Customer Reviews

An entertaining reference for all ferret lovers!

This book explains so much and gives many wonderful ideas! It is a wonderful compilation of columns from Modern Ferret Magazine. "The ferrets" explain mysteries of ferret behavior, give important safety-tips, and give great ideas to make life more fun for your ferret! The characters are funny and have developed personalities so real that I can picture them even without the pictures. If you like ferrets, I strongly recommend you get this book.

Ferrets Know Best!

I loved The Wit and Wisdom of the Modern Ferrets! Mary's literary formula of writing each chapter from the perspective of one of her own ferret's is not only informative but also a funny and enjoyable experience. The book offers the same 'wit and wisdom' as the Modern Ferret magazine and will delight real ferret lovers. This is not a 'how to raise a ferret manual for dummies" --but rather a users guide for people who know and love ferrets. I hope that Mary writes a novel from the perspective of her ferrets one of these days!

Ferrets on ferrets

This is a wonderful book for new ferrets owners and long time ferret enthusiasts as well! It's fun to read and VERY informative. Each chapter covers a separate topic so you can either skip around or read the book in order. Everything is written from the point of view of Mary and Eric Shefferman's ferrets, taken from columns that originally appeared in "Modern Ferret" magazine. Mary is a very well-respected ferret expert who has been writing about ferrets for a number of years. I highly recommend this book for anyone who loves ferrets--even if you've had ferrets for a long time, you'll pick up some solid information here. And the price is right too!
