I have to agree with Karen when she went on about how the feeding of mice is not totally barbaric. If you disagree, do you eat hamburger? Oh dear (insert favoured deity here), you have eaten a dead cow. You terribly barbaric heartless cruel person. Oh gee, oh gosh, when will the world learn... etc. Anyway. I actually have a question about this (it may be a dumb one though, I'm just wondering): You buy pinkies frozen, yes? Well, do you let them thaw or what? I honestly had never thought about giving mice to Bink until I read about it on here. Thinking about it now, it does make sense. When giving them to a ferret, how many do you give? or does it all depend on the fuzzie? I'm trying to litter train Binky. Is there a certain way this can be done, or is it just basically persistance? I'd like to let him run around my room, so later on today I'll be off to buy a box and a pooper scooper. I've already gotten up all of the wires he could chew on, but I'm wondering if I can leave then down (a radio and a phone, so there aren't that many) and just spray them with bitter apple to keep him from chewing on them. Any help would be greatly appreciated. One last question. This little furball has got some nails on him! Is it possible to clip them without hurting him, or will I just have to get over it? Thanks Everyone, Take Care Meghan and the Binkster:-) [Posted in FML issue 3938]
