My name is Amber and I have a feeling I will soon be joining the ranks of ferret nut :) Recently, I just acquired a baby ferret - It's a boy and he told me his name is Slinky. I thought it was fitting so he keeps it :) I have read through the FAQ and the Articles 1-5 for answers to this question, but the answers there don't seem to help. Slinky is resistant to litter box training. I will admit that I am a cat lover and am used to how quickly cats adapt to the box (show it to em and never worry about it again :) Slinky just doesn't want to use his box. He has a hammock but prefers sleeping in his litter box. I have tried scooping his poopy up and depositing in the box, only for him to scoop it out with his mouth, put it back in the corner of his cage where I got it from and curling up protectively in the box again. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. His is 13 weeks old - still a baby. Will he be even more stubborn as he approaches teenage years? LOL! Any help is GREATLY appreciated.
