boxerdogforum · 07-24-2004, 09:41 AM

Welcome Dollface

FIJ a Budgie is a Budgeriega(sp) bit like a canarie but blue and yellow

dollface · 07-24-2004, 11:32 AM

Yup its a little parakeet, if you go to my link you can see pics of them as well as the rest of our animals except for the rats, I don't have them up there yet

but soon I will.

Edit: just wondering why its says yorkshire terrier under my name?

Global Paw · 07-24-2004, 11:37 AM

Dollface, thats a user title, and the more posts you have, the bigger the dog will get.

Or, you can change it to your own unique user title by going into your profile in the usercp

Dollface, how are your ferrets? I was thinking of getting one several months ago before I ran into my dog Lucky

Do they make good pets? Also, I heard that they all usually get cancer....is this true?

dollface · 07-28-2004, 02:46 PM

No not all ferrets get cancer, guess just depends on the ferret...The two I have were going to be placed in the humane society and we took them. They are actually my son's he's 9 and they live in a 3 level chinchilla cage in his bedroom. We have a hamack, litter box, toys and of course food and water in there. He has to have 2 litter boxes in his room for when they are out running so actually they have the choice of 3 all together (they chose the corner and thats where the litter box stays), of course Im the one that scoops the litter

but thats ok they are so darn cute...They do make good pets once you teach them not to nip. They also need shots just like cats and if you have a cold or flue ect you don't want to cuddle them or really hold them cause you can give it to them and they can give it back to you, the only problem is that they do stay sicker longer so we just wash before and after we hold them if we don't feel to well, thats when they get held less. It depends on the person, to me they make great pets and I don't mind the musky smell. If your interested in learning more about ferrets check out Mercia ferrets, I think there is a lady on their that tries to find homes for ferrets. She know a great deal about them. They would be able to answer your question/s alot better then I. I prefer them to cats, they remiind me of a kitten that never grows up
