Hi All! Jerimiah the famous Jr ferret here at Ferret Wise! Well the kid Sterling is raising a LOTS of commotion over here-- he seems to be doin' so good since the vet visit and shot-- maybe I could get one of those shots and they would be bustling about me too? Bear is doing well on his meds, but is getting slower & slower each day-- it is raining for 2 more days and I thinks he just misses his walks-- but I am glad he has to stay in- 'cause I haven't been out yet! There wa a bunch of folks around this weekend-- what a riot. Some gal got me so excited I chomped on shelter MOM REAL good-- but I didn't mean to- It kind of just happened. Mom said it was because I wasn't used to the excitement-- and she will have to make sure they don''t get me all riled up again-- whatever that means-- I was running and racing and chasing -- etc. Phew, was that fun-- Moms hand i doing better and she still hugs me and all-- I guess I kind of lost track of things in the busy crowd! The shelter folks are getting a postcard mailing ready bout Ferretstock-- if anyone wants information on Ferretstock-- NOW is the time to email the folks and let them know! They have over 60 auction items listed so far with some more items promised in this week! Wow there is some really nice stuff-- IF I find a way I might help myself to a few of those things! :) The prize bags for all the ferrets who win contests are filling a HUGE box-- guess there will be lots of winner this year-- hmmm, which do I want to win?? Next week the folks are coming to build posters, signs etc and there is supposed to be a big banner / poster for everyone to sign in on! This ought to be one neat show! They have added a second trophy for the ferret furthest travelled to the event-- so there will be a runner up trophy -- this is real neat -- I want to see what ferrets look like from far away-- some shelter kid a while ago said they have slanty eyes??? Guess I will find out. I still think that I am the cutest ferret-- but I guess they still plan on looking at photos-- that prize box for the cutest ferret photo is really getting big. They put treats, polar fleece blankie, hammocks tent, toys, toys and more stuff- and they said it isn't full enough yet-- some kid is going to be able to fill their own shelter with all this stuff! Oh yeah I am supposed to be invitin'' any ferret kids who want to enter the photo contest to send ( or have your folks send) your picture $3 donation (for each photo) and a self addressed stamped envelope for return to: Ferret Wise - Cutest Ferret, PO Box 561, Marlborough, NH 03455-0561 The winning pic gets published on the shelter web site too! You get to be really famous-- maybe almost as famous as me! Hope to see you all at the event! Should be really neat I want to watch the soap makers too! And listen to that dead head music, and get a reiki massage, and have a ferret tarot reading by the friend of Miss Sugar the famous "Ferretscope" gal, and chow on the free TF food etc. folks with questions should email the shelter folks at the above address!
