To: Susan Downey <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Funny Happy Ferret Story....your new tent Now that story was great! If I only had money and room to go out and buy a new tent! I'm still laughing. My husband is off work for a while so I've been reading some of the funny stories to him also. He loved this one! Thanks for sharing it. Did you ever get it all put away? To: Melissa Litwicki <[log in to unmask]> Subject: FAQ game section idea Ok...here's a good one. Take a ball of yarn.........keeping one end stuck near you and then toss it. The fuzzies will go nuts, if they are anything like mine, trying to unwind it all. They love to roll it in and toss the yarn about. When finished...take the reserved end and re-roll it back up into a ball. I don't worry about the knots that they have created. Subject: Securing the Litter Pan I am proud to say none of my fuzzies ever go potty any other place now, except in their sand box. It amazed me at just how quick they stopped making extra messes. I have 2 sand boxes. The first one I put 2 holes in one side and attached it to the side of their cage with tie wraps....cut the extra ends off (they have a 2 level cage). Then I fill the second box half full with the sand and gentle put it in the other box. Now they can't move either one and will go out of their way to get back to their cage when it's time to go potty. I haven't had an extra mess anyplace since. Although with 4 I clean out the sand box 3 times a day, which probably helps also. Cheers, Chuckles, Dooks and a Howl from the crew.....
