Remember the Peanuts gang and happiness is . . . .
 
Happiness is . . .
        Trying to figure out who's who in a pile of sleeping ferrets!
 
Happiness is . . .
        A squatting ferret in the litterbox!
 
Happiness is . . .
        100% hit rate in the litterbox.
 
Happiness is . . .
        Dookin', panting, and playing ferrets!
 
FERRET MATH  (as told by a former one ferret owner)
 
Once there was a ferret, and Whiskers was his name,
He lived by himself, and was content all the same.
One day his Mom went into town and bought him a surprise,
A little Tiny sister, who could barely open her eyes.
He played with her and told her, I am the head of this house,
She let him drag her around, and was quiet as a mouse.
They lived together the two of them, for just about a year,
When all of the sudden, two brothers did appear.
They looked a lot like Whiskers, except that one was brown,
His name was Cocoa and he had freckles all around.
The other guy was Tigger, and bounce around could he,
They all got along together, and played so happily.
The moral of this story all ferret owners know,
Ferret math can strike you, and your bank balance will be low!
