Litter box update: Well, the little shark (still without a name) is not 100% after all. I just discovered a bunch of surprises that have been left for me under the bed. I cleaned the area up, and sprayed it liberally with No-Go. If this keeps up, I may just put a litter box under there. Although he is still warming up to me VERY slowly, I discovered by accident this afternoon that he loves riding around in my inside jacket pocket. I'd taken him to meet a friend, and I was holding him against my body, when he suddenly "burrowed" inside my jacket and into the pocket. He stayed in the pocket for quite a while, eventually curling up and going to sleep. That might be the best way to get him used to me; he really liked being in there, yet he was on my person and surrounded by my smell. I've never seen him that relaxed when I've held him in any other way. Chris and The Ferret With No Name Bellingham, WA. [Posted in FML issue 0763]
