It struck me as quite interesting that the last newsletter contained two items that tell us a lot about how ferrets work. First Brian tells us that they steal his socks. Then eric tells us that they steal the insoles out of his shoes. Yo u dont have to be named sherlock to figure that these two items are usually pretty funky smelling and, hence, quite attractive to ferrets. Similarly, my pet rar, one of the gentlest creatures in the world, could be counted on to bite my girlfriend's toes. In fact, she couldn't NOT bite them. What we find vaguely embarrassing about us can be a source of delight to many animals. [Posted in FML 0194]
