Hairballs... When I got me first ferret I had no idea about the whole hairball problem. It wasn't until I picked up my second that someone mentioned it to me. Well since then I have discovered that my guys think that Liver flavored cat hairball remedy is the best treat on the planet. They love it! Ian will even attack the bottle looking for more. Flopping... My Ian has done the flopping from day one. He will just be playing and suddenly, he just plops down. We call it "the-oh-my-gosh-I-just-can't-keep-going". He doesn't want to be picked up or anything. It is just rest time to catch his breathe. It is usually from this flopped position that all major attacks on George are launched. Sort of fool the enemy before attacking. Trish... Thank you for the kind words. What I did was nothing. Kelleen... Keep your chin up and give Rocki a big hug. She is in my prayers. Hugs to all of yours. KAtie -- Katie [log in to unmask] Technology Information Coordinator/Lecturer Carroll College 100 N.
