I'll have to look at our local shelters, never even crossed my mind that they may have ferrets.
Joe - The store that has them here they're already potty trained to an extent.

I think we bathed ours once a month or so. Not so much cuz they smelled bad, just to keep them clean. Buy Ferret shampoo to protect their coat. Also, we only fed them kitten food. IAMs if I remember right - low ash high protien.

If I could get photos off my razr I'd take a photo from the store but the program I have doesn't work with my phone 
And without paying $50 I can't find one that does... (program that is)
