This is for all the shelter folks out there.Yes,you are appreciated.
 
You can tell you're dealing with a shelter operator if :
 
they greet you at the door bent over,picking up a fresh present.
 
there is duck soup under the fingernails.
 
they have a total lack of wearable socks.
 
there are strange substances found in their hair,sometimes pink,but in a
variety of colors and flavors.
 
drinks are served in a cup with a lid and a straw.
 
some of the ice cubes in the freezer are brown in color.
 
you say you're hungry,and they offer you a brown semi liquid substance in
a small dish.
 
they roll you up in a blanket and stick a syringe in your mouth,and all you
wanted was two tylenol.
 
there are a lot of band-aids on their ankles and hands.
 
they are on a first name basis with the local ferret vet.
 
their visas are maxed out,and they're wearing worn jeans.
 
I know,some of these apply to ferret owners too,but in smaller
amounts.Let's face it,we're all fuzzy slaves.
