Thanks to those who replied concerning Cleo(ferret) and Missy(cat).  The
two are getting along famously.  Cleo has taken to licking/grooming
Missy.  Missy loves this, purrs and snuggles up to Cleo.  They fight like
puppies sometimes.  Cleo is so much happier now that she has so much room
to play in and her cage has been retired indefinately.  She is much
calmer now that she doesn't have to spend any time caged up and now that
she has a playmate to wear her out.
 
I am still having very much trouble getting Cleo to use a litter box.
She has her own litterbox that the cat does not use but neither does
Cleo.  Cleo goes potty right outside of the cats litterbox.  This is
really getting to be a pain to have to clean up several times a day and
the smell is terrible.  I clean the whole area with clorox clean-up
trying to get id of the smell... what can I do to discourage her from
going there and using her litterbox.  I have managed to catch her a
couple times in the act and put her in the litter box but she never goes
there on her own.
 
Any suggestions would be helpful.  I would hate to have to confine Cleo
because she can't be trained.
 
 
 
Thanks,
Amy & Cleo & Missy
