Ferrets and Children
You want to get your child a pet, or bring a pet into the home with a child, but is a ferret the right pet to get if you have children? Are the children safe with a ferret in the house? The bigger question you should ask is if the ferret is safe in the house with a child! Children have gentle souls - but they are not gentle creatures. Ferrets may have strong jaws, but the rest of them can be damaged by small hands or feet. So, should you avoid getting a ferret if you have a child? Not necessarily. It is recommended that you not get a ferret if you have a child under the age of seven in the house. Some experts recommend not having one if the child is under the age of ten, however in the end, how responsible the child is really determines whether or not a ferret will be safe with them. A ferret will see a child as a playmate - just as they see you or other animals as a playmate. They don't understand that the child may not know his own strength. They do not distinguish adults from children, and if the child hurts them, they will react to that - with their teeth. You can't blame the ferret. The ferret is an animal that has very strong survival instincts. You can't blame the child either - they don't know any better. The thing is that you will have a better chance of helping the child to know better than trying to make the ferret understand that the child is just a child. Introduce the ferret to the child. Teach the child how to gently hold the ferret, and how to play with the ferret. Make sure that he or she understands how delicate the ferret is, and that if they get too rough, it could hurt the ferret - and that the ferret will hurt back. Also teach your child that the ferret may hide itself a way and nap - and they always need to be on the lookout for the ferret. The ferret may climb into a toy box, an open drawer, a pile of clothes, or anything else that looks inviting. Ferrets are often injured because someone did not know that they were there. For instance, if your child plops down on the sofa, they may hurt the ferret if the ferret decided to nap under the seat cushion - which is not unusual. Children easily spread germs to other children and adults. Ferrets can catch illnesses from humans, such as colds and the flu. Make sure that any child who will be handling your ferret washes their hands thoroughly before and after. Children and ferrets can get along just fine, but you really need to watch small children when a ferret is around. Ferrets are not safe in a home with small children, and if small children will be in the home even briefly, it is in the ferret's best interest to put it inside of a locked cage.

H Pandya to B Azam, Angling into the batsman, Azam wrists it through the square leg region. Runs the first one hard and slips while turning for the second run. So only a run taken in the process. H Pandya to B Azam, Wide! Sprayed way down the leg side, Azam fails to clip it through. This is the tenth wide of the innings. 40.1: R Jadeja to M Hafeez, FOUR! Hafeez continues from where he left against England. Dances down the track, gets to the pitch of the ball and smashes it down the track over mid off for a boundary. Off the mark in style. no run, Huge shout for LBW! Good length delivery and angling into the batsman, Ali shuffles across and tries to clip it on the leg side. Misses it completely and gets rapped high on the pads. The players appeal but the umpire is not interested. Good call as the replays show it was way too high. India stormed to a 124-run win over rivals Pakistan in their rain-affected Champions Trophy Group B clash at Edgbaston. Virat Kohli blasted an unbeaten 81 off 68 balls and Yuvraj Singh 53 off 32 as India posted a formidable 319-3 from 48 overs, while Pakistan, in pursuit of a Duckworth-Lewis-Smith adjusted target of 289 in 41 overs, were bowled out some way short for 164. Virat Kohli hits out on his way to an unbeaten 81 in the win over Pakistan India will be relieved to get their tournament off to a winning start after rain forced the players from the field on three separate occasions threatening a second Edgbaston washout in as many games, and in front of fervent 24,156 strong crowd - the highest ever attendance for an ODI at the ground.Batting first, India came off in the 10th and 34th overs of their innings, with the stoppages seemingly affecting their rhythm - Rohit Sharma particularly struggling after getting off to a strong start.Though he'd finish as India's top-scorer for the innings, Sharma (91 off 119 balls) could score only four runs off 20 deliveries either side of the second