Not sure if my American friends are into April Fool's jokes?? It's pretty big in Canada - anyway my DH sent me this article, which I totally believed - since we've had ferrets it seems totally plausible.

Anyway, April Fool's jokes are only supposed to go till noon - so he told me that's what it was. I can't believe I totally fell for it. It's really cool. :P

Well, that article may be a joke, but I've heard of it being done before. Remote control cars have been used too.

They don't pull the cable itself. They pull a leader string which is later tied to the cable and pulled.
