To Anna and Martin - please don't apologize for having to make a difficult
decision.  You are doing the best you can to take care of the critters that
need you the most.  Is there a club or contact/shelter in your area that you
can contact for support, and possibly help with finding a home for Wookie?
[don't know if they're close to you - try Debi/Steve Arthur, Lansing, MI -
ph 517-484-4024 - (from the STAR* listing) they may know someone else closer
to you] You have my prayers for your situation.
 
To Drew - have you tried getting a remnant of linoleum and cutting it to fit?
 
To Jessica - I'm glad Freud is doing better.  On the litterpans, I scoop
them out at least twice a day.  (My ferts don't like getting their feet
dirty.) Have you tried scruffing and dragging Legend when she bites?  It
took me several months of working with my Quidni, but she had been
mishandled by her previous owner.  She's a real sweetheart now.  Sometimes
it just takes a whole lot of patience and consistancy.  Good luck!
 
To Debbi R - I didn't know (or had missed the post) that you had lost Angel.
I'm sorry.  I enjoyed your article that included her, in Modern Ferret #4.
Bless you.
 
To Dick B - <...amazing how far 50 feet of foil goes...>.  ROFL!  I'm glad
it's not just my critters getting into mischief.  On the caffeine, I'd be
interested in the vet's answers also.  I've avoided giving mine anything
with caffeine, since the one time they got into some regular tea (not the
decaf/herbal I usually share with them) and became obnoxious for the next 10
minutes.
 
To those with lost ferrets - My prayers are with all of you. I hope you each
get good news, and very soon.  Bless you all.
 
Blessings,
