Hi, Everyone.  I'm looking for a loving permanent home, so I thought I would
place a personal ad in this FML.
 
I was recently rescued from an animal shelter where I spent two lonely
weeks.  I am so happy to be out and staying with a foster mom that I dance
and dook and dook and dance until she falls asleep on the couch from
exhaustion.  Unfortunately, the old grouchy ferret that owns her apartment
is not kindly to me, so I need a nice place to go.
 
You'll like me, I promise.  I am the most beautiful ferret the lady has ever
seen.  I am under two years old with two fancy blue dots in my ear, sable
with a gorgeous snow white undercoat, luscious charcoal/silver guard hairs,
and deep velvet black points.  My face is sparkling white with the most
perfectly shaped eyemask ever.  My teeth are beautiful and my pads and pink,
moist, and soft.  I am short and fluffy and smell like flowers (the lady
says so and she isn't exagerating; I had a nice bath last night and have
been primping ever since).
 
I'm the Fabio of ferrets; I'm more beautiful than that Italian skier.
 
For those of you who are not swayed by only a pretty face, I have a few
other statistics about myself.  I have hit the little box 100% of the time
since coming to the new house.  I eat Totally Ferret like a champ (some
people would say this is why I'm so beautiful).  I like to chase the big
plastic ball with the bell in it and when I've exhausted myself from running
around, I even ask to be held.  I lick toes fresh out of the bathtub and
I've parceled out a few of my kisses, but I'm saving the rest for my new
family.
 
Please contact my foster mom right away.  She's going on a trip next week
and would like for me to have a safe place before then.  (I heard her
talking to the grouchy landlord ferret last night about me staying forever,
but he said "NO DOOKIN' WAY".)
 
Call Foster Mom Lori at (301) 530-7038 (w) or (301) 896-0968 (h) and
leave a message either place.  She'll get back to you.  If you e-mail
her, she won't get back to you until Monday.

Sweet George again.  I forgot to say that I'm staying in the Washington DC
metro area.
