So, let's see: we had two chocolates mellow mentions, two chocolates
excitable mentions, one mitts mellow mention, one mitts excitable mention,
one black sables excitable mention, hmmmm...
 
Carob is greatly enjoyed by our dashing furballs.
 
The ferret having vision problems sounds like 'Chopper the Organic
Helicopter when she first had protein accumulate in her lenses.  She
learned to live around it quite easily, began to pay more attention to what
we were saying -- rather neat for a ferret who was always partly deaf (high
pitched sounds), and went on to live to be elderly before hypertrophic
cardiomyopathy finally took her.  If it's protein the ferret's eyes will
later look a little touch cloudy eventually but vision will be gone before
that.
