Commissioner's pet project will see ferrets get passports


European dogs, cats and ferrets are to receive passports next year, allowing them to scamper freely across borders within most of the European Union.

The documents will have a blue cover, embossed with the yellow stars of the EU, and will contain a photograph of the pet and a code corresponding to its tattoo or microchip that will guarantee that it is free of rabies.
