I wouldn't let it worry you unless there is screaming and poop flying. My older one's did this with a kit for awhile. Tried to stash him in the hidey hole. When I would separate them the kit would come flying back for me. Regards, Hawk & Patrick, Salem, Faye, Bandit, Bowser and Bailey the ferts Pyewacket the cat and Smokey the African Grey and introducing Azriel the grey haired, green eyed kitten. Blessings to all animals great and small and those of us who love and adore them. [Posted in FML issue 3929]
