There is a serious lack of coats online for ferrets, and the ones I did find were seriously out of my price range! So, I headed down to my local haberdashery and picked up some material for just under £8 which is enough for three coats! The coats I was looking at would have cost me well over triple that before postage!
I've made two so far, I still have Shiro's to do. Lola has a blue cherry print cotton fabric with a cream fleece lining and an adorable flower decoration whereas the boys have matching coats with a very patriotic design! They are secured with neck and belly straps that are fastened with velcro for ease of use. Once I've made Shiro's coat I just need to make a single 'buttonhole' on the back of each coat so that I can attach the lead to the harness underneath.
I obviously haven't got any pictures of Shiro in his little coat yet but here are the pics we got of Alfie and Lola....

Well, I hope you like them and don't forget to subscribe/join with GFC to keep up to date! I'm hoping to make some more bedding in the near future...
