>We found recently at PetSmart a litter called Swheat or something like it. >It is a litter containing wheat. The ferrets seem to love it and so does >my cat. It's fairly inexpensive.

What do you experts think? I tried yesterdays news and they >don't seem to like it and the odor is realy bad with it. We clean their >pan every night since we have four babies. Yes, I use this wheat litter also and the smell is much better, I think. And I can buy a 14 lb bag for $9 and this will last my six ferts for a month or more. It does clump hard and can stick to the bottom of the pan but as long as I keep enough litter in the pan, it won't stick. I thought Yesterdays News and those pine litters worked well but smelled horrid. www.swheatscoop.com >Also, I think one of my babies is deaf any suggestions? I also have 2 deaf ferrets. Honestly, I don't notice much difference between ones who hear and those who can't and I don't treat them differently. My DEW, Ouzo, who is deaf tends to watch people more. He is always looking straight at us and is very aware of his surroundings. I rarely walk up and scare him. But I have a deaf blaze that many times I have walked up to and scared him silly and he runs under the sofa, then peeks out, then crawls right back out to play. :) Also when those two sleep, they really sleep. A woman who was babysitting them all for me honestly thought my DEW was dead because he would not wake up. :) Ingrid [Posted in FML issue 3437]
