I think it's a naming thing. My new little addition is also named Gizmo,
and he likes to BITE, not nip, not play, but BITE. He's already drawn
blood from my hand.
So...now what I try is I put on two pair of gloves on one hand, (for a 1
month old ferret, he's got huge teeth, and bites HARD!), cover the glove
with Fooey<tm> which is a Bitter-Apple type of spray, and try and play with
him. He of course bites my fingers, hard enough that I feel it through the
gloves, but then he sneezes when he tastes the fooey.
So, since I've just started this training today, I dont know how it will
go. I'll let you all know in a few days.
