I tried something today that really got my ferret's attention. I went to the pet store (exotic bird department) and bought dried fruit consisting of dried raisins, banana chips, pineapple, apricot, etc. I placed the mix in a blender and added about half a cup of water. The result was a sweet mushy sauce (consistency of applesauce). They loved it - I sampled it myself and it WAS GOOD! I only gave them a little as a treat but wanted to share. It is much cheaper than buying the standard ferret treats. Someone mentioned that fruit might not be good for their health... is this true? [Posted in FML issue 3201]
