Understandably, ferrets are not meant for everyone. There seems to be some negative bias towards ferrets – especially if you have them as pets – but there’s absolutely no need for that. For the right person, a ferret can be a wonderful, playful and absolutely loving pet.

You do have to keep regulations in mind, however, as ferrets aren’t allowed to be kept as a pet in the entire country. In California, for example, it is only allowed to keep neutered and male ferrets in the house, and you also can’t keep a ferret in a household with a small child in Carson City, Nevada. New York City’s health board has also banned ferrets entirely. It’s important that you take your precautions and make sure the furry little animals don’t manage to escape.

A couple of ferret lovers around the globe shared some incredibly adorable pictures of their furry friends which definitely prove why ferrets in the house can be a great addition. Ferrets are curious and intelligent animals by nature, and their attitude is mostly friendly. They might require a bit of attention from their owner, but their affection more than makes up for it. The animals are also small, their cage requires little maintenance and can even be litter trained.

Here are just a couple of awesome ferret pictures that’ll make your heart melt.

Just like us humans, they’ll yawn considerably if they become sleepy and it’s a cute sight to behold.

Even though this little ferret is absolutely tiny compared to his fellow pets in the house – a trio of dogs – he still feels like one of them and even plays with them regularly.

Now okay, ferrets can’t always be super friendly. But if they have got something to say, they’ll probably just stick their tongue out and show a little bit of rudeness, albeit in a cute manner.
