Just a few comments and questions. I've seen a lot of talk about the disadvantages of cat food, and I'd love to give my kids ferret food. Problem is, they have a history of bladder infections, so the vet had me using Purina Special Care cat food. Well, after reading the FML, I switched them to MF, and the same week, wouldn't you know it, both had puffy, red bums! Should I just keep them on Special Care (which has been working for the cystitis), or is there a ferret food that will do the trick? Sweets: I've noticed lately that when I give the girls Nutri-Cal, they'll rub their faces on the carpet. It doesn't seem to be getting on their faces or whiskers, so the only thing I can think of is that it's too sweet or sticky for them (even though they're both addicts). Anyone else see this in their fuzzies? Ingenuity: Finally, after reading Sue's deletion story, I must share this. Thelma and Louise consistently delete things and cause crashes when they get on the keyboard, but what they did to my camera amazes me more. I had it on the bookcase, about 4' up. They pushed my desk chair over to the bookcase, climbed the seat, to the arms, to the high back, and must have knocked the camera down, then returned to the floor and played with it. They managed to open the back, exposing the film, and somehow advanced the counter to "start" without rolling the film back. As a result, the film was a total loss, since I couldn't remove it from the camera without exposing the whole roll. They must fancy themselves FLO operatives, destroying enemy surveillance photos of them! *************************** Christine Hamilton [log in to unmask] ********************************************************** "Ivanova is always right.
