Hello from Brad, Kelly, and Hobbes - the amazing carpet digging ferret. I would like to first say thank you to all of you who wrote with suggestions about my carpet problem. Many of you wrote and had great suggestions: 1. Plastic carpet runner, that can be bought at home depot or walmart, was the most popular. 2. Other suggestions were poster board 3. And sprinkling some pepper on the floor where the fuzzies dig. We have tried the plastic runner and it seems to be working well. Of course Hobbes loves to go under it but as some of you mentioned we are going to try fastening down the edges. On a different note we here are counting our blessings as we found a chewed up rubber band in Hobbes' poop today! Although we try to keep a clean, and ferret proofed home, he still managed to find a rubber band. It appears to have passed completely through without any problems! Keep am eye on your fuzzies! We are very thankful that Hobbes is okay. Again thanks and dooks to all! Brad, Kelly, and Hobbes (there must be some other things around here I can hide away) [Posted in FML issue 1813]
