Two of my ferrets, both of which I know are from Marshall's, have the usual two dots on the right ear. Their cagemate, Oscar, has a tattoo in the same spot, but it's a short line. (It's as if someone took a Sharpie marker and connected the pair of dots). It's uniformly black, no light area between the ends, so I don't think it's made of dots run together. Anyone know who tattoos their ferrets with a right-ear line segment? Dan Muldoon Omaha, NE [Posted in FML issue 4594]
