All of them will kind of chew on my finger when I try to apply it, but
this was Fox actively biting at a different finger. He will do that
when he is upset. It was my fault - he warned me!

I can say they definitely do not like the stuff, though. I have a much
easier time with the Petrodex, and that's the same finger-in-the-mouth
routine.

On a related note, are there any particular dangers to ferret bites,
other than the obvious? The tip of my finger is now swollen and a bit
painful. Bear bit through a toe when we first got him (he has learned
better now), but my toe didn't react like this.

Thanks!
