Dear Melody,
Thanks very much for the idea... it so happens that my girls LOVE peaches...
and fruit in general...also cherry licorice... I'm gonna test them out on
the peach syrup next time I open a can of peaches... if nothing else, it
should make a nice treat for them.  I am forwarding this off to the Ferret
List in the hopes that others might also benefit from this little remedy
for travel sickness.  Thanks again...
