This is the oddest trade request I've seen so far on Craigslist.

I browsed the local ads here and some people sell stuff like a piece of string with a couple knots and some huge plastic beads on it that their 2nd grader made for 50 cents.

If I still had a ferret I'd make that trade. They are cool and all but kinda a pain to take care of.

I assume it depends on how often you wash those little bastards. My limited exposure was to some (wet-dog)^2 smelling ferrets.

and they get sick and die too easily. Both the ones my aunt died from cancer. They were smelly, tumor infested rodents.

They don't spray if you have them neutered. My great aunt had one instead of a dog. She was an exceptional hill billy.

They don't spray because the domestic ones are de-scented soon after birth. :p A friend has had several, and has two right now.
