 Subject: ferret products
 
Thank you for writing and expressing your concerns regarding our articles
and products related to ferrets.
 
I am currently in the process of reviewing all of our bird and small pet
products.  I agree that although the Fiesta Ferret food has an adequate
amount of protein and fat, there are better products on the market.  I
will be recommending an alternative.
 
I will be sharing your e-mail with both our Merchandising Departments and
our copywriters.
 
Again, I appreciate that fact you took the time to write and express your
concerns.
 
Sincerely,
 
Holly R. Nash, DVM, MS
