The Story of James Robinson

Hey Big T,

First off – disregard what “Jets Knicks” says… There has never been a child killed by a ferret!

She is doing the same thing that young pups and kittens do. She is honing her “WAR” skills. You are her sparing partner – she is just playing, but attempting to develop strategies as the “dominator” of you.

I have tried the Sour Apple spray with my kits – when they were young – they would lick the thing/body part that I sprayed and then look at me like “You are soo stuuupid! We don’t mind things that taste weird – hell, we smell like your feet!” I also tried the water bottle/squirt gun… All I got were wet ferts!

Cat Squeak toys or Soft Balls on elastic work really well! (Don’t buy anything where she can chew off a rubber or synthetic part – this will block her kidney). You can buy the tubes and the expensive toys that are suggested, but I have found that mine are just as interested in the package that the toy came in as they are in the toy. Get some tubes from federal express (free) or some different sized boxes. Plastic grocery bags are good! Toys on strings are good too. Mine also like cheap blankets and towels that they can burrow through.

Mostly, as was suggested, Get her a friend! She really wants someone to do her mock battles with! They will fight much more furiously than other animals do — the only time you should break it up is when you hear a loud pitched squeal! You will get to notice the difference in their “hisses”, “chatter”, “challenges” and “squeals”.
