>To: STANLEY K PHIPPS <[log in to unmask]> >Subject: Help! Eating cloth I've had ferrets that did this, and it was their way of telling me they were not happy with their diet. Try switching a food or flavor - offer the ferret several different foods and let them select what they want. When the ferret starts chewing on cloth again (may or may not happen), then switch foods again - some ferrets just need the variety. Also have the teeth looked at - are there any that look inflamed or dark? Is there a lot of tarter? Ferrets will chew cloth when their teeth hurt. Pam [Posted in FML issue 2123]
