I just wanted to let everyone know that is a sad day in our home.  We have
two ferrets ( Bongo and Ruby) that we love.  Bongo is our little baby (8
months old).  Well, Monday afternoon was the last time we saw her.  She had
been playing with me that afternoon, but we did not see her the rest of the
night.  We didn't really think anything about it because they like to sleep
so long, so we just thought she was asleep.  Until Tuesday morning, when she
is usually up with my husband helping him get ready for work.  So, we looked
everywhere for her in the apartment, thinking she found a whole somewhere we
didn't know of before.  Well, it turned out that she is outside somewhere.
 We don't know how it happened.  Only one of us had been outside in that time
period, and it was when my husband came home and when we went down to the
pool.  We keep playing it in our head.  When she did it, why didn't we look
for her Monday night, how she got down the stairs, and where is she now!!!!
 We have looked for her on the grounds of our complex, talked to people,
handed out fliers, posted fliers near and around our complex, and notified
the local pound, the SPCA, and all the closest vets.  We are really scared
for her.  We pray every night that she is gone.  Does anybody have any other
suggestions on how we could locate her?  We love her and miss her terribly.
 Ruby misses her playmate and so do our cats.