rain break despite having been seemingly well-set in the 70s at the time. Rohit Sharma top-scored for India with 91 despite struggling for fluency at times Shikhar Dhawan (68 off 65), who also hit a fine half century - sharing in a 136-run opening partnership with Sharma - rather tamely departed in between the two rain breaks, flicking a Shadab Khan (1-52) full toss straight to Azhar Ali at deep midwicket.Sharma, meanwhile, perished in the 37th over when he was rather unfortunate to be run out - his bat bouncing up and failing to ground beyond the popping crease as he dived for home.It brought Yuvraj to the crease with Kohli and the pair pummeled a sorry Pakistan attack in the closing overs, as many as 113 runs coming from the final nine. Ravindra Jadeja celebrates the wicket of Pakistan's Mohammad Hafeez Pakistan certainly didn't help their cause by dropping both batsmen - Hasan Ali spilling Yuvraj when on eight at long-on, and Fakhar Zaman dropping Kohli on 44 at deep square-leg.Kohli had struggled for fluency early on in his innings, taking 58 balls to reach his half century, but his next 31 runs took only 10 deliveries. Yuvraj, meanwhile, reached his half century in just 29 balls.And even when Yuvraj fell in the penultimate over of the innings - lbw on review to Hasan (1-52) - Hardik Pandya (20no) came in and continued the carnage, launching the first three balls of Imad Wasim's final over for three sixes.To make matters worse for Pakistan, both Mohammad Amir and Wahab Riaz - his 0-87 in 8.4 overs the most expensive figures in Champions Trophy history - left the field late on to injury.Though Pakistan's run-chase got off to a reasonable start either side of a final rain break in the fifth over, their innings was ultimately fraught with poor shot selection and running between the wickets. Azhar Ali played nicely for 50 from 65 deliveries at the top of the order, but with the required run-rate consistently climbing, Pakistan were forced into some expansive strokeplay, which they failed to execute.Babar Azam slashed a wide Umesh Yadav (3-30) delivery straight to Ravindra Jadeja at backward point, Azhar top-edged a short offering from Jadeja down to deep square-leg, while Jadeja completed a personal hat-trick of sorts by running out Shoaib Malik with a direct hit.Mohammad Hafeez also perished in the deep off Jadeja (2-43), while Imad Wasim flayed Pandya (2-43) to the fielder at point to depart first ball as the tail were swiftly skittled - Pakistan bowled out in just 33.4 overs.Pakistan next play on Wednesday when facing South Africa in a day-night match at Edgbaston, while India play a day later against Sri Lanka at The Oval.The live ICC Champions Trophy coverage continues on Sky Sports 2 HD on Monday, with the day-night Group A game between Australia and Bangladesh at The Oval. Tune in from 1pm to see all the action. 1 run, Sliding into the southpaw, Fakhar plays away from his body, gets an inside edge to short fine leg for a single. End of a good Powerplay for Pakistan.

Sliding into the batsman, defended with soft hands in the mid-wicket region. Yuvraj there, gets to the ball and scores a direct hit at the bowler's end. Zaman puts in a good dive to come in but the umpire still goes upstairs to confirm. The replays show that Fakhar was well in. ‘Jeetega bhai jeetega, India jeetega’ - ‘India’s going to win, bro, India’s going to win.’ Commentators’ cliches Pakistan are ‘mercurial’, ‘flaky’, ‘unfathomable’. India are ‘elegant’, ‘imperious’ and ‘enjoy rock-star status at home’. Essential kit Pakistan Curly green Scouse wig, horn. 3 runs, Some shot, that! Full outside off, driven crisply through covers. Bhuvneshwar from long off, hares to his right and makes a diving stop near the fence. Saves a run for his team. Such efforts will lift India. The timing however was exceptional on that one.

The partition of British India in 1947 that led to the creation of an independent India and Pakistan was characterised by intense and bloody conflict between Hindus, Muslims and Sikhs that left one million people dead. An estimated ten million people migrated to the nation of their choice. The bloody legacy of the partition and the subsequent emergence of territorial disputes and wars being fought over them have all added to the growth of intense rivalries in field hockey, association football but especially in cricket, which had been developed during British colonial rule and is the most popular sport in both nations. Many of the players in the first post-independence teams of India and Pakistan had played together as teammates in regional and local tournaments.

