Ferrets Magazine Stops Printing

Journal Entry: Thu Oct 25, 2007, 9:52 AM
  • Mood: Mesmerized
  • Listening to: The Yogie container shake
  • Reading: Ferrets for Dummies
  • Watching: the tail ahead of me in the tunnel
  • Playing: With everything and anything
  • Eating: kibbles, yogies, bandits.. mmm
  • Drinking: water of course!
If you havent heard, Ferrets Magazine will be ending with the March/April issue. After that if you want anything ferrets related you will have to go to FerretsMagazine.com..

Alot of people are very angry with this (as am I) because theyre not offering money back for people who have resubscribed to a new year and are asking that everyone just pick a new magazine (such as Farm Hobbiest, or Young Riders Bi-Monthly) to finish off their subscriptions. Another thing is the fact that the magazine will be digital now and what of the people who go to the store and buy the magazine because they dont have a computer or the internet to read things online? Apparently Ferrets Magazine doesnt have any answer except that "it'll be cheaper for them to do it online"..

Voices are being raised at quite a few ferret forums. Most people at the FerretsMagazine.com forum are quite angry, and of course people over at The Lazy Hammock are saying what they think. The Lazy Hammock is home to Father Nature, who runs a shelter in New Jersey, who was selling magazine subscriptions as a fundraiser for the shelter's sicker and older ferrets. He sold almost 50 subscriptions to Ferrets Magazine and now he doesnt know if he'll even get that fund raiser money because theyre stopping the magazine.

Everyone is hoping that maybe, just maybe, they'll see that putting it on the net is a bad idea... Im going to miss seeing the bi-monthly centerfolds by Jean Carley and seeing the Picture Perfect contests... We can all just hope that they realize their mistake...

:cake: Ferrety Birthdays :cake:
A little calender to let people know when your little fuzzy is celebrating his or her birthday! If you want to add your ferrets name to the calender just note the club with the subject "ferrety bdays" and send the dates a names of the ferrets you wish added. When a ferrets bday is comming up, or on that day a little :star: will show up next to their name.

((if you dont have papers to tell when your ferrets bday is, you can use the day they came to live with you, unless you have a guess-ta-mit to when their big day is))

The Ferrety Bday List has been moved to its own special page! Our ferret family is getting so big that it was starting to take up the whole front page. [link]

It doesn't matter, proper ferret shampoo or NOT.

If you bathe often, you strip the oils ferret shampoo or regular shampoo. That will make them smell more. I know what I'm talking about, trust me. I've had ferrets for a long time.

No, baths don't help. They make it worse.

Baths strip the natural oils of a ferrets skin and coat. This messed up all the PH balance in their bodies and makes their little bodies work OVER TIME to make more musky oils to replace what you've removed.

It makes them smell more. My ferrets only get a bath once or twice a year unless they get into something really nasty. My dark ferret Roland likes to play in water. He's got a pan of water to dig in and play in but no soap.

~LarissaAllen:iconLarissaAllen: Jul 11, 2007, 10:37:10 AM
Well I'll tell you the way it work is the quality of the food has a huge amount to do with their smell. Along with their living environment. Wood shavings retain odor and make ferrets smell. Low quality foods, and most cat food isn't even really appropriate for ferrets anyway can make them smell too. Frequent baths can also add to their odor.

I know, I'm sorry. I read stuff like this from people in the US too, that feed them table food and milk and dog food. I get so used to telling people the same thing. Then I realized you might be in the UK. I went and looked at your info afterwards but not much I could do at that point. Ferrets in the UK are fed, kept and viewed way different than they are in the US. It's sort of funny in a way too, UK ferrets live a lot longer and stay a lot healthier even living off a diet of milk and bread.

I'm too far out in the middle of no where to get to a pet store. I order a bag of Ultimate and a bag of Zupreem on ferretdepot.com.

*rinidarklight:iconrinidarklight: Jun 28, 2007, 6:01:57 PM
the local petstores only carry Ultra.. other than that its Senior Ferret Kibble and Marshalls for choices. Petco used to carry the Ultimate, but they like never have it in anymore. they get like 2 bags and when its gone its gone for like a month..

Holy crap dude.

Have you done any research on your ferrets nutritional needs at all?

Ferrets are lactose Intolerant. They are obligate carnivores. I know ferrets are kept differently in the UK but they're still ferrets. Lay off the milk and lasagna.

~LarissaAllen:iconLarissaAllen: Jun 28, 2007, 2:37:40 PM
You'd be better to ditch the Ultra and pick up a bag of Ultimate. Ultra is a lot less quality than Ultimate.

AS you can see Ultra only ranks a five. Not very high quality at all compared. The top eight nine and ten are the numbers you want to stick with.

no, its still against the law to have them in Cali.. but there are lots of groups over there thata re fighting to get them legalized as pets. if youre interested in owning a fert you should contact a group and see what you can do to help.. theyve got stupid reasons for them being illegal anyways
