Bored + trying to tame Spencer's monitor = ferret leash walks

[leighroyaus]

Well, was a tad hung over and a bit bored. Been trying to tame down the Spencer's before he gets too large etc.

Walking threw the pet shop getting some crickets for the frogs I see a ferret lead for 10 bucks. Brilliant idea springs to mind.

This is the result.

Now to get him better at walking!
Neighbourhood cats are about to get a touch up.

if he let you put the harness on... i think hes prob pretty tame.. my girls would give you the good old one two for even considering it!

Pretty cool

Oh, he's never tried to bite since I've had him, just a lot of huffing an puffing and tail whips. But deciding toget him out of that habit and before he does realise he can bite, he's 4 years old ATM.

Looks interesting. Nice bit of environmental enrichment. I tried something similar with my Lacie female but just ended up standing at the bottom of a tree with a lead over my head while passers by gave me confused looks!

Just dont leave them tethered using just the ferret harness. They can get out of them very easily. Someone knows what I'm talking about.

I tried that with my sandy. We were walking around the back yard and all was going well until a magpie swooped him... Now I just need to show him the lead and he does the bolt and hides under the couch!
