I want to thank everyone who suggested methods to ferret-proof my electrical
cords.  On the assumption that "more is better", I intend to incorporate
several suggestions at once.  Today I am buying aquarium tubing to cover the
cords, bitter apple to cover the tubing, and aluminum foil for a fail-safe
system.  I'll let you know how it works out.  I have also just joined the
Ferret Rescue in my area, so I expect I'll be posting many more questions to
the list.  I've only had three ferrets so far, but I'm pretty good with
animals.  If I can help some of these little guys, I want to try.  So thanks
to all for recent and future advice!
