I want to thank everyone that has sent mail on the two problems i posted about this past week. Update on Frosty, my starved fellow... he has put on 6 ounces already, is settling in well and got a clean bill of help from the vet. He has discovered that Ferretvite is good stuff, and now has the same reaction to the tube as the other guys, who are jealous that they don't get as much as he does. He has had no problems with the other ferrets, they have accepted him completely. Frosty even initiated a wresting match with Shadow this morning. The biter.... henceforth to be known as fury. Being the holiday season and hectic all over, i am reluctant to try and place her elsewhere, even with a more experienced ferret person. I have developed a tentative plan of attack to deal with her problem, and i intend to devote the next month to taming her down. If i have no luck, after the first of the year i will be in search of a home for her. I will be keeping her indoors... she has always been an outdoor ferret, but i think the constant exposure to ppl will help get her over some of her fear. Handling i am going to approach very slowly... i think the next week or so will be devoted soley to visiting with her through the wire, and picking her up after her free time. She is to get a treat after each outing.... wish me luck! val [Posted in FML issue 1398]
