Hello! I just found this list from reccomendation of a friend... I live in California (hence the anon post if it worked right) and I have 3 furkids, soon to have 4. All are rescues, the first two from a bad situation and the next two from shelters. Eve and Sibyl, when I met them, were in a crappy little cage in a feed store, being sold. No one wanted them, since they would bite savagely anyone who came near, but I had to get them out of there. From what I was able to learn, they had had 3 different owners, and were somewhere between 3/4 years old. Next thing I know, I have two savage, scared ferrets, and no clue how to care for them (the guy selling them fed them TROUT FOOD.) They were both nameless, and they got their names bacuse one minute they could be sweet and loving, and the next minute be hanging off one of my body parts. They are sisters, twins almost (I currently am the only one whoc an tell them apart!) and now, 2 years after that fateful meeting, they are the sweetest loves that nip (not bite) very rarely. Since my two girls were older, I had never really experienced what a young ferret was like, so when we adopted Azrael, I wasnt quite prepared for the level of energy and sheer mischeviousness she was capable of. Our bedroom is ferret-proofed, but she is always pushing the envelope. Just a few days ago she figured out how to scale the bookshelf and get to the human treat jar on the top shelf--the 12 foot high top shelf. So, shes confined to a bell collar when out until I can figure out how she is getting up there. Azrael is 2, a silver mitt, and shes got an adorable fat pair of bloomers. Its an endless adventure trying to entertain her so she wont get into anything. The twins mostly sleep, and create incredible stashes under my bed. The fourth girl I have yet to meet--I had just signed onto this list and saw a post about a ferret up for adoption... so, anyway, those are my furkids. About me, I have a horde of other critters (mostly scaled). I am a student, studying to become a Licensed Veterinary Technician. I am married, 32, female, weird... you know the weird hair discussion? Well usually I have blue hair, but right now I am sitting here with yellow and pink hair... cheers, cobalt [Posted in FML issue 3360]
