Hi all . . . I've heard that toddlers can get nicotine poisoning from eating cigarettes--so I imagine ferrets can too, and from far less a quantity. We noticed Pepper was interested in cigarettes on day 1, so we take great pains to keep them out of his reach. Smokey got her name from stealing a cigarette right out of a pack! The filter is maybe more interesting to them than the tobacco, but even still, fibreglass can't be good for them either. --Sherri [Posted in FML issue 1735]
