she opened her eyes and looked at us like "What's Up?
What did I miss?" It seems to be an individual thing. Some ferret
ferrets do it a lot, some don't seem to do it at all.
I too have been through it. My first ferret seems to do it more than
the others. What usually happens with most of mine is that they get
so sound asleep, they won't wake up, but are warm and you can see
them breathing. My first fuzzy has done the complete DFS about five
times. The last one happened during this summer. I had AC and it was
76 in their room. This episode really freaked me out because he was
COLD to the touch!!! He was also laying in a way he never did
before, wrapped around the food bowl. I use ferretone to wake them
up. It is funny to see their nose start twitching....
