Thanks to all of you who posted about how to properly 'scritch' a ferret. Jaws has never been a lap ferret, normally stopping by for a treat & going back to play. Now he will climb up in my lap demanding to be 'scritched' , arches his back, rolls his eyes and sticks his tounge out. He looks so funny. If I stay with it long enough he will curl up and go to sleep in my lap for an hour or so. I never heard of it before I started reading the FML. Between his shoulders and along his spine seems to be his favorite. Thanks again. [Posted in FML issue 2972]
