Just a quick note to say that I just had something happen with my little Gus man that I've never read about nor experienced until today. Somehow Gus got himself up inside of our wood stove and was buried in the wood ash! Wood ash is caustic. Needless to say he immediately had a bath, which of course he hated but... Five minutes later I caught him trying to get back inside again! I would say to those of you with wood stoves, there is quite often a small space that is open. I think it may have something to do with the air/draft. When you're not using the stove, please check to see if you can block it off. Curious ferrets.... Barb and the 4 whirling dervishes...Gus, Zak, Hope and Bren! [Posted in FML issue 3076]
