Boy, did I have a scare.  I was making up some "cheater" black beans (not
the Goya Black Bean Soup to which I add Spicy Cilantro w Coconut Chutney,
but the Kuners Black Beans w Lime to which I add cumin, basil (or lemon
basil or another specialty basil desired), cilantro, minced onion, minced
garlic, lime juice, red pepper, and whatever else suits for the day's
needs -- epizote, whatever) when Morney climbed into the refrigerator.
Well, that was funny at first, but then I learned something I had not
known.  Behind our bottom shelf is an opening that goes down to a fan.
When I saw Morney slip downward I freaked -- just lost it -- but luckily
my reaction scared Morney enough that she lept out of there and onto some
of the bulk spice jars.  She wasn't even hurt.  For a second there it was
really scary, though, and it could potentially have been very dangerous,
so watch out for ferrets in the fridge as well as those who might get
under, behind, or beside them (Problems we have already solved by using
caging to seal it off while allowing air-flow.)  Don't let ferrets or
other small animals into the refrigerator.
