HI Cindy, That is too funny about the ferrets and mice. The reason I say that is because we have 13 cats and at least every winter they catch and play with a mouse or two. They rarely kill the poor little tortured things. Well while moving furniture to find the hidey hole toys in the living room where they free roam when we are home I found indication of a mounse that had apparently been living behind our sofa. Ha ha....little mouse. He must have skeedaddled away with the ferrets running in and out because we have not seen any more signs. I think because the ferrets are able to get in the smaller spaces than the cats could like under and behind the sofa that they were also leaving their musky scent and the mice are scared away by them. This is the first year in 11 years in our house that I have not even seen an actual mouse. Yeah for ferrets and mice :-). Have a great day Love & angel hugs Debbie [Posted in FML issue 3721]
