I think I found the perfect stuff for the litter box. here in Italy now it is very on fashion to use ground straw and the compressed in pellet for horses. The pellet are a little bigger than a cigarette and if they it some it passes through as it turns into very little pieces like dust. it doesn't smell at all ( just a kind of tea aroma ). When it gets wet with warm liquids it grows a little bit and turn into straw dust. I used rabbit food which smells a lot and it ferments too (which is bad for ferrets I think). It is also very convenient I pay about 12 dollars (L.19.000) for about 50 lbs (25 kg). I just remove their stuff one a day and the litter box is always clean. Now I come with the question: is it the straw dangerous for ferrets? I think it isn't but please advice! ciao roberto Roberto is at [log in to unmask] [Posted in FML issue 1644]
