Hi Friends!

It's ME BLOSSOM and I am still beautiful shaved belly and all --- and
I am destined to be FAMOUS I just know it!

We had a great trip to the Boston Children's Museum. Shelter Mom & Dad,
Susan T and Greg all took us kids for the day Saturday Oct. 18. We
missed having Auntie Sklya there this year with her kids... but she IS
out helping Travis with the Black Footed Cousins so we ought to have
some good stories to hear when she gets back.

Shortly after we got there at the Boston Childrens Museum, ... some
big folks with TV cameras showed up. They put the cameras right down
into our new play yard (Thank You Auntie Sandra) and started taking
pictures. We all had a GRAND TIME. Destiny, Elric, Barn-y and me... all
looking into , at , tasting the camera what a blast. JJ arrived late
and since he only likes to be with JJ since Austin passed away- he kind
of missed the cameras.

Then come to find out the cameras and their people are the PBS camera
crew who were there to film a show / segments for Matt & Brill's visit
to BCM. Wowee! So we may be delighting a lot of young folks in PBS land
in the future! T hen when the director found out we were rescued kids
there to teach others he decided to do a whole segment with us. So
they got shelter Mom to talk with the show starts Britt & Matt about
ferrets, what we are, why we would or would not make a good pet etc. It
was fun they was dropping wires down Mum's shirt and hooking her up and
she was somewhat unprepared for this. She did not especially dress for
the TV cameras - oh dear!

It was a great time and those camera lights are very warm. Elric, who
has gained a huge amount of weight for winter, had to recline and
submit to lots of ear rubbing while Mum held him all the time they
were interviewing her. I hope folks still think I am the prettiest....
Mom said I fidget too much and have too much energy since I came back
form the vets so I made the most of the cameras from the play yard. The
BCM folks will try to let us know when the segment airs... this will be
fun maybe Mom will let us watch ourselves on TV!

Mean while we have a limited number of Ferrets USA 2009 Annual
magazines. Mom has put several on ebay to help raise funds for winter
heating. you can check them out at:

Now I have to go and priss myself up  so I will look gorgeous for the
next camera!
