Hi everybody !
 
I have seen a lot of postings about the litterbox use and non-use.   My son
is frustrated with Clyde, the ferret.  He goes whenever he has the urge and
doesn't look for one of the several litterboxes in the room.  I estimate
Clyde to be 4 months old now.
 
Dookie (my birthday ferret) consistently uses the box.  She is ~1 year old.
 
Is my son expecting too much from the little boy ferret , too soon? (my
opinion is yes, the ferret is still young)   Or,  are males simply not as
particular about it as females? Both were originally bought from a pet
store, so they are both neutered . (Dookie was found via a newpaper ad, so
she was a "used" ferret so to speak.)
 
I'm really enjoying these incorrigible little creatures !  Thanks for any
info !
