To Debbie: A while back, someone suggested the 'biting back' method. When your ferret sinks his teeth into you, sink yours into him. My ferret has never had a big problem with biting, but this has worked better than anything with my cat, whose favorite passtime is biting mom on the nose. Some people say it makes them feel guilty, but I really don't understand why. He bit you first, and his teeth are sharper. Just make sure he hasn't been rolling in the litter box;). About yeast: This may be an *incredibly* stupid question, but it's not like I never said anything stupid before, so here goes. You know how you can't throw rice at weddings anymore because the birds will eat too much, the rice will expand in their tummies, and their stomachs explode?(yik!) Well, wouldn't yeast expand in one's stomach, too? If so, how much could you safely give a ferret? *********************************************************************** | your name here | | [log in to unmask] | *********************************************************************** [Posted in FML issue 1363]
