"Who, me officer? What's a ferret? These guys?? No,
they're Polish cats."

POLISH CATS. That's very funny. Anyway, just got word
back about the airlines. They all (except for Delta
who I now have more respect for) do not consider
ferrets domesticated. But it's OK to bring a rabbit.
A RABBIT, I mean, last time I checked you kept a
rabbit in a hutch outside your house. Whatever.
Anyway, all those other airlines lose out on business
(not that there is this growning need to fly with
ferret). But for those of us who do once in a while
how do they handle the flights? Can someone fill me in
on that now that the airline has been chosen? What do
I do to make sure the trip is easy and comfy for the
first time flier? thanks
