hello gang. I am so thankfull for all the responses on the flea issue.....I am also relieved to hear about the aqdvantage. we have some here for our kitten and I am very glad that it could be used for poor slinky. At one point the poor thing had alot of them and her flea shampoo(made for ferrets) just wasn't cutting the mustard!!!! I was worried about her. after we tamed the fleas down she returned to her normal self!!! I also got in contact with a ferret shelter(little paws and was sent to another one) and they have a few Blaze ferrets. does anyone have a picture of blaze ferrets??? I have found lots of sableas,silvermitts,albinos(which slinky is) but not much for blazes and my daughter wants to see a picture. I am so excited about possably getting another ferret!!!!! I am also looking forward to the ferret awareness day in merrimak!!! thanks for all your help guys!!!! I am happy to say the fleas are just about history!!!!!! amen to that!!!!! Love, laughter and prayers NIKKI and slinky. ===== Love,laughter and prayers NIKKI Live well; laugh often;and love always [Posted in FML issue 3166]
