So if my ferrets have the run of the bathroom, the dining room, and the living
room, you're saying that I should plan to get 3 litter boxes (4 if my living
room is big)?  Jeesh.  I should have opened a pet store.  I really don't won't
these things in all of my rooms.  I'm rather hoping to train them to go back
to the bathroom.  Is this known as wishful thinking?
 
At this point, I still can't get them to consistently use the litter box
while they are in just the half bath.  If this keeps up, I'll need about 10
litter boxes to keep these guys happy.
 
I'm still looking for some good names for mother/daughter pairs from
history, literature, wherever.
