Um ... have you ever put something rubber on your finger and stuck it in
your ferret's mouth? Maybe your experience is different, but MY ferret bit
the *heck* out of me, thinking I'd stuffed a nice rubber chewy thing in his
mouth! Ow!!!

Is there a reason why I shouldn't be using a soft child's toothbrush? They
bite that, too, but at least I don't feel it! LOL!
