Stephanie, next time you can get an excellent low entry litter pan for now much money from http://www.theferretstore.com . They carry multiple sizes and styles and we are happy with them. Plus, they are already smooth so they won't cut the ferrets' anuses. Rescues who had been exposed to cigarette smoke: Diddy, watch them more carefully for lymphoma/lymphosarcoma. Studies don't exist in ferrets, but in cats it is known that the risk of this type of malignancy goes up greatly with exposure to cigarette smoke. [Posted in FML issue 3944]