Next ball Prasad cranked up the pace and uprooted off-stump, prodding his thumb in the opposite direction, towards the dressing rooms and ultimately out of the tournament. The sport’s governing body has made a recent push to try to grow the game in the U.S. In 2015, a group of retired legends played three matches across the country, in New York City, Houston and Los Angeles, with each game drawing over 20,000 fans. And when India and Pakistan met in last year's World Cup for the shortened 20-over version of the game, the average audience in the U.S. was a non-too-shabby 1.4 million. 39.4: B Kumar to S Malik, OUT! Malik holes out! Short delivery outside off, Malik plays the forehand smash. Does not middle it well and the ball goes towards the deep cover region. Jadhav gets under it and takes a simple catch. Bhuvneshwar has struck at a really crucial time as Malik could have been dangerous in the latter stages. B Kumar to B Azam, Another good length delivery around off, Azam works it towards the fielder at mid-wicket. A sensation over from Bhuvneshwar. Only two runs and a wicket from it. 1 run, A rare misfield from Jadeja! Good length delivery outside off, Zaman dabs it towards backward point where Jadeja misfields. The batsmen run a single and Jadeja scores a direct hit at the non-striker's end but the batsman was already in.

Kohli had struggled for fluency early on in his innings, taking 58 balls to reach his half century, but his next 31 runs took only 10 deliveries. Yuvraj, meanwhile, reached his half century in just 29 balls. In recent months, relations have taken a further downward turn as a result of frequent clashes over the Line of Control in the contested region of Kashmir. During that time, Pakistani actors have been banned from Bollywood, while Indian films were forbidden from being shown in Pakistan. Cricket is now one of the few vehicles that bring people of the two countries together, albeit there will be little togetherness on show in the heart of the battle in Sunday’s final at London’s Oval cricket ground. 1 run, Quicker one around off, Malik cuts it late. Rohit from short third man dives to his right to make a good stop. A single is taken. https://www.cricketwatchdogs.com no run, Fuller around leg, Ali clips it on the leg side. Yuvraj Singh at mid-wicket dives to his right to make a fine stop. leg byes, 1 run, Leg bye! Good length delivery and angling in, Ali tries to drive it on the up. Misses it completely and he gets rapped on his back thigh pad. The ball goes past the keeper towards third man for a leg bye. A huge appeal is denied. Hardik wants a review but Dhoni indictaes height to Kohli. The skipper takes his keeper's words and doesn't opt for the review. Replays show that the impact was umpire's call. Later the snicko shows that it had hit the front pad first. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IaGlAad8c0&t=4s India innings (50 overs maximum) R M B 4s 6s SR V Sehwag c †Kamran Akmal b Mohammad Asif 5 5 6 1 0 83.33 1.1 OUT! short ball on the off stump, shaping away, Sehwag moves back and defends, gets the nick and Akmal takes an easy catch, great start for Asif and Pakistan! 5/1 SR Tendulkar lbw b Arshad Khan 100 188 113 10 1 88.49 44.6 OUT! full length ball on the off stump, Sachin reverse sweeps and misses it completely, gets plumb in front and appeal upheld 305/5 IK Pathan c sub (Imran Farhat) b Naved-ul-Hasan 65 74 65 12 1 100.00 15.6 OUT! good bouncer angling into Pathan, batsman hooks and gets cramped, ball takes the shoulder of the bat and loops upto Farhat at short fine leg, simple catch taken 99/2 MS Dhoni† c Shoaib Malik b Mohammad Asif 68 68 53 11 1 128.30 33.5 OUT! fraction short outside off stump, Dhoni goes back and cuts it away flat in the air to backward point, Shoaib Malik takes a blinder diving to his left, very good catch to give an important breakthrough 225/3 Yuvraj Singh c Arshad Khan b Abdul Razzaq 39 28 28 4 1 139.28 41.5 OUT! good length ball on the middle and leg stump, Yuvraj lofts it away flat to deep square leg, Arshad Khan takes a smart catch, big breakthrough for the Pakistanis 285/4 R Dravid* lbw b Naved-ul-Hasan 18 17 14 2 0 128.57 45.3 OUT! reverse inswinging yorker on the middle and leg stump, Dravid tries to work it away and gets hit on the toes, plumb in front! 