I have a question for everyone out in ferret land.
This morning, as I was going in to say good bye to
our ferrets, I noticed that the female was chewing
on a rag.  I kept calling her to come over, but she
was really into it.  (This is one of her sleeping
towels).  I finally pick her up and have to pull a
pretty big size portion out of her mouth before she
will even notice me.  Then, I put her down and put the
rag up.  When I walk by (about 2 minutes later), she
had gotton to the rag and started the whole thing all
over.  Does anyone know why she is doing this?  I fear
that she may gag and not know how to save herself.
I took the rag and put it in another room (hopefully
she can't get to it).
 
Thanks in advance,
Susan Benysh
