i have found that my ferrets all come running when i ring a bell.  precious has
 one special round bell which is tied on a shoelace which she is particularly f
ond of.  she hides it in her favorite places by dragging it around.  watching h
er is quite amusing as she acts like a lion dragging it's kill.  no matter wher
e she is she comes running for the bell.  i also occassionally give her ferreto
ne as a reward for coming and always fuss about how smart and wonderful she is.
she also loves to climb in the tub to drink water such as kari's fuzzy.  she cl
imbs up the bath mat which is hung on the side to dry.  if there's no after sho
wer leftover water i run a little water for her.  she definately prefers it to
her water.  she loves to drinks hot soapy bath water and will climb up and beg
for a drink.  whenever i buy bubble bath now i check to make sure it is safe an
natural.
