Hi all!!!
 
It is the handsomest ferret face around -- Your good ol' buddy Jerimiah
FerretWise here!
 
Wow have we been busy at the shgelter-- first of all 4 of the youngsters
left for a new home to be Maniacs!  The reports are that they are doing
their very best to keep the humans on their toes- Marshall has a love for
remote controls and is causing some havoc there-- :)
 
Sox, the fine lady she is - enjoys her afternoon tea via the teabag and
has earned the reputation of being a resident tea bag thief.  Both Tanner
& Neko are spending time hopping in and out of boxes and the like in
their new home - they took all my fine teaching ability to heart!  Great
kids.
 
Here at the shelter - Mom is doing her best to help Hospice Mom Judy &
the kids and us here too..  Disney has had to start on pred for her
insulinoma and she cannot tolerate the young boys still here -- so, she
now runs exclusively with Biscuit & Gravy the mellower kids .. it must
be tough to be a grandma ferret!  Geesh!
 
The window curtains have been changed to the wind block fleece to keep
the drafties off of us in winter.  We had a few cold nights but the past
2 have been splendid.  We are getting ready for the cold of winter and
eating the folks here out of house & home,.  however there is always roo
for more treats - hint hint!
 
We had a great family visit us in the shelter over the weekend.  A lady &
her family from Japan, Keiko, came to see the place and ask Mom lots of
questions about the work here.  That was very interesting she writes for
a pet magazine in Japan where they have ferrets too.  Disney got to meet
some of her children and they took pictures of all of us too!  I hope I
get to be one famous ferret!  I wonder how they spell Jerimiah in
Japanese!
 
The folks have started cleaning out the annex and setting things up for
the Holiday open house - they have to start earlier every year.  Before
that happens though, the next shelter newsletter has to be finished -- so
if you wanted to write to me you had better hurry and do that now!  Our
friend Sandra F.  is travelling up from PA next week to pick up goodies
that will be sold at the Ferret Wise booth at the Dec 6th AFA show in
York, PA .  I like Sandra - she always brings us stuff like cheerios etc.
When she comes in December she is gonna visit for a few days and play
with us !  Yippeee!
 
Mom has not been spending any time in the next door room since the music
died last week- she hopes she can find some music player real soon so she
can spend time drawing pretty pictures.  We like it when she is next
door- we get to listen to her music and sometimes we get to explore that
room too!  Tomorrow Mom is taking harry to teach folks all about ferrets
at the Greater Derry Humane meeting - That lucky guy!  She is going to
show a shelter slide show and have folks meet & hold Harry during a Q&A.
I think that sounds like fun!  Maybe next time I can go too!
 
There are some really neat items up on ebay to help us stay warm this
winter... in the group Mom has put together some inexpensive gift sets
for holiday shopping and has even listed mystery sleepers and such...
a great way to support us here at the shelter and give special ferrets
some really neat stuff!

We all hope you folks will keep Dec 6th free on your calendar and plan to
visit here for the Holiday Open house Saturday Dec 6 11-3 PM .  It sure
would be great to meet you al l- and maybe you will sneak me a goody???
