Since these wild fuzzies of ours are great at making messes,it's time we humans got some help in cleaning up. The best use for that extra fuzzy ferret is as a dust collector.This can also be a game,if it's done right. To dust under the bed,use 2 humans,one on either side of the bed.Now,slide the ferret from person to person,back and forth under the bed.After all, ferrets have been used to catch bunnies for a long time.We're just catching dust bunnies.Make sure to shake out the ferret after dusting,or they'll just put it all back. You can play this game on a dusty table or shelf also.It is recommended that you remove all breakable items first,or your ferret may stop the game to do some cleaning of their own. Ferrets with long whiskers are very good for cleaning those hard to reach cobwebs.You know,the ones behind the dresser and bookshelves you never get around to dusting.Always check your ferret for stray spiders,that's just dusting etiquette. Your athletic ferret is good for cleaning that dirty ceiling fan.CAUTION: Never turn the fan on while cleaning is in progress.Dusting the tv screen can be fun,but remember,if you rub too hard,your ferret may stick to the screen.Of course,this can be useful,if your ferret is misbehaving.Caution should be used in cleaning the computer monitor screen.Never,never leave your ferret alone with the computer.The FLO is active and computer literate. The main rule of cleaning with your ferret is to have fun.You and your fuzzy can enjoy many long hours of dusting enjoyment,and you'll have a home that's cleaner,even if your fuzzy isn't.
