Yes, there is 29% alcohol in the Bach Rescue Remedy. I was told (but please let me know if the info is wrong) that by leaving the Remedny open for a while the alcohol would evaporate but the essence of the flowers would remain. I was concerned about giving him something with alcohol in it too. He isn't too interested in the Remedy but I leave it in a little bowl just in case he wants to drink from it. They have their regular water bowl too. Someone posted about putting a suction cup with a hook on it on the ceiling and hanging a bobber from it. GREAT IDEA!!! A friend gave me a toy that hangs from the top of the cage for them (yes my friends spoil they also, it was a great well present for Butch when he was sick) but they forget that they are "freedom ferrets" and not caged. So I have this great toy but didn't know what to do with it! Now I do. Butch and Maggie thank you! Connie [Posted in FML issue 2991]
