Just a quick note on shampoo, conditioner, and stuff. We have found stuff that originally was for horses and is usually in the dog section, that is excellent. It is called mela-miracle, there is both a shampoo and a conditioner and both work well. We have had several people tell us they have never smelled ferrets that smell as good as ours, and the conditioner helps give both our ferrets beautiful coats (that and ferret-tone) The stuff is more expensive but worth it if you aren't big on the ferret musky smell. ---Rob and Suzie Matso-"Just give me a mint and I'll be happy" [Posted in FML issue 1203]
