Ummmm you might want to know that poofing also has numbing properties. How do I know, you ask? Well.... Meethos was being his normal bully self and went after Maxim who promptly poofed all over him (I didn't know Maxim had scent sacs) and when I picked up Meethos to bite his neck I didn't know he'd been poofed.... thhhht... ptch... fptch... patooey.. I can't say there was much flavor, sort of an oil texture, but for at least 24 hours my upper lip was somewhat numb and tingly. Uh hum.... before you bite your ferret, make sure they haven't been poofed on the neck area....
