Hi all, First I woulld like to thank all of you who helped me out I have recived many suggestions, and I plan to try them all. To answer many of your questions, Flotsom and Jetsom are both "fixed", and "desmelled". I also clesn their bedding every 2-3 days!!! As for their litter box, it is cleaned out every day, and changed every other day with Bio flush compressed (recycled) newspaper pellets. It is not so much me that the smell bothers, but it is my family. Most likley the fact that they are not used to the musky odor from the ferrets. Everyone knows the smell of cats and dogs!!! They don't seem to realize that. Flotsom, Jetsom and I are very grateful to you all!!! Again, thanks for all of your help. before I end my letter, I am feeding them Iams kitten (purple bag). Should I be feeding them a ferret diet like totally ferret or marshalls? I have found that they are much more expensive, and I was given a sample and they refused to eat it. Thanks for all the help ;o) Sue, Flotsom and Jetsom [Posted in FML issue 2030]
