Does anyone own a pet ferret?

[ratherastory]

Okay, flist, I know it's a weird question, but it's for SCIENCE!

Anyone out there with a ferret who'd be willing to chat with me about ferret habits/mannerisms/behaviours and the ins and outs of having a ferret as a pet?

Thanks in advance!

I've never owned a ferret, I am just registering the possibilities that the query combined with the "zombies improve any story" tag raise in my mind. You are writing zombie ferrets, y/y? Possibly Sam is allergic to zombie ferrets and there is respiratory distress? Or Dean trips over a zombie ferret and fucks up his leg? Or both these things?

LOL

Nah, that was just me being silly. It's for a H50 fic. :)

H50 fic with ferret? <3 I'm so impatient now!

Yup. It's still coming together in my head, but it should be cracky and fun. :)

I think there's a correspondence between cat allergy and ferret allergy, although ferrets have a lot less dander.

Poor Sammy...