309/6 M Kaif c Salman Butt b Mohammad Asif 8 25 12 0 0 66.66 49.4 OUT and All over! full toss and reverse inswinging, Kaif lofts it away to deep square leg and Butt takes a great catch, runs backwards, jumps and lobs the ball with his right-hand, takes it in the second attempt 328/10 AB Agarkar run out (Shoaib Malik) 3 6 6 0 0 50.00 46.6 from Arshad Khan, OUT, full toss, Agarkar lofts it away to deep mid-wicket, Shoaib Malik collects on one bounce and fires in the throw flat and on the base of the stumps, amazing throw! 315/7 Z Khan c Mohammad Yousuf b Naved-ul-Hasan 5 7 3 1 0 166.66 48.2 OUT slower ball and ends up as a low full toss, Zaheer looks to loft it over mid-off but ends up looping to Yousuf at mid-off, simple catch taken 321/8 M Kartik lbw b Naved-ul-Hasan 1 4 3 0 0 33.33 48.6 OUT full length ball on the leg stump, reverse swinging out, batsman tries to work it away and gets on the pads, plumb in front 324/9 S Sreesanth not out 0 3 1 0 0 0.00 Extras (b 5, lb 2, w 3, nb 6) 16 Total (all out; 49.4 overs; 215 mins) 328 (6.60 runs per over) Fall of wickets 1-5 (Sehwag, 1.1 ov), 2-99 (Pathan, 15.6 ov), 3-225 (Dhoni, 33.5 ov), 4-285 (Yuvraj Singh, 41.5 ov), 5-305 (Tendulkar, 44.6 ov), 6-309 (Dravid, 45.3 ov), 7-315 (Agarkar, 46.6 ov), 8-321 (Khan, 48.2 ov), 9-324 (Kartik, 48.6 ov), 10-328 (Kaif, 49.4 ov) Bowling O M R W Econ 0s 4s 6s Naved-ul-Hasan 10 0 62 4 6.20 42 12 0 (5nb, 2w) 15.6 to Pathan, OUT! good bouncer angling into Pathan, batsman hooks and gets cramped, ball takes the shoulder of the bat and loops upto Farhat at short fine leg, simple catch taken 99/2 45.3 to Dravid, OUT! reverse inswinging yorker on the middle and leg stump, Dravid tries to work it away and gets hit on the toes, plumb in front! 309/6 48.2 to Khan, OUT slower ball and ends up as a low full toss, Zaheer looks to loft it over mid-off but ends up looping to Yousuf at mid-off, simple catch taken 321/8 48.6 to Kartik, OUT full length ball on the leg stump, reverse swinging out, batsman tries to work it away and gets on the pads, plumb in front 324/9 Mohammad Asif 9.4 2 30 3 3.10 41 4 0 1.1 to Sehwag, OUT! short ball on the off stump, shaping away, Sehwag moves back and defends, gets the nick and Akmal takes an easy catch, great start for Asif and Pakistan! 5/1 33.5 to Dhoni, OUT! fraction short outside off stump, Dhoni goes back and cuts it away flat in the air to backward point, Shoaib Malik takes a blinder diving to his left, very good catch to give an important breakthrough 225/3 49.4 to Kaif, OUT and All over! full toss and reverse inswinging, Kaif lofts it away to deep square leg and Butt takes a great catch, runs backwards, jumps and lobs the ball with his right-hand, takes it in the second attempt 328/10 Umar Gul 3 0 35 0 11.66 6 5 1 (1nb) Abdul Razzaq 10 0 70 1 7.00 25 9 0 41.5 to Yuvraj Singh, OUT! good length ball on the middle and leg stump, Yuvraj lofts it away flat to deep square leg, Arshad Khan takes a smart catch, big breakthrough for the Pakistanis 285/4 Shahid Afridi 10 0 68 0 6.80 23 8 1 (1w) Arshad Khan 5 0 35 1 7.00 8 2 1 44.6 to Tendulkar, OUT! full length ball on the off stump, Sachin reverse sweeps and misses it completely, gets plumb in front and appeal upheld 305/5 Shoaib Malik 2 0 21 0 10.50 1 1 1 Pakistan innings (target: 305 runs from 47 overs) R M B 4s 6s SR Salman Butt c Dravid b Kartik 101 147 111 15 0 90.99 31.4 OUT!
