I would LOVE to have a ferret. Id probably have to wait until the kitties go though, cant imagine that the kitties wouldnt try to do something to it. Only downside, ferrets stink. I have a friend that had one and it had its scent glands removed, and it STILL stank.

I would also LOVE a wolfdog. Wolf/dog hybrid. One of the lifeguards at my childhood summer camp had one and brought him in one day to give a talk about them. That was the freakin coolest thing I ever saw, and the wolfdog was SO SO friendly too.

I wonder who would win in a fight, a tarantula or a scorpion.

We had a "wolf hybrid" in this week for treatment-it was a husky

but the people insisted on calling it a wolf hybrid. I personally would not want a wolf hybrid-they can be liabilities and are banned in some areas.

I used to have a ferret. I loved him to death. One of the best pets I've had. Very smart, loved to cuddle, and also had an intense dislike of my dad (I never figured that one out because my dad was always trying to be nice to him). HIs name was Sammy. He loved Fruit Loops, Mountain Dew, vanilla ice cream, peppermint candy, and toast.

Oh yeah, I will never have one but I love them. They are WAY WAY too much work though and the responsibility and liability that comes with one is way more than I want to undertake, but I sure would love it if I had a huge piece of property, miles away from anyone, and could contain one properly.
