This weekend I felt lazy. Around our house you sleep when the ferrets do
or you don't sleep at all. Nights are usually 4-6 hours long with a few
brief intermissions (i.e. breaking up fusses). Sunday I packed the 3 bad
boys into the 2 1/2 level cage and layed down for a nap. Five hours later
I awoke on my own. I glanced at the clock, glanced again in awe and shook
my grogginess away. How could I sleep 5 hours all at once? A miracle
indeed. :-) Shortly after I let the bad boys out and true to form they
started waking up the household, one at a time it seemed. They ended
back in the cage several times during the evening for time outs. Little
stinkers. Of course I wasn't able to sleep last night. I finally dozed
off at 4:30am and awoke to the 5:15am alarm. This morning everyone was
full of it. I had ferrets literally bouncing off the walls. When I took
my shower several showed up wanting in too. Well they had to wait till I
was done and I did some fancy stepping as I put them in and I got out. I
ended up with one attached to my sock and one to my pantleg when I got
dressed. Walking down the hallway I ended up with someone attached to my
calf and others playing ring around the feetsies. Getting out the door
was another story all in itself.
Ahhhh the joy of ferrets.
Warm hugs to all. tle
