| Nikki will wake up every night around 4 or 5 am and jump up on my
| bed or my roommate's bed and just be a pest. She seems to just want to
| lick our faces, hands, backs, feet.. etc. Nikki is persistent and
| will not leave you alone until you a) hiss at her or b) hide in your
| blankets until she gives up.
| My question is this, has anyone seen similar behavior?
Heh, I probably wouldn't make it to my morning classes if
my ferrets didn't start licking my face around six.
| This has been going on since I have been diligently giving her
| little bits of linatone on my finger for her coat.
|
| Could this have something to do with it?
Bingo! I'll bet that's it. Both of my ferrets started doing it
right after I started giving them linatone -- I didn't even make
the connection. I'll bet skin starts to taste a lot better after
a few times, and maybe they start getting the "linatone urge"
around morning.
| Could it be some thing about salt ?
I've wondered about this, too.. My ferrets also like to pester
my feet alot, and I am fully aware that my feet are saltier
than the rest of me (not that I've tasted :). Do ferrets have
a need for salt, and is there anything like a salt lick that
would be good for them?
Thanks, and happy ferreting,
