The other day my fiancee and I had a family get together at our place. The fuzzies were kept in their cage in our bedroom with the AC on full blast, thereby muffling the noise and keeping them cool. A few relatives who hadn't seen our place were given a tour -- including the bedroom where our "kids" were sound asleep. Our little girl was curled up in her hammie and our boy was curled up in his bedding, not even a nose poking out as far as I could see. They don't get any more angelic than that! :) But, I received a few dirty looks when our non-ferret-knowledgeable (for lack of a better word) relatives took a peak at our little ones. I was/am deeply hurt. My fiancee says that their ignorance is their loss -- they'll never know the love and bouncy antics that come from owning a fuzzy. But I still feel bad. Am I over reacting? Has anyone else encountered such a situation? Thank you for listening... [RO] [Posted in FML issue 3520]
