Our newest ferret member, Sonya Rose, is mostly blind. She's been here four or five months I think. She used to scream like crazy whenever any ferret got near her and pooped all over herself, that ferret, and whatever else came in contact with them. Over the months she has gotten a bit better. I tossed her in the cage with everyone else, because the vet said she'd live another couple of years and I didn't want to deal with separate cages. Also, the one ferret she was okay with, Old Moe, seemed to prefer kenneling with the younglings. Sonya has gotten to where she'll accept cuddles from Old Moe, Jared, Mimzy, and sometimes Ursa. My little "angel" Gracie still attacks her, so Sonya still screams when she realizes Gracie is near. The other guys walk up to her slowly, let her sniff them and figure out it's safe, and them snuggle her. She doesn't play with anyone. She occasionally walks through a tube, and she walks around the edges of the rooms she's allowed in. --gwen [Posted in FML 6517]
