These puns are becoming more and more difficult to digest! If this sort of regurgitation continues, us poor FML readers will have to chew through more and more non-ferret related posts (even though some may be quite a gas to read). Tsk! Back on topic. [Moderator's note: OK, you're right. Too many inside jokes. I'll quit now. ;-) BIG] Re: bad ferret eyesight. I think it's selective. My weasels have xray vision when it comes to spotting me taking out the raisins (ie, through the walls, around corners), but utterly fail to notice me when they're digging in my clothes hamper or the trash and i walk into the room, catching them in the act. Re: missing targets - it's probably more an issue of depth perception and lighting than anything else - ferrets' eyes are more to the sides of their heads than the front, and while this gives them a wider circle of vision, it detracts from their ability to judge depth and distance. Mine seem to first look straight at something, then look at it with one eye, then look at it with the other. If they're getting ready to jump, they bob their heads while looking straight at the target (cats do this too), probably to better judge distance by changing the angles at which they're seeing the object.
