Something funny :) The day before yesterday I went into the monkey room and sat down approx 2 feet from the door which has plexiglass. One on my furkids, the one I consider who has the most happy-go-lucky attitude everyday decided to climb around my neck. I should have known he had a plan. Because he has never climbed around my neck before. Only the girls usually do it to preen my hair. So, next thing I know I heard a thump. It reminded me of the cartoons where the character hits the wall in the air and slides down. I couldn't help but laugh. So, he didn't try again that day. Yesterday, I did the same thing, sat approx 2 feet from the door. While, playing with some furkids, (it was probably in the ferret manual of How to get over the plexiglass, Plan B, distract mommie) I hadn't noticed it was him around my neck. The next thing I know he is hanging from the plexiglass pulling himself up. I grabbed him and put him back on the floor. Once he touched the floor he ran around the room in a victorious manner and then back to me :). Next round came with a little girl named Sassy, Jackie from the Dook Nook knows her well. I noticed she was running furkid out of the rice box which is large enough to hold alot of them. As to say, I am Queen of the RiceBox today. I mean she would not let one paw touch the box. We'll I decided it's on. Mommie against Queen Sassy. I got on my knees and the rounds of rice throwing, ferret rolling, mommie jumping began, 10 minutes later the Rice Box had a new Queen. It wasn't a easy overthrow, she put up a good fight. All in all she was a good sport. We shared ferret kisses and went on to pick on fights with the others:).
