>..." My oldest boy Taz was sucking my oldest girl Kauliflower's ear >while they are in sleep."... You should have gotten messages about this by now, but: It happens all the time at my house, sometimes even to me! My ferrets live in my room and run around at night. Lizzy will commonly sit on my pillow above my head and sneak a few ear kisses. You know you are real strange when you "get-em" right back --> in fact, you'll make their day for some ferrets if you massage their ears and neck area. Some will position themselves for the best itch spot, using your fingers as a scratching post. Mark H. [Posted in FML issue 4299]
