Last night I was writing a term paper for my history class.  I was sitting
tilted on the chair with back legs up.  I then put the chair all the way
on the floor, the chair is like a rocking chair, I did not even notice the
poor little ferret, Reece, Underneath.  All of a sudden Scooter comes to me
and starts going wild.  I was not sure what was up with him so I pushed him
away.  After about 30 seconds of this behavior I feel my chair shudder.  I
look underneath and to my horror, Reece is squished underneath it looking
very dead, his tounge was hanging out of his mouth.  Needless to say, I got
my ass off the chair and threw it across the room, Reece ran away under the
couch after he was freed from the chair.
 
I am not sure if I squished any of his internal organs.  This happened like
12 hours ago and reece is acting fine, mabe a little slow though.  He is
pooping, eating, and peeing fine.  His breaths are a little quick while he
was sleeping though.  BUt this morning he was still alive and acting fine.
I am still scared that I may of hurt him internally.  If he is acting fine,
but a little slow, and seems okay after this long do you think he will be
okay?  It is a miracle that he survive the chair, I am 150lbs 5'7"
therefore, I am not exactly light.  I thank the lord for not taking my baby
away.
 
I have no idea what I would do without him....
