>Has anyone else observed their ferrets scooting on the floor after using the >litter box? Hi Joseph, Yes - all three of my ferrets, who range in age from 6 mos to 2 1/2 years old, "scoot" or drag their bottoms on the floors after using the litterbox. At first I was a little worried about it, but then learned thru the FML that this is extremely common, and normal - they are just being hygenic! and some say they also spread their scent this way. Nothing to worry about at all, and if you want to keep your floors clean, just place some newspaper under and around your litterboxes to save your carpets. I always giggle when I see mine doing it, it looks so funny I call them "draggy-butts"... :-) Jen, Jasmine, Casey and Sammy [Posted in FML issue 1999]
