Joe wrote about his "attack ferret" - it attacked whoever was around, including kids, when a certain toy was squeaked. For heaven's sake, Joe, throw away that toy! I'm not sure why some squeaks provoke some ferrets to bite, but who cares? You can't afford to have her biting anyone, especially children. It might be that the sound hurts her ears (that's my theory), it might be that it provokes some kind of hunting instinct, but it doesn't really matter. Just keep it from happening. You don't want biting to become a habitual behavior for her. Good luck! ---sharin [Posted in FML issue 3113]
