I've heard people mention about that their ferrets enjoy playing/swimming
in water.  I try to make life and play as interesting as possible for my
four fuzzbutts whose ages range from 1.5yrs to 7.5yrs so I place them in a
bathtub with water filled not too high for bath time-thinking,"hey if I can
put fun and bath together why not".  I usually bathe them one by one in the
sink.  My ferrets did not think this "tub time" was fun at all.  One of
them pooed himself and the rest just kinda stood there looking at me-not
getting the "fun" point of all this.  I tried talking to them, sqeaking
there toy...nothing but stares in return(probally thinking their mommy has
lost it).  I was wondering if I should try this again or if maybe I have a
bunch of guys who aren't into the whole water thing?  Any ideas email me or
post-I read both daily.  Next I plan to try the a rice box to see if they
"get that".  I hope no one tries to use it as a litter box ;-)  By the way
they just love the dryer tubes!
