Augie likes wicker baskets to sleep in and in her youth, the taller the better-- more fun climbing up. Now (she's 8) shorter is better. She also likes to sleep in a dresser drawer-- tho' there is the danger of stashes and other 'gifts' left behind the drawer. On the other hand as spring has arrived in Seattle, she's taken up SUN BATHING. in a patch of wooly thyme in the yard. Now, don't flame me about ferrets and heat. Seattle is NOT Egypt. And 'spring' means the weeds are growning. Hmmm interesting thought, surely those ferrets domesticaated in Egypt all those centures ago must have done ok in the heat. No, there weren't any cars to stupidly leave them enclosed in, but there weren't any air conditioners either. Donna [Posted in FML issue 3017]
