Well, I got myself all excited thinking "I finally found SOMETHING that the
brats (I mean ferrets) will use!" I bought some puppy training pads the
other night.
 
I was ecstatic the first night when 3 of them actually used the pad!
Whoo-hoo!  No more mopping the kitchen floor every nite!
 
The next nite we had one accident, then last nite we had 3!  UGH!  How can
3 ferrets go to the bathroom so much in just 2 hours?!  At least the other
two (who get put in the bathroom because they don't get along) will poop in
the bathtub!
 
I guess I'm just doomed to mop the rest of my life...or cover the whole
floor with puppy pads...or put diapers on the ferts...or just plug up their
butts with corks while they're out (just kidding!)...
 
Any suggestions?  I've tried a litter box in the kitchen with them, but
they ignore it (and one snorkles in it).  Would a litter box on the puppy
pad be better?  I hadn't thought of that til just now.
