I actually really wanted a ferret but I was advised that you should get more than one so that they have each other for company.

I had one for a while and he seemed pretty happy, but I think he was even happier later with a friend. I think if you're getting a ferret for the first time, you're better off getting just one because it's easier to re-home one rather than two if ferrets turn out not to be the right pet for you, but if you like the ferret then you might want to get a second one.
