Hi all!  This is Mindy in West Virginia with my four fuzzbutts - Whiskers,
Tiny, Cocoa and Tigger.  I haven't written in awhile, but read the FML
daily.  I now have a computer at home so I am at this new address.
 
I too have a shy ferret named Tigger.  He is also a very big boy.  I don't
think anyone else but me understands Tigger and I am glad he is with me.
He is scared of everything and you are lucky if you catch him to love on
him.  I only get to love on him when he just wakes up or if I'm lucky to
catch him.  He hates loud noises and I have often thought he might be a
little deaf.  His nicknames are Mr. T and T-Bird.  I named him Tigger
because when I brought him home he bounced all over.  You see, no one
wanted him in the pet store because he was so big and was full grown.  No
one wanted his cage mate, Cocoa, either, but, now they are here and they
have more love in the world than anyone knows.  So Victoria, be glad of
your shy guy and just think, if you didn't have him, maybe no one else
would understand him and be patient with him.  He is lucky to have a loving
home with you.
