I envy you
My housemates have threatened me with death if I get even a single ferret, let alone five.

But if you got one or two
You could threaten the housemate with death with them!

I've got 5 housemates
I'd need to get 10 ferrets minimum, kill the housemates with them, and then inadvertently start up my own ferret farm.

I'll just wait until I move out and then get myself a ferret then. Are they easily house-trainable?

Yeah
They're house-trainable, but expect things to vanish every now and then. They do like to steal things, I heard about one that hid a 5Kg bag of potatoes once.

Get a hundred.
Then set them on your housemate.

I'll need five hundred
As I've got 5 housemates.

Now, where can I get ferrets in bulk?

China.
But they'll be shit quality and fall apart after a few uses.

It's OK
As long as they last long enough to do my dirty work and off the housemates before falling apart, then I'll be OK. If they don't last that long, d'you reckon I could get a refund?
