I called the local pet store and they have ONE ferret for sale right now, $139. I know they aren't that much all the time and I could probably find one cheaper, or possibly even find one up for adoption that is older and already trained.
Anyway, I told Paulie today that I would like to get a ferret and then told him how much they were.
And he said those magical words, "Well if you want one, just save up for one."
*beams* =D
So it will probably be a very long time from now until we get one, but it's something to look forward to.
