Hello fmlers! :o)
 
First off (even though this may be a bit late; I haven't been keeping up
with the fml lately), I'd like to address Michael Runyon's opinion about 8
in 1 food and share mine (and this is not a flame in any way):
 
>First, the dry is advertised as having raisin juice and the canned as having
>Ferratone.  Does anyone else have a problem with this logic???  How about
>this - if you have to add something to make the ferret want to eat it,
>shouldn't that tell you something about the food itself, like maybe it isn't
>the best thing for them but they are hiding that fact with the raisin juice
>or ferratone.
 
Is it wrong to make the food taste better? I don't know about you, but to me,
good things are usually the ones that taste bad. E.G., brussel sprouts and
asparagus. I know some people actually like these things, but not me! My
girls eat 8 in 1 sometimes (I try and trade foods every month or so in case
one goes out of business or some such thing), and nothing untoward happened
to them. =) Maybe Mr. Runyon is right and I'm wrong, but I just thought I'd
give my opinion. :)
 
Chloe and Velvet are the most exasperating little things!  (Sorry if some of
this is redundant--I can't remember what I've already told you.) Originally,
I had bought one triangular litter box (very nice design, actually--high in
the back sides, low in front).  I put it in their chosen corner, hoping
they'd use it on their own.  They had supposedly been mostly trained.
However, they just threw the litter out and used the corner opposite it.  I
bought another triangular box and put it in the other corner, so guess what
they did?  It seems that the two boxes make a perfect right angle in the
middle, just wonderful for a toilet corner.  I thought about replacing the
triangles with squares, but that would just make a straight line, creating
two more corners.  I'm at my wit's end!  (A place I seem to be at more often
after aquiring these carpet sharks!) Any ideas?  Suggestions?  Good mental
hospital references?
 
Thanks!
 
Liz and the
Sable Sisters,
Chloe (well, I'll just switch corners, then) &
Velvet (g'way, I'm trying to potty)
