My Brief Stint as a Ferret Owner
Synopsis/Details:
Based on my own experience, a young couple living in an apartment learn that adopting a ferret as their first pet was a terrible idea.
Told in 5 scenes, and could probably be done with just a couple minor FX shots instead of using an actual ferret.
