What about Paddington Bear?  I acquired a little "found" boy ferret a couple
of years ago through the FML, and I named him Paddington Bear, for precisely
that reason.  He's a very healthy, happy boy who looks like a husky in his
winter coat this year, btw!

[Moderator's note: Since I'm chatty tonight: Ela announced Paddington's
adoption in FML 1326 on Mon, 25 Sep 1995, should you wish to read all about
it.  And thanks for the card, Ela! :-)   BIG]
