Hi Shona and other FML members, Hope you like the videos, it shows mustelids in their natural habitats... Feel free to sign our guestbook. Just a "warning" though: konijn = rabbit and prooi = prey... People that don't want to see a polecat or stoat catch and eat a rabbit, please skip the video's with those words in the title... For those interested: the title of our page is muizenvangende diefjes, which means Mouse-catching little thieves (Mustela putorius furo... without the smelly part ;-) and as for this one: >You Aussies may feed live/natural prey and that's fine, but *PLEASE* do >not try ramming your way of thinking or your practices down our throats! >We are intelligent creatures and can think for ourselves. Do you mind? I am also one of the people that feeds a natural diet to her ferrets (including dead -not live- mice, that are humanely killed). And no I am not an "aussie" (I'm from Belgium, Europe). I think it's a shame though that some people are so narrowminded as to "blame" it one's nationality when they have a different opinion about something... Although "blame" is in fact not a good word for this, as I totally agree with "them aussies", and I admire them for being so patient to answer all of the questions on this list for the last few weeks. Unfortunately I haven't had enough time to do this, and I'm afraid I wouldn't have had the patience either... So thanks Shona, Shirley and everyone else! I hope that people who are sincerely interested in feeding their ferrets a more natural diet, won't let themselves deter! Regards, Wendy PS: I'm sorry for my bad english, I'm not a native speaker...
