You should forgive yourself for this accident. My Calvin runs for the dishwasher every time I open it. Now that I know for certain, I do have to check. I am terrified of an accident with my ferrets. That is what that was, an accident a painful one. I can tell from what you write that you really have loved your fuzzies so put this incident away and don't dwell on it any more. My Gypsy runs for the refrigerator - every ferret is different and I almost shut her in there the first time. I never would have expected this because Calvin is never interested in it. We can all learn from your experience. They are unpredictable. Eunice Calvin (Mom, you know I like to help with the dishes) Gypsy ( What in the heck is he doing in there?) [Posted in FML issue 2514]
