so i've had this ferret for about four months now and my g/f and i thought that "she" was getting lonely. we're out and about a lot more now that the weather's getting nicer, and we feel bad about leaving "her" alone in the apartment.
we went and picked "her" up a friend yesterday. our new ferret is named roslyn, and she's a cute little girl.
by now i'm sure you've noticed i've been putting all of the pronouns in reference to our first ferret in quotations. well i'll be damned if "she" isn't a he! when we got our first ferret we were told by the people at the pet store that it was a girl, so we just went with it. we named "her" margot and bought "her" all these pink and purple accessories.
it turns out male ferrets have verrry tiny penises that only look like a little bump on their bellies, almost like a belly button. we should have done some research online and figured this out for ourselves. needless to say, we feel pretty stupid.
so anyway, now that we've been giving margot a bunch of gender identity issues all this time, we've decided that the only way we're going to be able to re-wire our brains and stop thinking of him as a "her" is to give him a new name.
gimme some ideas, folks! (pretty please)
right now on the table are:
reggie
roscoe
oscar
and maybe marco (simply because it's already so close to margot)
