Hi, Just got thorough reading the FML for today. When I came upon the article about wondering about getting a waterbed and having ferret near the waterbed. I thought I had better let anyone thinking about this to reconsider. We have had waterbed for a long time, before we got ferrets. Just this past month my ferrets were in my sons room playing and when I came to get them and put them back in their own cages, I discovered a wet spot on the carpet, of course I thought that someone had used the bed for their potty and it was dripping off the bed, Well, I proceed to put ferret back in their room and go up and clean my sons room. When I investigated the linking coming from the bed, I discovered that it was not the ferret pottying on the bed, but that the waterbed now had a slow lick and discovered holes in the waterbed. So thank goodness we caught it soon enough before we had a flood up there. Now we no longer have Waterbeds! Yes they can bite thorough, also think about all the chemicals in that water. Please if you are going to get a waterbed, do not let your ferrets play in that bedroom! [log in to unmask] [Posted in FML issue 2504]
