Condolences to those with sick or angeled floor frolickers.
>So tell me, what do you people do to keep you ferrets fit and trim?
I take nice color pictures, scan them into my computer, then used a good
photo editor to make them as fit and trim as I think they should be. Then
I can look at the pictures whenever I feel a need to see a little less of
them! :) Of course, if you can figure out how to make them stay on, you
can print out the changes pictures, then affix them to the aforementioned
flabby fur-brat and at least it will *look* like it's skinnier! :)
Actually, all kidding aside (who am *I* kidding? :)), just try to keep the
active. If they don't seem to play as much, then try exposing them to
something new. For a new idea, try putting them in a bathtub with about an
inch of water at the front. Try taking them outside on a leash to dig in
the yard. Take them for a walk on a leash (be prepared to stop every six
inches while they sniff everything in site). If all else fails, pick them
up and "wrestle" with them for a few moments, then put them down and let
them war dance. Pick them back up and do it again. War dancing burns 8.3
calories per minute (Ok, so I made that one up...but the statistic *looks*
real!) and gets their little metabolisms going!
Have fun!
