back home.  Now that would be a real buzz!    :-))  
I have written that goal down and told Cass to let me know when her 2009 litters become available.  It would be great to bring some new stock into Perth’s ferret world!  
Of course, that would give me an urge to turn to breeding again but I’m not sure Philip will be as keen.  I better start practicing my eyelash batting again  :-D
Here are a couple of pictures Cass sent me of some of her kits, taken when they were about 5 weeks old.  Aren’t they absolutely gorgeous?
