Hi there.  Just an update from the world of Abercrombie and Fitch.
Yesterday my boyfriend and I bought them a Bumble Ball, which increased the
activity level and frequency of dooking significantly.  Actually, within
about 20 minutes of playing with it, Fitch figured out how to turn it on by
nosing the switch on the side of it!  So at about 4:00 this morning, we
woke to the sounds of chaos (Bumble Ball and the two little monsters) in
the living room caused by Fitch's ingenuity!!
 
I recently found that Abercrombie has another fetish--Velcro.  It began
when I bought a lunch bag that has velcro to seal it closed.  Abercrombie
kept stealing the empty bag from my satchel when I came home from work,
although I originally though it was because the bag still smelled like my
lunch.  The bag has since disappeared, although I hear sounds of him
chewing on velcro under the couch.  He has since started stealing my
DayRunner (personal planner) that closes with velcro, and my purse, which
has a sunglasses pouch that seals with velcro.  In both cases, he always
starts by chewing on the velcro, and then tries to drag the item somewhere
that he can have more privacy (like under the couch where it can be lost
forever).  Any ideas why he likes it so much?  Is this simply an example of
a complicated ferret tooth-brushing technique (who knows--maybe velcro is
an efficient tartar remover).  :)
 
Much thanks and best wishes to all your little monsters!
