Seriously, these are MY ferrets. My mom got them on Craig's List last summer (sicne my sister wanted ferrets as pets), and the original owners took a picture of them sleeping on a rug in the shape of a heart.

My friends were decorating my locker, and one of the images they put up was a drawing of two ferrets sleeping in a heart. I said, "my ferrets were in the shape of a heart when we saw them on Craig's List..."
I went on Google and searched up "ferrets in the shape of a heart," and they were the first few results! This is so crazy. 😱
Spoiled ferrets, they even have their own mug!

@dreamer

Your ferrets are stars. O.O

They are super cute like that though. My cats did that once, when they were little. It looked more like a ying and yang heart though, because my male cat is a blond orange tabby, and my female is a very very dark calico with tiny white paws. So, you get the picture. XD

How old are they?

@April_ I'm not exactly sure. But on a fansite, the picture was apparently posted 4 years ago. O.o I think they're around 5 or 6. They looked like babies or younger ferrets in that picture, and when we got the ferrets (last summer), the owners said they were about 5 years.
They were a young couple up in New Hampshire, and they had two dogs. They were working a lot, so they couldn't take care of the ferrets, which need lots of attention. My mom found them posted on Craig's List. She emailed the owners and my dad and I drove to New Hampshire (an hour to get there, an hour in the house, an hour back), and surprised my sister with them.
It was sad, though. The girl seemed heartbroken to have to give up the ferrets.
On another hand, we were lucky. Two ferrets, a bag of food, toys, a huge three-story cage (probably around $280), as well as some accesories and grooming supplies. It was all for $100. They must have needed to find a better home for them ASAP. I grew attached to Tito (the brown one) the minute I saw him, but it didn't feel right to take (or buy) them from someone else. ☹️
My mom also warned us that, since they went for so cheap, there could have been something wrong with them. But they are still happy, healthy, and energetic. 😊

I just asked because I've seen that picture around, except on a background since middle school. And I'm in college now. XD

But that sounds sad. I want a ferret! XD

I might be getting a snake though.

@April_ I feel so special, having my ferrets on a little corner of the Internet. XD They'll always be there, even after they die. I've never seen the picture online before, other than the Craigslist ad, so this was a huge shocker for me. 😱

The ferrets would try to eat a snake. 😋 They try to eat my guinea pig... Not much of a relation though XD

I'll try to put some pictures of them on my Google+ account soon. It's just a pain having to transfer them from my phone, to my email, then touching them up and changing the size...
