I've had a few over the years, and really enjoyed them as pets. My first pair I "split" with my freshman roommate - he wound up taking them home with him at the end of the school year...then never returned to school.

By my junior year, I had 2 more. Technically, my roommate (different person) bought them, but he NEVER took care of them. They were my buddies. I took them home with me after graduating college and eventually had to give them up 'cause my mother absolutely hated having them there (she's obsessively clean). I bathed the buggers regularly, she just couldn't get over the "love nuggets" they'd leave in the corners.

My male ferret, Lupus, was the BEST! (He's the one out of the hammock) He'd sit on my lap when I read the paper, follow me from room to room...he was a people ferret. He died about a year ago from leukemia...RIP to one badass ferret.
