Hi, /an/. I am kind of getting into small carnivorous/omnivorous mammals, even though I was kind of a reptile/fish/bird guy before. I am really interested in keeping a ferret, opossum or something up that alley. Are there any good beginner choices?
It should be a bit forgiving of mistakes, shouldn't mind being handled (can be cuddly as well) and it has to be available in Germany, or at least the Netherlands.
four eyed opossums and etc will be about the easiest.
You don't want a stoat/weasel, they can be kept as pets but are like fucking flubber 24/7 and supposedly never stop biting constantly when they play

Stoat/weasel wasn't really on my list anyway, I think I'd need a special permit to keep those.
Four eyed opossum however is a pretty good idea. Do you happen to know any breeders or stores that have them ?
My picks are a short-tailed or a Virginia opossum, a ferret or maybe (and a big maybe at that) a genet.
