Good Morning to ALL and their Fuzzy's!!!! Hope all is well for everyone and their fuzzy's. Let me begin with my newest addition ( a 4 month old rescue, but not from a bad situation ) now named Rosy, because of her coloring. She is the joy of my life and was fated to come home with me, even my boys ( Tazy and Trouble ) have taken her under their wing ( so to speak ) they just LOVE her to pieces, of course she is still a kit and wants to raise hell with the boys but they humor her and play right along with her!!!! It's the cutest thing as she is very petite and the next thing I know is she's scruffing my biggest boy ( Tazy ) and trying her best to drag him across the room hee hee hee,and Tazy just lays their being the laid back ferret that he is and loves every minute of it!!!! Now Trouble is another story thats Rosy's wrestling partner, of course he doesn't hurt her, just plays with her as he is only 7 months old and still has allot of pent up energy in him!!!!!!! I just want to say how thankful I am to have such wonderful furkids, and none of them are biters!!!!! Ferrets are the BEST thing that has ever happened to me, and I could never imagine living without one!!!!! And on another note my next subject is ear mites (which unfortunately mine have contacted) I had my Tazy to the vet thursday evening due to the uncontrollable scratching he was doing after I cleaned his ears, and was informed he had ear mites BIG TIME, my other two are going today for the same problem and to get them started on meds also. I believe they got it from a ferret that I was sitting for, which brings up the fact that if your sitting for someone elses ferts keep yours as far away from them as you can!!!! My question is this, has anyone out there experienced this problem, and if so, do you have any suggestions inregard to ridding the cages of these pesky mites? Also what would be best to wash the cages, bedding, toys and whatever else these mites might attach themselves to? I would appreciate any and all suggestions. Well, I've bent everyones ear long enough so I will close for now. HUGS AND KISSES TO ALL FUZZY"S IN THE WORLD!!!!! MAY THE FUZZY G_D WATCH OVER ALL SICK AND HOMELESS FERRETS OUT THERE, AND PROTECT THEM!!!! :-) :-) :-) :-) Dawn, Tazy, Trouble, and Rosy [Posted in FML issue 2752]
