Hey everyone, i just thought that i would tell you all of the "REALLY" stupid thing that i let happen... i have had ferrets for 4 years now...i know better, i really do... i let my dog (chiuahua/terrier) play with tolit paper rolls...i always cut them lenghtwise before i toss them on the ground for him to play with... well i wasnt feeling good the other day and cheyenne was jumping up and down to get it...so i just gave it to him...we let the ferrets out later that evening and i didnt think anything about it...i walked out to get a drink and go to the bathroom to check on my husband...i told my son to go back there and play with them..because we have a new one (3months old) (his name is "SPAZ") and i didnt want him to be bullied...i got 2 girls (chi and cloyee) that are ruthless...(one gets on one end and the other on the other end) (well u can just imagine...hahahaha) (not little angels)... he went right back...next thing i know he comes walking out with spaz... spaz had that D*%& tolit paper roll on his head...im ripping it off while yelling at my son saying why didnt you take it off...i swear it was less than 3 minutes before he went back...and in that short of time see what can happen...spaz was in distress...so here i am giving him water by way od syringe and also trying to cool him down under running cold water in the sink...im doing this and calling the vet...he said that i did do the right thing...but i felt so bad...it wasnt spaz fault it was mine...i could have lost him in less than 5 minutes...thats all i would have taklen...so please "ALWAYS" rip them or just throw them away...dont make my mistake...as it could take the life of your little one...he is th only one out of 11 ferrets that like them...go figure..i kept checking on him all night MORE THAN USUALY..he gave me kisses after that...i cried...cause this ferrts still nips...he doesnt kiss...he does now...i didnt try to hurt him but i did and i now know that he must forgive me for being so stupid!!! so again please dont be a dummy like me!!!
