Just like humans and even most other animals ferrets have tastes they either find, discover or nurture. I had a cat that would kill for a cruller, if you had one would be best to have the darn cat outside lest you loose a finger or even your tongue for the cruller attack. Kodo, a ferret, wanted chocolate in the very worst way. Of course I could not give him any where it is most unhealthy for animals to have chocolate. If I was eating chocolate ice cream I had to put Kodo in another room for two big reasons, first was he could hot have any for his better health and second I could not stand to see him begging and doing all he could to have even just a taste. The ferret nose is as sharp as a blood hound. Byte-me loved chocolate also. I had an empty box clairs came in and threw that in the trash. Of course Byte-me got into the trash and licked the frosting off the inside of the box. She lost all her fur except on the ankles, feet and head. That was a good lesson for me to be far more careful. Please be careful on what you allow your ferts eat when it comes to human food. It could turn very deadly and painful for both you and the fuzz butt. Gordon, Peekaboo and Pester. Rev.
