I wrote once before about my Kizzy Lea and as far as I know, nobody else has a foot Sucking ferret. I always thought it was strange, but cute, the way she will suck her hind foot when tired and then fall asleep with it in her mouth. This behavior keeps me wondering why. My daughter Nicole has a male ferret named Utah and he never sucked his hind foot, although he only has one to begin with. It would be interesting to know if anyone out there has a ferret that displays this unusual behavior or any other oddity. The best I can figure is that my little Kizzy Lea was taken from her blind mother because she was eating all of her kits. She was then given to an adoptive mother who also had kits and she seemed to do fine with her. I was given my Kizzy Lea when she was 4 weeks old and bottle feed her then mushed her out until she would eat the dry food. I wonder if she could feel insecure and that is why she sucks her foot. Anyway's I got my Kizzy Lea Spayed and descented a week ago and I was amazed at how quickly she recovered. I took pictures of the surgery and when I went to get them developed the processor exposed my film and I didn't get my pictures. Bummed me out, I have been keeping a picture scrapbook of my Kizzy Lea and really wanted them in there. I found that keeping a scrapbook like that really keeps me smiling and she loves the camera anyhow. She will strike a pose on command now. I truely believe as many of us do that my Kizzy Lea is a one of a kind. Kizzy Lea has a new friend that she can play with. Lexus is a beautiful kitten, cream and dark brown. Kizzy Lea gets one over on her now but just wait till the kitten grows into a cat. Watch out Kizzy Lea. She really is a Kizzy Bang. Maggie May and Kizzy Lea [Posted in FML issue 1278]
