Hee hee. My ferrets do this, too! I really don't do it too much because
I'm afraid of sucking out their eyes or something awful like that. Hey
vet-people, can you suck out a ferret's eyes with a vacuum? :) I can't
have mine loose while vacuuming, otherwise all I get done is pulling
ferrets off it. They all run and lock their jaws on it and then scoot
back and forth and back and forth ... Almost like a natural fur dusting
mop. :) Ferrets: fur-covered psychos. :)
