ʻO kahi ferret kahi holoholona i makemake e noho i nā lua, hiki i kahi ferret ke hoʻāʻo e hūnā i kekahi āpau a paʻa i loko ona, no laila ma mua o kou lawe ʻana i kahi ferret, pono ʻoe e mālama i kona wahi noho.
ʻO ka ferret kahi holoholona i aloha i ke kūʻokoʻa o ka neʻe, no laila ʻaʻole e kaupalena ʻia i hoʻokahi lumi a i ʻole ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi, kahi hale paʻa, hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia ia no nā hale wā pōkole, no ka laʻana, ke hoʻomaʻemaʻe a neʻe paha. Akā ʻoiai he ākea ka pā e hiki ai i kahi mea inu, pola, pā a me kahi hiamoe ke komo i laila.
Groom a ferret ʻaʻole paʻakikī, he mea nui ia e ʻike i kekahi ʻano o kāna ʻike i ka paʻa pio ʻana, a mākou e kūkākūkā ai ma lalo.
ʻO ka mea mua, ʻo kahi hiʻohiʻona nui ka hānai ʻana o ka ferret. E aʻo ʻia nā lula o ka lawena mai ka wā kamaliʻi. No ka lawehala, hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻopaʻi iā ia, no ka laʻana, lawe iā ia i ka ʻāʻī o kona ʻāʻī a hoʻoluliluli iā ia, me nā huaʻōlelo "ʻAʻole hiki iā ʻoe!" a i ʻole "Fu!" ʻO ka ferret kekahi o nā wahi nāwaliwali - ka ihu, e like me nā holoholona ʻē aʻe, no laila e ʻike ʻia kahi kaomi iki ma luna o ia ka hoʻopaʻi. Akā, e like me kāu e ʻike ai, ʻelua ʻaoʻao o ka mekala, no laila i ke kaʻina o ka hoʻoulu ʻana i ka ferret, ʻaʻole pono ʻoe e hoʻopaʻi wale, akā e paipai pū kekahi, no ka laʻana, no ka mea ua hele pololei i loko o ka pā, hāʻawi iā ia i kekahi hua: kahi ʻāpana maiʻa, pea. Paipai mākou iā ʻoe e hōʻole i ka hānai ʻana i ka ferret me ke kokoleka, nā mea ʻono a i ʻole nā kuki, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi e koho i kahi papaʻai o nā huaʻai a me nā mea kanu.
Eia kekahi, i ke kaʻina o ke kāhiko ʻana i kāu ferret, pono ʻoe e ʻokiʻoki i nā kui a ʻauʻau. Piʻi koke nā kui i nā māiʻuʻu, no laila pono lākou e ʻokiʻoki pinepine. He mea nui e ʻoki pono i ka māiʻuʻu - ʻoki ʻia ka piko ma kahi laina e kūlike i ka laina o loko o ka māiʻu, ʻo ia hoʻi. ʻo ka lou e ulu wale ana ka mea i ʻoki ʻia. I kēia hihia, ʻaʻole ka mea nui e hōʻino i nā kīʻaha koko. Hana maikaʻi ʻia nā kaʻina hana ʻauʻau ma mua o 1-2 mau manawa i ka mahina; i ka wā e ʻauʻau ana, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka waiho ʻana o ka ferret ma lalo o ke kāʻei a i ʻole ka ʻauʻau. E nānā i ka mahana o ka wai, ma kahi o 37-38 kekelē. He mea pono e hoʻomaopopo he aloha ka ferrets e ʻauʻau, no laila hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻauʻau, waiho i nā mea pāʻani i loko ona a ʻae iā ia e ʻauʻau, akā mai poina e pili ana i kahi mokupuni kahi e hele ai ka ferret e hoʻomaha. Ma hope o ka holoi ʻana, e holoi pono iā ia me kahi kāwele maloʻo, hoʻomaʻemaʻe i nā pepeiao a kau ma kahi kāwele hohola, kahi e hoʻomaloʻo ai ka ferret iā ia iho.
Inā ʻoe e mālama i kahi ferret, a laila pono ʻoe e ʻike he pono e hoʻāla ʻia ka ferret e kūʻē i ka maʻi ahulau, no ka mea, he emi iki ka make ma ia ʻano maʻi ma mua o 100%. Pono ʻoe e nīnau i kāu kauka holoholona e pili ana i nā maʻi ʻē aʻe, nā lāʻau āpau a me nā hopena ʻē aʻe.
I ka hopena o ka ʻatikala e pili ana i kahi e mālama ai i kahi ferret, makemake wau e ʻōlelo inā e mālama ʻoe i kēia holoholona ma ka home, me nā keiki a me nā holoholona ʻē aʻe, a laila noi mākou iā ʻoe e makaʻala a mālama i ka palekana o nā mea ʻelua.
Mai poina e pāʻani me ka ferret, nānā i kona olakino, hānai a ʻauʻau i ka manawa a maikaʻi nā mea āpau me ia.
