Oddly enough, I've had this conversation before, Frank. It may have just been spit. But they're ruminants (is that the right word) and so there is cud they've brought back up, in their spit. It's not just a saliva issue.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
And Teddy was quite feisty in his younger days.
He even got Hubs in the eye once. Don't remember the year, but it was the day of the ACC Men's Basketball Tournament Final.

ferrets were illegal to keep in MA until fairly recently (along with commercial tattoo parlors)
Well, they might be commercial tattoo parlors, but they're hardly domesticated.
Yikes, Robin and Jesse! I thought it wasn't usually a very serious thing. I've been scratched up by our cats several times in the past week and am always pretty lax about cleaning them out properly.
