This message is directed to Debbie who was seeking nail trimming advice. I struggled with nail trimming and it required two people until I discoved this simple trick. I lay the ferret on its back on my lap with the top of its head towards me. I put a drop of the liquid vitamin supplement that they love in a small puddle on their belly so that they can easily lap it while I can trim their nails. (I think its Furrotone?) It works beautifully. They are so ingrossed in lapping the vitamin that they'll let me do anything. They actually stand in line trying to climb up my leg to be next or to help their buddies lick it off! Hope it helps!
