wanting a ferret

[gemgem]

Hi all

first great site full of good information

i am wanting a ferret(s) for me and my children, and so i have a few questions

I have kept hamsters and rats, and i am wanting something a bit bigger. I also have a cat. I wanted to know how a ferret would act with a cat, my cat was interested in the hamsters and rats but never hurt them or touched them just sat and watched.

I still have my old rat cage which is very large stands about a meter high and two foot across and a foot deep (rough guess) which im planning on using. i live in a massonette

I also cant travell farand i dont drive and i dont want a 'pet shop' ferret so would rescue ferret(s) be good for a first one.
