You may find that your skunk will want to curl up and sleep with you. You will want to skunk-proof your house to prevent injuries or escape. If your skunk should ever get out, the odds of getting the skunk back are extremely low. They aren't like a cat or dog that may eventually come home. A skunk will keep going and never come back.
Skunks are very playful.
They love to romp around with stuffed toys, rubber balls or anything else that catches their attention. If you use reclining chairs be extra careful. The mechanisms can crush and kill your skunk so always use caution when using a recliner. To keep your skunk healthy, make sure you give your skunk all available vaccinations. Most diseases your skunk can get are airborne so vaccinations are extremely important.
