Kipling the hunter!
Wow. We just had what was easily the most surprising play session with the ferrets ever!
On our way home, we decided to drop by the pet store and buy five feeder fish. We had read online about offering feeder fish as enrichment and raw food.
When we got home, we put them in the bath tub, but the ferrets were not interested at all. So instead, we put the fish in a bowl and put it in the middle of the room. The first surprise was when Kipling dunked his head into the water. The second surprise was him CATCHING a fish and pulling it out. Third surprise? Kipling eating its head, then going for another fish!
It took a while, but Twitch caught on too!
It was SO COOL. XD I took a bunch of photos and even got video of one of Kipling's catches. I'll definately post them later this week!
