Answer:
Ferrets are good pets for people without children and are at home a lot. They are not like a cat or dog that you can leave alone for long periods of time. Ferrets require a lot of human interaction, and least 4 hours out of it's cage. It is not recommended to have a ferret if there are young children in the house, as ferrets can easily be hurt by them. And if you do have a ferret, children must be supervised at all times.
