Hello fellow FML'ers..and condolences to all the angeled, lost, or hurt
furkids...
 
I have had one heck of a time the last few months.  I'm sorry about not
thanking anyone for emailing me on any problems I posted about.  I've had
a lot happen in the last couple months or so.  My mom had a heart attack
a little before Easter so there goes the cards for the exchange..  I
never did get them sent, but I will at the next exchange.  And that's not
all.  Last week I had my first emergency vet trip.  Seiko fell from the
top of his cage to the bottom and I thought he had broken his leg,
because when I touched it he screamed, but it turned out he had a broken
finger and one of the nails ended up getting shoved back into his paw :/
So they pulled the nail out..it was fairly bloody, but all went well.
See, I didn't know at the time, so I'm rushing, calling the vet, crying
and hoping to God nothing is wrong with him!  And all it turns out to be
is a simple toe problem.  So I'm happy that nothing else was wrong.  Of
course, accidents always happen on the weekends in the middle of the
night..
 
Well enough about that already. :)
 
My next question is about ferret shows, I'm planning on going to the
Ferret Buckeye Bash in OH, but is that the closest one to me?  I live in
southern Indiana, close to Louisville, KY, and there's nothing ferrety
going on around here ever.  The closest things I ever know of are in OH
or Chicago.  Is there anything ever going on in Indianapolis or within a
100 mile span of me?  If not, is there a way for shows to be sponsored
around here or something?
 
And about ferret clubs... I posted a while back about wanting to set up a
club (not a shelter!), and I thought about it over and over and I can't
seem to find a place to actually have the meetings at.  I've called local
pet shops and only one has a meeting room, but for some reason they won't
let me use it for meetings.  Libraries don't allow pets, and I'm hoping
for somewhere that will allow animals.  Any ideas?  If I could just find
somewhere, then I could hopefully get one started up.
 
Think I've said enough.. :)
