Hi everyone, I hope that you'll all send prayers or good thoughts whatever
Molly's way on Thursday.  She's the little stray I called about that the
people who found her had been feeding carrots and grapes.  She is going
in for an exploratory.  Either she is unspayed or has an adrenal tumor.
Either way the dr. tells me her chances are not good.  Her heart is very
slow and she is not in the best of health.  I needed longer to fatten her
up but the dr. tells me we can't wait any longer.  Molly is a real
sweetheart and obviously did not have a good life before.  She doesn't know
about litter boxes, good food, plastic bags, ferretone, or any of the other
obvious ferret pleasures.  My others have all adopted her and love her.
They've even shared their sleep sacks (thanks again Moxie) and they are
very protective of them ordinarily.  I hope so much that this is a success
and she can have long years of roaming the house and learning all the
things I thought ferrets just knew by instinct.
 
Also a friend got me the cutest stuffed animal.  It's made by Douglas toys
under the National Wildlife Fed. Ranger Rick division and is a black footed
ferret.  It's just beautiful and about life sized.
