Seymour did a weird thing when he was playing with the cat this morning.  I
looked over at them, and Seymour was laying flat on his back, very still.
Psycho had one front leg across him and was biting his neck.  Seymour was
jooking and hissing, but he was just laying perfectly still.  I went over to
shoo Psycho away, because I thought he might be hurting Seyomur, but when I
got there, I saw that Psycho was barely touching him!  Could this be a sign
of submission on Seymour's part?  It seems strange to me that a ferret would
be submissive to a cat, but Seymour *is* pretty laid back.  But then why
would he be hissing and chooking?  He never acted like that with his old
kitty-friend 'Nala'.  And she was much bigger than Psycho....
 
Pine shavings:
Someone asked about pine shavings and if they made ferrets sneeze. Well, I
asked almost the exact same question not too long ago, and the reply I got
was, 'Pine shavings are bad, but I've never seen them cause sneezing'.
Well, I have, it's why I asked the question in the first place. Has anyone
else seen pine shavings cause sneezing in ferrets? I don't think anyone
knows for sure, but it's probably a reasonable guess that they do.
 
BIG, I love your comments, even if you are a smart-ass sometimes:) Aren't
we all?
