Risa,
I am glad Petey's story makes you laugh, it still makes me giggle too.
This happened about 2 years ago.  Most of my ferrets were older, 3 were
naked with adrenal disease.  And then there was Petey, my 1 year old
hubba hubba right there in the midst of all these old ladies taking care
of them.
 
One day my computer took a nose dive and my computer repair guy, Terry
came to my house to fix it.  When he got up to leave, he turned around
and looked at my wall of cages and said.  "don't you have any ferrets
that aren't old and sick?" I said "sure, I have Petey my hubba hubba".
Terry said, "You mean that one down there with the poop all over him?" I
looked down and sure enough, on the bottom level of the cage, there was
Petey sound asleep.  His big ol belly in the air, with a perfect pile of
poop right dead center on his belly.  One of his cage mates was Missy P.
Missy P was very old and senile.  With her age, her ability to use the
little came to an end.  She just went where she was.  And she had just
happened to be on the level right about Petey.  I opened the cage and
cleaned him and he never woke or new the difference.  That's when he
became Petey the Pooped On, AKA Petey TPO.
