Had to comment on the ferret "fishing" trip! What a riot! Actually where I work we have an animal room that I am in charge of and one of our residents is a wonderful little fuzzbutt named Crimson. She absolutely loves goldfish! And she does eat them! I discovered this a year or so ago. I was getting some goldfish out of the aquarium to feed to our water turtles and one of them ended up on the floor. Crimson quickly grabbed it before I could do anything about it and she promptly ate it! So now every now and then we "accidently" drop goldfish on the floor for our little crimson to enjoy. She has never turned her nose up at them. I haven't tried this at home with my four darlings, as I've never brought any goldfish home but it sure might make bathtime more fun for them so maybe I will as a treat. Lord knows they love to snorkle in any body of water they find! Julie and Crimson and the fab four. [Posted in FML issue 2323]
