Maggie,it's nice to know I'm not the only one out here with clean ears.  My
Sugar loves to climb up on my lap, up to the shoulder and then begin the
cleaning session.  She does this while I'm sitting.  She nibbles also, and
when done with one side, goes to the other and finishes up the job.  She
then proceeds down the other leg and sometimes does a few toes on her way
to play.  I'm left with very clean ears, and she leaves happy.  I guess a
job well done.  She is also my psychic ferret, as she seems to know just
where an itch on my foot or ankle is located and nibbles that spot.
 
Sugar was on her way to my chair, presumably for an ear cleaning session,
when she noticed this strange phenomenon on the foot stool.  She sat and
stared for at least two minutes, a new record for her.  What had her so
mystified was a cats tail switching back and forth.  It must have been very
intriguing, she never moved a muscle, just stared at this thing moving back
and forth.  Anybody else seen this strange phenomenon of a ferret holding
still, and not being asleep.

Love your ferrets today, for tomorrow they might clean your ears.
