Hi Everyone... I read all the posts but do not always have the time to post back. I want to take this opportunity to thank each and everyone of you for sharing and helping each other as well as myself. I was new to ferrets last September when Gabriel and Michael (2 1/2 & 3mo old whe we got them) entered our lives and without this board I don't think I would have made it through the first month of new ferret mommy. Those first two taught us ALOT!!! Then came Maggie who brought along her brothers Raphel & Ariel all of which were a mere 7 weeks old with Ariel being deaf. Wow when ferret math takes over and hands you a ton of lessons to learn you start to wonder how you got started. Then while out for supplies little baby Sarah came into our lives because I felt bad that she was all alone. With each set we learned a little more and with all the reading and posts I thought I knew alot...buy hey we can always learn something right? So when ferret math struck again yesterday I was not surprised but much more ready this time....what I was not ready for was the fact that they told us they were not litter trained. I don't know why because Maggie, Ariel and Raphael were suppposedly litter trained and their cages were always a mess (although they are litter trained now). Well these 3 took the cage by storm and set up house. Even at 7 weeks old they are powerhouses and quick learners. From about 2PM yesterday until this morning they went totally in their litter box. One of our 7mo olds went in and left some poop so that was the start and they caught on from there. Not one miss. I am so proud of them. Thanks to the advice I have gotten from here and the participants from here over the past months has helped immensely. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone and keep on sharing. Know that my thoughts and prayers are with all of you Love & angel hugs Debbie & her fur crew [Posted in FML issue 3809]
