'Twas the night before Easter
when all through the apartment
not a creature was stirring
well...except the cat and the ferret
My husband and I
were asleep for the night
While Psycho and Seymour
enjoyed a good fight,
When from down the stairs
there arose such a crashing,
I jumped out of bed
to see what they were smashing,
when what on my wondering
eyes should befall
but the great Easter Ferret
with baskets for all!
He was white as a ghost
from his head to his toes
with ruby red eyes
and a pink little nose!
He carried treat baskets
(the reason he came)
He sorted them out
as he called out each name.
"For Lucy, for Tribble, for Zaphod and Trillion,
for K-Nack, for Weasal, for Digger and Killian!"
And then Seymour said,
"Wow, isn't that dandy!
Get on with it buddy,
I want some candy!"
But Easter Ferret said,
"No, candy won't do!
I've got lots of raisins
and fertone for you!"
Seymour said, "yuck!
I hate all that crap!
Goodnight, Easter Ferret,
I'm takin' a nap."
Easter Ferret and Psycho
were left all alone.
Easter Ferret said, "Look out, cat,
I'm part of the FLO!"
He bit on his eyelids,
he nipped at his ears
til poor Psycho-kitty
went running in fear!
The ferret danced gaily
and dooked with delight.
He chuckled and scampered
off into the night.
We wish you an Easter
that's just filled with glee,
from one ticked off kitty,
sweet Seymour and me!

(just in case you're wondering, I chose the ferret names semi-randomly from
Anna's name list. Just because your ferrets name is there, does not mean
they will be visited by the Easter ferret, and it certainly doesn't mean
your ferret has been good all year, as I'm sure you know ;-) Who would've
thought I'd find a ferret whose name rhymed with "Trillion"?)
