To Shawn and Chase: Yes, hotter temperatures in the garage could hurt, or maybe kill, your ferrets. In some ways, I think garages are similar to cars: they just trap heat and have little ventilation. My garage can be extremely hot and uncomfortable in summer, and it has more than once occurred to me that this could be dangerous to my fuzzies on a particularly warm day. Heck, my fuzzies got lethargic just being in the house before the swamp cooler was turned on one spring while I went rafting and it was unseasonally warm outside. Linda [Posted in FML issue 1462]
