Ferret eats seven fingers of baby

[Texashiker]

I'am kinda speechless. Surely the baby was screaming during the ordeal and the parents could not hear the cries or screams?

nom?

Ferrets are gross smelly animals. Why would you ever want one as a pet.

 

[her209]

Idiot parents are idiots. Leaving a baby with an animal, even a domesticated one, is just plain idiocy.

Babies are gross and smelly too.

The mother was awakened at 2:30 a.m. Monday to her baby's crying, and she awakened her husband with screams upon discovering what happened, Ambrose said ...

...The parents said "they never heard the baby crying" until late into the ordeal, Ambrose said. "Who knows what's going on there.

no only after a nice plop in their pants. Ferrets smell terribly 24-7. They have no redeeming qualities.

also babies aren't taken as pets.

So you came out perfect from the get go?

I had two ferrets for a number of years. Getting them de-scented is a must, and proper attention to litterbox waste removal kept them as odorless as any other pet. They were a lot of fun, IMO.

Having said that, baby fingers are delicious.

Nope, I was smelly and gross too.

Clearly it was a Republican Ferret....

The same can, and should be said about politicians. Well... all of it except the last part.

it did what a ferret does. It's a wild animal. You kooks that think they should be house pets get what you deserve.

oh I'm not denying the delicacy that is fresh baby fingers.

they need to use stems cells to harvest these tasty treats.

Do they taste anything like buffalo wings?

Ummmm, bar-b-que hot and spicy buffalo wings.

wow...

Dogs have been reported to have done the same thing. Should we apply the kook label to all dog owners too?

 

[piasabird]

Pets are evil. A Ferret is a wild animal.

A similar incident from a couple of years ago:
http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/story?id=7986040&page=1

Police say Darnell's nearly 9-foot-long python apparently escaped from its aquarium and strangled the 2-year-old in her bedroom.

This is why certain animals should not be pets. Stupid parents + wild animals = dead or injured children.

There's a reason I'm trying to find a new home for one of MY dogs right now.

 

[Scotteq]

You're afraid the Republican Ferrets will eat them?

 

[irishScott]

Clearly it was a Republican Ferret....

Dammit you just got this stuck in my head again.

 

[3chordcharlie]

The parents are under investigation for not getting a license for the ferret.

Because clearly that is the main issue.

How many more times does this have to happen?
