Subject: [Ferret-Health-list] rehab for ferrets good subject
Janice ,
My boys always loved it when I would start dragging the
kitchen rug around and they would jump on for a "Magic Carpet
Ride". THey would chirp and talk their little mouths off. I
also would hide little treats under things (pillows, inside a
bag ect..)and have them find them. It was a hoot watching
them! KM

This is a really good subject, one we don't think about
discussing, but just as important as meds, etc. Sukie, your
ideas on mental stimulation gave me some ideas for my own
guys. Thanks, I'm going to try some new things for my guys,
all of them, especially my old, old guys. I have two that
are 10 years plus and they could use a little mental
stimulation just to make their day more fun. I usually just
cuddle them, but they are still a ferret and in need of
excitement and fun. What would be some good stimulation for
a 10 year plus ferret who can no longer play or move fast?
I do know that they still love to get in to a paper bag and
the sounds the bag makes when scrunched.
Jan, the ferret Mom of many.
