TOMO 24,880 Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 Get yourself a "jif" lemon squezy from your local supermarket and as she goes to bite you just squeze a little drop into her mouth, it won't hurt her at all but she will definitely think twice about biting again!Have used this little trick on many occasions on serial biters like yours and it works for me. It just leaves them wondering what the hell happened and a nasty taste in the mouth. Regards FT serial biters, well it was found in a cornflakes box :11: Quote Link to post

Good on you matey its good to see someone try with an animal rather than just give up On another note though I think your step brother shouldnt be allowed to have animals. Anyone who lets any animal live in that type of condition is the lowest of the low :realmad: . I hope when you get your ferret back into condition that you will not let him anywhere near them!!

You have to ask yourself why is the ferret vicious? By the sounds of it this guy you knew was of the "old School", the type that thought a ferret had to be vicious to be any good as a worker. (What complete and utter crap.) Ferrets are by nature friendly, and a vicious ferret has been made that way by the person who has brought it up. I have a dozen ferrets and not one of them is vicious. Is that because I have been lucky? I think not, it's because they have been brought up correctly, which means plenty of human contact and handling, good living conditions and good feeding!!!! We are in the 21st century, I think your views should be there too!!!!! Quote Link to post

Guest Frank Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 My ferrets are great with me and my son, as we handle them daily. But, a mate came round the other day and they nearly took his finger off They dont like stragers it seems, but if a lot of folks handle them, they seem fine. As i live in a isolated place, its just me and my son who handle them, they dont get to see anyone else. Frank. Quote Link to post
