Neutering will also cut the musky smell and the staining to almost yellow on an albino

But would urge any hopeful new owner to find out as much as they can so that they can make an informed decision before taking on a ferret. They are a wonderul little animal that can live as long as dog!
I was also told be careful when handling your ferret when you have a cold as them and G-pigs are meant to be the only animals that can catch a human cold/flu. Which can be fatal. Is this correct. ?
