I feel as though it is my birthday most days since ferrets have come into my life because 1. They do something to surprise me almost every single day. 2. Time flies by with ferrets in my blood. 3. I age most quickly when they do something that scares or concerns me. I am already getting grey hairs. In one day, I discovered that my T.V. channel changer has 4 buttons eaten off of it ----------although it is made of plastic!!!!. Little has pooped on my newly painted wall. Sunny got up on a table and tipped over my pop on the floor I had just washed. I just came back from Bible Study and there is a bag of litter lying on its side with litter all over the floor I have washed twice in one day. Someone-probably Sunny-got in the garbage and took out cherry pits. The pits are now in another room with white carpeting. They are all over the carpeting that now has cherry stains on it. God knows if anyone has swallowed any. And so it goes: A typical birthday in the life of one with ferrets: excitement and surprises!! Lisette [Posted in FML issue 3115]
