Hi All -Jerimiah here, Phew another busy weekend here at Ferret Wise - more visitors-- and I DIDN'T bite the shelter Mom! I am getting pretty good huh? Well this week the folks painted lots of pretty ferrets on boards to make direction signs and such for Ferretstock Celebration. We got some posters in the mail that folks is putting up too! Then they did some other stuff too -- like taking our cozy bedding out of the cage and putting some soapy smellin stuff in -- sigh! All the kids is doing pretty good here these days. Bear is getting a little better- think he finally knows Rocky can't come back now. Sterling had his Winstrol shot on Thursday again and he is eating better-- but he sure is a skinny guy. The volunteer folks watched him walk and howled about how skinny he is. Mom said his hair looks like cow - licks cause he is so small. Hmmmm Never seen a cow lick- wonder what that looks like? Then Sterling got a visitor, someone who wants him to get better so they can take him home. Shelter Mom hopes this happens -- she said Sterling would be better off in a real home. What is a REAL home? I guess I will have to ask........ More folks have been calling about the Ferretstock event- so plans are in the works now for folks to be here at the event fixing good food for everyone. Wonder if they will have ferret treats? There is a local motel that will let ferrets visit- so shelter Mom can give folks that information IF they email her. I know they are really busy sewing up stuff like tie dye hammie beds and ferret bath towels for folks to buy. Heck I hope some get left over so I can roll in them! I heard the folks talking a bout some special Ferretstock Hammies which will be on ebay the day of the event- so folks who can't come can bid and still have the special ferret beds-- that sounds like fun to me!!! Until then they got some of the usual or pretty hammie things on ebay this week. And next week are going to have some tee shirt things. If anyone wants to see the things on ebay they can check out these ferret hammies listed below which help us all here. And maybe we will get a new supply of treats -- the kids here haven't had any for a while -- since I climbed the shelf and ate them all. The other kids are still pretty mad at me for that! -- So, buy some neat hammies - I will plead with shelter Mom to buy more treats -- then maybe the kids won't chase me around so much :) Jerimiah! the Jr Mascot at Ferret Wise Shelter http://www.dartmouth.edu/~crassi/index.html current auctions which help support education & rehabilitation at Ferret Wise are: New Black Cats & Pumpkins flat Ferret Hammock ends 8/24 http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=409613202 Rodeo Cowboy Flat Ferret Hammock ends 8/24 http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=412832069 Purple Passion Deluxe top Ferret Sleeper ends 8/25 http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=413495240 Tie Dye "WWJD" top Ferret Sleeper ends 8/25 http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=413765572 New Celestial top Ferret Sleeper ends 8/25 http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=413765572 Sweet Dreams top Ferret Sleeper ends 8/26 http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=411506358 Kalideoscope Butterflies top Ferret Sleeper ends 8/27 http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=412701795 Hershey's Hideaway top Ferret Sleeper ends 8/29 http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=414290207 [Posted in FML issue 3150]
