The ferret is a much-maligned and misunderstood animal, widely believed to be a smelly, quarrelsome, amoral, biting beast. However, this stereotype couldn't be further from the truth.

Ferret Day, celebrated every year on April 2nd, promotes the true virtues of this cute, cuddly critter and furthers the welfare of ferrets everywhere.

The age old question of "how much food could a hamster fit inside their cheeks?," is being answered thanks to BBC Earth!

Do you have a cat that needs entertainment and distraction from the furnishings?
Then this idea by the Mad Scientist Home Workshop project is the purrfect solution for you!
This transit system goes around three sides of the room, with one end giving the cat access to the top of a display cabinet. It also includes some windows so that your cat can have some view of the room while enjoying the walkway. And what we really like about this idea is that it does not consume valuable space for the family since it is installed on parts of the house barely used or occupied.
And as you can see from these photos, we have one happy customer.
