First of all, I would like to thank everyone involved on the FML. You've truly made my life and my loved one happier. My name is Amy, and I have only one love of my life (for right now) named Austin. He has truly been a joy to have. This is my first time writing, and I'm addressing questions I haven't seen answered before. So, I apologize now if I repeat anything! :) 1)Fleas I am sad to say that my little fuzzie has fleas. The shampoo that I am using is ferret-safe, but it doesn't help with the fleas. I don't think they're too bad now, but I want to attack them before it's too late. My question is this...What kind of flea shampoo is ferret-safe? And, if there isn't any, how do I get rid of them. 2)Drafts Austin sleeps in his cage at night, and I not sure if it's safe. During the night, our heater kicks on across the room from Austin. I'm pretty sure he's OK, but I don't know if he's getting a draft. I have had him for 4 months now, and he shows no signs of being affected. I'm curious if he is safe. 3)Descenting My vet doesn't believe in descenting ferrets. Will he be "OK" without taking that horrible smell away? Well, that's all for now. Thanks again for everything. The stories I've read, and the things I've learned are priceless. If you don't mind, could you e-mail your responses. I have been having trouble with my listserv mail. Thanks again!
