DICK B. ~~~~~~~ I loved your story about the fellow who used the PVC pipe to create an outdoor maze for the ferrets. I think I'd be a little worried about it myself because of the escape artists talents that never cease to amaze me, but it sounds like its a wonderful area for them. If I had the money and the yard..... J. MATTHEW SAUNDERS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We use Petromalt daily for ours. Its given as a morning treat. All of them beg for it and come to the sound of the name Petromalt. We leave their food out always, so as far as that 2 hours before and 2 hours after food rule, we've been disregarding it for almost 3 years now. - Mish __MICHELLE Z.
