Ah, Alex, obviously you did NOT get the ferret saucer message.  Yes,
those flying saucers ferrets use (Now, what cat would think of THAT?
Cat's worship pillows in the sun; they'd never worship a food saucer
the way a dog can!  Cat space vehicles look like big fluffy couches.
Dog space vehicles look like -- you've got -- plates, bowls, saucers!
Don't believe me?  Then check out past issues of
http://comics.com/comics/monty/index.html which is as good as the Flat
Earth stuff!.  Well, Lady, ferrets also use saucers!  DOGS, Alex, DOGS!)
 
Okay, why is it important that dogs and ferrets use saucers whereas cats
have hyperdrive hover-couches?  Well, once upon a time the earth was
flat.  Yep.  That was before monsters were washed over the side in Noah's
flood.  The early ferrets came and saw the Earth.  Ah, a perfect place to
teach a new slave race of humans!  But, there was one problem; it looked
too much like their saucers.  Now, did I remember to mention that their
saucers are organic, self-replicating, and intelligent?  Obviously,
leaving their saucer population circling cloaked around a saucer shaped
Earth at their beck and call would cause an inferiority complex in
saucers over millions of years.  Can't have that!
 
So, the ferrets got two large bungee cords (Ever notice how they like
toys suspended from elastic on a pole?  It's innate.) Then they attached
the bungee cords to the North and South Pole.  How did they do that, you
ask?  It wasn't easy.  Everything they tried kept failing till they hit
on using snow machines (And you thought people invented those!) to stick
ice to both the middle of the upside and the middle of the down side.
Then they and their saucers pulled and with a giant Swooocchh-plop the
Earth pulled out into its current modified spheroid -- too round would
have insulted the ferret sense of chaos.
 
There now you know the truth!  So, THERE, Alex!

I ask you, would any vet know THIS?
