I'm usually just a lurker, but I couldn't resist this one... First ferret, Jerry: Would wag his tail when he was hiding inside pillowcases. If you scratched your finger on the top of the pillowcase, his tail would go THUMP THUMP THUMP. Would jump off the couch into a plastic bag. Quite the circus trick. Second fert, Buddy: Instead of hoping side-to-side when he was playing, he would buck his hind legs like he was in a rodeo. Current ferret, Maggie: If we see her doing something she's not allowed to be doing, she will go flat on the ground. Does she actually think we can't see her? All 3 would wipe their chins on the carpet after having Ferretone. Gotta love ferts... Nancy [Posted in FML issue 4857]
