My brats have a great new toy - it's an old widow screen that has the PLASTIC screening in it. I washed it up ad I leared it against the wall at a steep angle.....the brats LOVE to run up the screen, release their grip with their toenails and slide back down backwards. All 4 of my kids (three 5-year-olds and one 4-year-old ) love this game. It's hysterical to watch all four of them trying to ru up the screen at the same time. The best part is that I ca hear them playing this game when I'm not around. WARNING - WARNING - WARNING - If you try this game..... 1. BE 200% CERTAIN that your ferrets can NEVER gain access to functional screens that are in windows!!!! This game may teach ferrets to try even harder access windows. 2. Never use screes that have a metal screening mesh 3. ALWAYS check your ferret's nails (front and back feet) before and after playing this game. I trim my ferret's nails regularly and check their nails daily when the screen is in their room. (Long nails can tear/break/bleed if ot properly trimmed before playing this game! Clea the screen with soap and water before using the screen for a toy - you'll want to remove dirt, toxic residue from sprays, etc. Have fun! -jennifer

OK, I had to zip-tie the screen to the cage since the brats were carrying it around the room -jennifer

You bet they did. the screen is large - about 4 feet tall.... I heard them bashing something around in the room. I went in to check on them, and my two "toy stashers" had the scree in their mouths...the only problem is each ferret had a differet idea on where the screen should belong -jennifer
