	Ancol Ferret Line Traditionally, a ferret line is 10 or 12 yards of cord which is attached to the collar of a liner - a big, bossy, anti-social hob whose job it is to go down into a warren to find any ferret that is laid up with a kill. The liner (who normally lives alone) drives the first ferret off the kill and then stays put. The warrener then digs out the liner, and the kill, by following the line down the warren. We don't work our ferrets, but because our garden can't be easily ferret proofed, we find the ferret line useful for exercising them. We attach the clip on the ferret line to the ferret's harness, attach the other end of the line to a large metal stake in the middle of the lawn, then sit back with a large glass of wine while the ferret does what ferrets do - extend the holes in the lawn, dig up plants in the flower bed, finishing off by climbing up onto a lap for a cuddle and a treat. The Ancol ferret line is made from 8mm wide nylon webbing and is 10 metres long. Price: £5.87 including VAT at 15%
