Greetings all....
Well, its happened again.  We go out shopping for litter and litter boxes
for our fur kids and kitties, and drop our human children off at a friend's
house....sneak back to the pet store and buy a 4 month old PetCo (actually
treated quite well, and appears well loved...clean large cage with good
toys, fresh food and water, etc......) ferret (MF).  He's predominantly a
sable with a raccoon face.  He's absolutely adorable....I picked him up
and cuddled with him and he gave lots of ferret kisses to me and my hubby.
We took him home, named him Pepper (thought about "sage" but liked pepper
better) and are now introducing him to the other four fuzzies and two
kitties.  I'm not entirely sure how we are going to introduce or EXPLAIN
his presence to our children.  Figure we'll tell the kids to let the
fuzzies out of their house for their evening play time, and let them
discover Pepper on their own.  Heheheheh.  All of this after about four
weeks ago buying a MF cinnamon girl fuzzy that was 7 weeks old from a
different pet store.  I just can't resist.  Is there a 12 step program for
ferret addiction?
