Subject: Re: Melatonin ???
--I was the one that posted the question about Melatonin I had read
somewhere it was a drug used to treat Adrenal ferrets, I wanted to
know if anyone else has tried it. As far as the thing about the cats,
we have 5 ferrets and two cats and 3 of our ferrets do that same
thing. we don't know why. but it has been fun to see who out lasts
who almost always the cat that moves first
