I recently adopted a ferret at the Ohio Buckeye Bash. It is becoming evident to me that I'm pretty sure he is deaf. He doesn't react to the squeaker toy like my little girl does (she comes running every time) he seems like he doesn't even hear it. He is a chocolate 1 1/2 yr old, but his head is very light colored & he has a very faint mask (I know light colored heads are likelier to be deaf). My question is for those of you out there who have deaf ferts - how do you "call" them when you are looking for them in your house? We have a couch that they have always gotten under, but I swear Danny is getting INTO it somewhere somehow because when I flip the thing over (the bottom cloth has been long gone) he is nowhere to be seen & I can't get him to come to me to put him in the cage for the night when I can't find him! Any tips would be greatly appreciated! Jacci Copeland Kira the Wonder-Fert & Danny Phantom [Posted in FML issue 5374]
