We always take a little dropper bottle of Ferretone with us to the vet.
If they're staying for the day, the bottle goes with them. It works
really well for distracting from some things like shots or the dreaded
temperature-taking. Unfortunately, it's usually not enough for blood
draws, but it's still handy to have afterwards to take the fuzzy's mind
off of what just happened. :)

BTW, I would *love* to know what on earth Ashling thinks she's doing by putting her hands in there! How very, very *odd*! LOL!

Cheers,
