Hello to all! Some random things I would like to share. On Digging fuzzies: I have to agree with Edward Lipinski on the ferret smelling good after having a dig in the earth. I try take my ferret out every day to have a good dig. He smells truly wonderful after a nice long digging session! Allthough I have to fill in a giant hole after he is done for the day but it's worth every pound of dirt! I think he is a happier ferret for it as well. On Christmas Trees etc.. I chose an artificial tree of 4' and stand it on a table top with a tree skirt he can't climb on because of it's slickness. Polished cotton works wonders people! Of course I have learned to keep it away from other furniture because you wouldn't beleive how far this lil' guy can jump! My christmas stockings have been put up a little higher cause he makes holes in the "toes" trying to get them off the walls by jumping for them. However I have gotten some just for him (he still wants mine!) It's so cute to see him all snuggly in them. I hope to have a picture posted soon! Sneaky Eating Habits: The food was gone from his dish but I didn't see him eat it. This was going on for a few days before I realized my four year old daughter was hand feeding him under the couch I think he prefers to eat this way and they are both having much fun. ******ALSO****** Does anyone know how bad chocolate is for a ferret? Mine ate at least a table spoon of chocolate frosting out of my kitchen sink after I was done making a cake! Last But NOT Least! I would love to thank the Big guy that does the list.. it must take a lot of time and effort to do this. I feel I am getting to know the people here like family and look foward to reading the entire digest every day. Thank You! Well thats all I can think of for now I'm sure I will add something else later. Kathy, Jessie and of course the stocking stealer Sosha (sorry bout the length!) [Posted in FML issue 2146]
