Touring with a ferret... bad idea?
I have not posted on here in a long time, wow. I plan to ride the south this summer touring for a few causes and raising awareness for alternative lifestyles. I have most of my gear set up and I am more prepared than I have been in a while (ever). The gear I am working on now will accommodate my furry little friend, Mufasah. I have a good idea of how he will do on the road, he is a tough and super friendly ferret who loves to ride in a basket on my bike. So the creature will do fine, unless he overheats...that is my concern. I looked into portable animal crate A/C units which are around $150 and I have a crate that it would attach to. I could mount this crate to my rear rack and put in a few blankets, a water bottle, and store his harness and accessories in my bags. I am sure this will work but I am going to plan well before I ride.
Anybody know of this being done before?
Done it yourself?
Am I crazy?
