Okay, I had to respond to this one!
 
My silver mitt, Roxy, feels like a brillo pad.  Summer, winter, fall,
spring, she feels like a brillo pad, albiet slightly less in the winter.
None of the rest of the ferrets have this lovely brillo texture, so I don't
think it's a food or vitamin issue.  I think she's just taking steel gray
to an extreme!
 
She is ALSO my kamikaze ferret.  If she wants out of the ferret-sanctioned
areas, she climbs on the highest thing anywhere NEAR the exit and flings
her 1.3 lb self over it.  I swear, she's got wings tucked up in there
somewhere!  I'm really thinking that there's something to this silver mitt
theory!!
