I have a POOP DISASTER! on my hands! My new little baby GusGus has
turned out to be a MONSTER WEASELY WOLVERINE POOP MACHINE!
First of all, he's huge. HUGE! Nero and Wheasey are scared. 12 weeks
old and he's already almost as big as Nero, my big male. And he's
ferocious, grrrrrrr!! Watch out, he'll get ya.
I think someone slipped me a Tazmanian Devil at the pet store while I
wasn't looking.
Believe me, it's fun as hell. I get a real kick out of the whole thing.
And I love him more than anything. It's an adventure coming home each
afternoon and seeing how much he grew that day. It's great.
However, the pooping is getting out of hand.
He absolutely refuses to poop in the litter boxes. Yes, plural. I
fashioned more litter boxes all over the cage and around their room. IN
EVERY CORNER! No use. It's like some sort of poopy defiance. It's
everywhere but where it's supposed to be and I really think it's
upsetting Nero and Wheasey as well. They still poop nicely in their
litter boxes like good little ferrets.
The monster weasel, on the other hand, has MONSTROUS MONSTER POOPS that
land to the side or the front of the litter boxes, but never IN them. And
yes, he can get in. I've seen him playing in them, just never pooping!
He'll climb out of the litter box to go poop in my shoes!!
Needless to say, as diligent as I am at cleaning it all up every night...
things are beginning to take on an unpleasant odor. You know, I think he
LIKES to watch me go around cleaning up after him! There's a look of
evil in his eye, and a wicked, weasely grin I swear!
Anyway, I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions as to a remedy to
this problem. Anything at all. I'm at my wits end. If no one wants to
give any advice, can someone at least direct me to some web page, book,
etc.. that could help me?? Pretty Please??
Thank you,
dani
