Yes you are right, but when I got my Ferret he was the last available in the litter, so I couldn't get another from that litter as they were all reserved (he was originally but the person who reserved him disappeared). I was having a hard time finding anyone near me, so wasn't able to find another Ferret litter near me to get him a friend (most people were 100+ miles from me). I have been advised now to maybe wait until he is castrated before I get him a friend... I doubt I will be able to find him a kit friend now (I had a hard enough time finding him back in May this year) but if anyone knows of any near me then please let me know! I could find him an unwanted adult, but I doubt it will be neutered, then they could fight, well the older un neutered male could attack my 'kit'... and two whole hobs together can cause fights. I'm not willing to take that risk. So I am either going to wait until he is castrated and find hime a castrated male or spayed female, or if I can find a spayed female to put with him now. He is about 15 weeks, and he is already pretty feisty... he's going through the 'teen' stage lol.

I have owned Ferrets before, well I say me... it was my parents many years ago. My Ferret lives indoors and gets at least 6 hours a day free roam in the house a day(supervised). I know that isn't the same as another ferret to play with, but right now it might be the best option until he is castrated at 6 months old and I can find him a suitable friend.

PS I forgot to add, I have previously looked at 'local' Ferret centers and either they have none in, or they have ones that need to be homed alone? maybe because they haven't been well looked after so aren't good with other Ferrets. If I do take on an older no longer wanted or rescue Ferret I am going to have to be as sure as possible they will be a good match first.
