I live in California. Pretty much all the cool pets are illegal here.
That being said I knew a guy who had a raccoon and several ferrets. Their house smelled awful but once you were there for awhile you kinda stopped smelling it and the raccoon and ferrets were adorable together.
I had a ferret in my 20s. Little dude bathed at least once a week and still smelled. Was (almost) litter trained and could bend in half, spastically hopping around like a little smelly crackhead
Yeah they stink no matter what. You can get their stinky gland removed but I'm still not sure if that's good for them or not. Idk. I'm not a veterinarian and they are super illegal here so it's not really something I am concerned about at this present moment haha.
Heard about the gland thing, and definitely not into it, but he had just an overall musky smell. Not like he sprayed or anything. We went to beach a lot and he'd hang out under umbrella shade and flirt with the girls.
Yeah the smell is strong and odd but it's not outright bad. Just a bit weird until you get used it.
