Hmmm.  My little Nancy (not to be confused with big Nancy, who subscribes
to this list) _is_ rather quiet, and acts almost despondent at times.
Perhaps I should take the plunge, and get another.  I'm in an FFZ; does
anyone know he addresses & phone no's of some ferret shelters in, say,
Connecticut?
 
Also, yes, they definitely love remote control buttons.  I have come to the
conclusion that they can _smell_ the rubber content of plastics.  That's
the only explanation I have for Nancy seeking out bicycle inner tubes when
she can't see them.
