I'm seeing this with Cully now too-- after increasing his pred, his hind end is generally sturdier, but he's taken by surprise by bowel functions (luckily not urinary as well!). It will often happen when he's eating food or drinking water-- it's almost as though he can't pay attention to both ends at the same time. He always looks really chagrined when it happens, as he's always been a most fastidious ferret. Poor old guy. We just moved recently, and Cully's decided to play who's the boss all over again with my fiancee. Cully knows that I'm boss ferret, and that he can't take Amelia, but poor Mathew is fair game. Cully's settling down now, but jeepers this has been most trying for everyone... I already knew I was the luckiest woman in the world, but his putting up with Cully just reaffirms that ;-) Regina Harrison [log in to unmask] or [log in to unmask] http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Lofts/1083 http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/Labyrinth/8096 This city is an ogre squatting by the river It gives life but it takes it away, my youth There comes a time when you just cannot deliver This is a fact.
