It's always a horrible feeling when you can't locate one of your ferrets. That happened to my husband and me last night after we spent the day thoroughly cleaning the house. Part of the cleaning process involved removing the chest of drawers from our bedroom so we could do some repairs on it. That meant that our little ones lost one of their primary sleeping spots. In the evening, we did one of our routine nose counts. Delta and Ginger had taken refuge in the top level of their cage (which is always open so they are free to go in or out). But Pepper, we couldn't find anywhere! We searched the house high and low. I even went so far as to look in the linen closet, which was sitting cracked open, and to pull out all of the sheets and towels in the lower shelves. Just as I was giving up on that idea, I happened to look up. I saw the cutest little teddy bear face peering down at me from the top shelf of the closet. Pepper was sooo cozy up there nestled among the freshly washed sheets, and she couldn't see what all the fuss was about. We, of course, had to run and get our camera! Dooks to all, Julie [Posted in FML issue 3550]
