Hi, my name is Paul, and this is my first post to the FML, which I've been
enjoying greatly for the past month.
A brief intro: I'm not a ferret owner myself -- yet. My Significant Other
has two furkids, though (plus a collie and Rottweiler who wouldn't dream of
being rough with their little fuzzy siblings), by the name of Al & Peggy.
Al's an albino with one eye (We never did figure out what damaged the other
one -- he's doing just fine) and Peggy's a dark-eyed white. They're both
coming up on 8 years old, and are as healthy as they can be -- and
certainly typical ornery carpet sharks! I'd have to do some serious
rearranging of my house before I'd want to adopt my own fuzzies, but Al &
Peggy -- and FML -- are going a long way in convincing me to become a Daddy
of my own. Just a matter of time.
At any rate, the main reason I'm posting was to comment on Ilena's
suggestion on picking up some miniature sleeping bags for the furkids --
this is a great idea! It got me to thinking about something similar: I can
remember as a kid that department stores used to have small replicas of
camping tents -- with zippered entrance flaps, windows with rain flaps,
support tubing, the whole nine yards -- for display. Wouldn't these be
good for ferrets as well? All you'd have to do is tie the doors open. I
don't know if they still have these things or not (then again I haven't
shopped for camping equipment lately). Just a thought.
