My little ones all flat ferret from time to time. Isis does it
when she
thinks I am not playing with her enough. my boys do it after they
have
played too hard and are taking a breather... I think a certain
amount of
flat ferret is fine, but it is my understanding and I may be
wrong, that
too much flat ferreting could be indicative of other things. But
I do
think it is a normal behaivor.



I agree with her. All of mine do this for these reasons, and waiting
for
someone to get done with the litter box. When it's really hot and
humid they
do this a lot more and I know that they are starting to suffer from
the heat
and I take measures to cool them down. They also do this when they
are really
tired and still want to play. (like when company's over)
