The Complete Book of Ferrets

This book is a comprehensive guide to the care of ferrets, with advice for both the professional ferret keeper and the pet owner. It seeks to destroy once and for all the myths, prejudices and misconceptions that have always surrounded ferrets. Working ferrets have always been cheap to keep and perhaps that is why they have often been misunderstood and treated with less respect than they deserve. The majority of ferret keepers do try to do the best for their animals, but even they may fail because they do not know enough - and cannot find out - about the ferret's needs. This book explains everything - choice, origins, character, handling, working and ferrets as pets.
