    Strange Animal !
    The other day I was browsing through an exotic pet store and a man came in with the coolest pet I've ever seen in my life. It looked like a large, thin ferret with smooth fur that had almost a leopard pattern to it, the man at the counter fed it some baby mice, then it ran around on peoples shoulders sniffing their hair. He said it was a member of the mongoose family, does anyone know what this animal is??

    Could you be referring to a Genet?

    Hope this helps. :)

    Yes ! That is it ! Those have to be the coolest things I've ever seen, the one at the shop was so friendly, but $1500 is a little steep. They really are cool

    Does anyone know a breeder (or happen to be one) so that I could find out what a good price on these is ? I would be looking for a baby, since I read that you have to spend time with them early on to bond.

    People that don't know what these are you should look into them, they're really cool, maybe we can get them popular enough so that they're not so expensive, spread the word!!
