greetings everyone! I hope all the fuzzies are dooking and playing well :) The cutest thing happened to me today. I was taking buckie outside on his leash and harness, and some kids came running over saying "It's a FERRET!!!" and a boy about 8 years old said "Is it true they'll steal anything silver?" of course i laughed, and i honestly didn't know the answer! I told him they'll take about anything they can get their little furry paws on.....(mojo likes taking my mom's BROOM! and hiding it underneath her bed.....). Tomorrow's the big vet visit for Noodles. I know she's been losing a lot of weight in the last two weeks, because i can start to feel the back of her spine through her almost bald body. She'll probably do blood work, ultrasound, exrays. etc..... I am so glad my dad is there for me when i need his help (he's offered to pay the vet bills) :) ...he told me to tell the vet to do whatever she can, as long as she can make noodles happier...she's only 1, so she has a whole life to look forward too, and I know she has a lot of spunk left in her :) please pray for noodles and keep her in your prayers. thank you!
