Further Reinforcement in My Career as a Ferret Chef

This morning, 3 of the ferrets ate the Duck Soup out of the bowl or off a dish rather than the feeding syringe!! This is great news, as it means hopefully soon I'll be able to give them their own little dishes instead of sitting there in my apron getting food dripped on me and wasted.

I think the key has to be heating it up - they actually seem to come running when they smell that rather than run away. Cheeba actually lapped it up right out of the bowl, and Bonk and Mojo both ate it off the lid of the container. Mojo isn't a surprise, since he was doing that before, but Bonk seemed to fight the switch to the new soup, and there he was this morning just eating right off the plate I put out for Mojo. I guess this means I'm a better ferret cook than I thought. Either that or food that smells stinky is attractive to them - maybe a little of both!

I'll try and post some pics later of soup time.
