It was a good place, where the ferrets could be left to roam by themselves across the floor. I only brought Rustan and Carmen, as I thought they'd have the most fun and be the least trouble. Both had also been given small bells on their harnesses, so I could keep track of them.
It didn't help all the time: Once Rustan got lost.
I thought he was
with my mother when she walked down the stairs, so I continued to keep an
eye on Carmen. Then I heard she had walked outdoors -- which didn't sound
right, as I had both of the leads by the transport cage.
I rushed down to trying to find Rustan in the kitchen area, but he hadn't been there -- I went outdoors trying to look for tracks in the snow: No tracks. At last, we found him upstairs in the main hall, with all the others, but he had been keeping still and quiet behind one of the doors.
