Hi fellow FMLer's, Now I need some helpfull input on this because I have been sitting here pondering & thinking for hours & have not been able to come up with an answer. Here is my story: I am owned by 2 wonderfull little Ferrets. Angel will be 2 next month & she is the sweetest & the most kissy little girl. Waddles will be 2 in October. He was a rescue but had been very well taking care of. I have had him for a little over a year. He is also a real sweetie pie but does NOT give kisses. I've done everything but he won't give them up. I did get him to lick my arm a few times. Well this afternoon my hubby's friend stopped over with his wife, 10yr. old son & 5month old baby. The little boy just loves ferrets so I took Angel out & he carried her around for a bit & she gave her usual bunches of kisses. Then I gave him Waddles to hold. He started out by licking his hand, then up to his cheek, his nose, his eyes giving him more kisses than I have ever seen!!! Now I am the one who feeds him & hugs him & loves him & not a kiss for me!!! Go figure. I am a very upset Mommy. What am I doing wrong? This was the first person he has ever reacted to like this. He has been around children before & where he came from was an adult home so I have no clue as to why he had this reaction to this particular little boy? Anyone have any ideas?.........
