Dear Henry Lee Jr.,
 
My local shelter lady here [...] mentioned Marshall Farms at one time was an
adequate food, but has since lost some of it's nutrients.  There was a post
about a month or two ago which stated the necessary nutrients, etc and the
percentage required.  Unfortunately, I didn't save that post.
 
You're correct in stating most of the fml'rs use TF for their kids (I will
be looking into obtaining a sample).  At present I buy Sheppard & Greene
(PetSmart) and occasionally mix it with Muzuri ($1.00 per pound at the
local feed store).
 
Feline Pine (PetSmart) is a wonderful litter.  I don't have that awful
smell you mentioned, and the ferts have less "accidents".
 
There is a pet store in Greenwich, at the bottom of Greenwich Ave.  Have
you tried that one.  If memory serves, Greenwich may be a bit of a drive.
If so, try one of these URL's:
 
www.pet-expo.com
www.shopping.com/ibuy/
 
There is also the Ferret Store, but I cannot remember the URL.
 
Best wishes,
 
Dook Dook
