So there I was calmly making dinner with a ferret sleeping soundly in my
shirt until I took the head of iceberg lettuce out of its protective
wrapper.  The soundly sleeping ferret suddenly awakens and starts climbing
up the inside of my shirt.  She pokes her head out and sniffs in the
direction of the head of lettuce.  I of course try to let her know that
lettuce does not resemble in either taste or appearance raisins.  This of
course is to no avail as the previously soundly sleeping ferret tears off a
piece of lettuce, pulls it down into the shirt, and proceeds to eat the
whole thing!
 
Now mind you this is not a starving ferret, plenty of food, raisins, and
ferretone with of course the occasional piece of broccoli, but lettuce???
 
Hmmm........

start followed by the broccoli and raisin stir fry marinated in ferretone,
and I'll finish with the soap chip ice cream with an evian water, thank
you.)
