i am a first time ferret owner and have only had my kit (Arrisotle) for about five weaks,when we first picked him up from breader (whos parents were both working ferrets) he was lovely and snuggled up to me and feell asleep in my arms,lovely...then a few weaks after he has turned into a monster.

we have him out alot and is constantly socialised.he gets excited very quickly as all ferrets do and pounces at peoples faces and bites and doesnt let go.we have tried everyhting from apple spray to scruff and snuggle meathod to time out and a little flick on the nose...nothing is working,everytime he gets more excited and pounces even more thinking its a game he has lots of toys and is ed enough.

we have noo idea why he continues to bite..he is a lovelt little ferret untill he gets over excited.everyone in the houses hands are bitten to streads and he bites through skin reguarlly.we have no idea what to do anymore please someone helppp!!!

he is amazing and i wouldnt change him for the world just wish he would stop pouncing and making my hands drip with blood!!

thanks
Heather
