Hey Brandon, that sounds like an idea to try for my girls.  They won't
keep still for anything and even Ferretvite on the tummy doesn't last long
enough for a full nail clip.  I just can't see me with my 3 lb.  boy, Oso,
hanging from my mouth!  Maybe the first time I try this I'll stand over the
couch, in case!
 
I agree whole heartedly with yesterday's pet sitting poster from NH.  Even
if they are bonded and insured, they aren't necessarily animal lovers.  I
too pet sit in Monmouth County NJ with no other employees and enjoy it
greatly.
 
Over the past few days, not including Friday, the weather here has been
beautiful.  I bought the guys an inexpensive potting soil, filled up a
shadow box and let 'em at it on the balcony.  They had such a blast!
Little faces fille dwith dirt, all you could see were bright, gleaming
eyes!  Great pictures!!  It was a perfect afternoon for it, right before
the floors and furniture were steam cleaned.  It was great and only their
feet were really dirty so I just rinsed in the sink and they were exhausted
and happy.  Of course, if they were filthy they would have had a little
"swim" in the bathtub too!  Not an expensive way to spend an afternoon and
the guys just love it!
 
Have you hugged your ferret today?
