Well, after building a 4 story 96 sq foot cage, complete with ramps, tunnels and multiple play areas, I decided it was time to get our long time fuzzy friend Cody, a playmate. Cody is a Male Cinammon and has been with us four years. We purchased Samantha, (Sami), a gorgeous six month old female Albino that broke our hearts when we saw her today. She is a little beauty. Unfortunately, although they are spayed/neutered, it appears that Cody has become a bit territorial. I had hoped the brand new cage would help, but apparently he is already king of the hill. :) I'm afraid to leave them alone. Cody bites and chases Sami all over. I'm unaccustomed to the rough-housing we witnessed today at the Pet store. Cody has not broken the skin, or even caused Sami to yelp, but she runs to get away from him, and his behavior is extremely aggressive. Sami keeps trying to escape the cage to get away from Cody. I feel sorriest right now for Sami. I have integrated her into an unfriendly environment, when she is used to being with many many ferrets and appeared to enjoy their company. I knew this would not be the easiest thing, but Sami was used to cuddling up with all her other fuzzy friends, and now they both curl up alone on different levels of their new home. My questions are...is there anyway I can make this transition easier on both of my fuzzies, and is Sami at any danger from Cody's rough play? Cody was biting her pretty hard on the back of her neck, so I placed a tiny amount of Bitter Apple on her fur at the very back of her neck. It appeared to set him back a little bit but not to stop the fighting. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance! Regards, Jeff [Posted in FML issue 1391]
