Domesticated. Or wild. That seems to be at the core of the argument. Some individuals hold the notion that ferrets are nothing “more than” wild animals. Our insistence to keep them as pets then is nothing less than cruel. At most, it's a futile attempt to tame an otherwise wild animal.
What many people don't realize, unfortunately -- even some who currently enjoy the shenanigans of these delightful creatures on a daily basis -- is that they are domesticated animals; domesticated polecats to be exact.
This means that the ferret you either currently have adopted, are thinking about adopting or your neighbor has adopted is a descendant of the wild polecats -- domesticated by humans many (many!) years ago!
