Hi Everyone(Again) Well the furies have finally done it. Given me enough gray fright hairs to start a collection. The Ferret Collective tried to make good their escape but their attempts were foiled, thanks to Jasmine. As the plot begins the innocent but mischievous looking critters were frolicking about the house while mom cleans room and cage. That's when the idea formed. When mom came out of the room to look for said convicts only three out of seven could be found lurking around different places. Mom thought this was a game they were playing. Mom was wrong. You see it all started with the innocent looking step stool dad built so they could smell the fresh air. Upon looking at one of our living room windows, the face of a ferret was staring back. Only problem-the ferret body was hanging on the outside while the other three (already outside) encouraged her to make good on the attempt. Reaction-Mom screams for Dad and the chase begins. First thought-squeaky toy they come to that. Oh one came to it all. Twister (the ring leader) came from under the steps, ran up the stairs, bit mom on finger, and ran back down the stairs, and bottled brushed from end to end. Mom squeaked again and this time he was caught. In the meantime, Dad saw a white blur going around the side of the house and the chase continued. Tigger was apprehended. But the ever elusive wolf managed to keep us running until he was corralled in the back yard by two guards. (Bailey and Echo the dogs). Upon returning all to the house, they were immediately put back in jail, while mom and dad rearranged their nervous system. They are no longer allowed to watch old movie re-runs. Anyone else care to share a gray haired moment. Kathy and the Ferrets of Alcatraz [Posted in FML issue 2985]
