Prayers to all of those out there with lost, ill, and/or angeled fuzzbutts. Regarding the question about if I'd get more ferrets after mine have crossed, I'm in a really interesting position. My 3 are all less than 2 years old and they're healthy. Why's that interesting? Well, I live in an apartment with a no pets policy, actually, it says no animals, but they never say anything about the fish tank. We got caught. They said that either the ferrets go, or we'd be facing eviction. (Got this message on Valentines Day, how's that for considerate?) Anyway, the kids are currently being fostered by their Aunt Tina over in Ohio. So, my fiance and I have had a 5 month picture of what life would be without fuzzies. Our lease is up in July, and yes, we are moving. (It's a long story on how I got stuck in a no-pet apartment.) And yes, we are looking for a place that will allow pets. Just last night, we were sitting around playing a game on my computer. There was a brush at my ankle, and I immediately thought that one of the boys was there. I consider the position interesting, because I can see what life would be like without ferrets, without having actually lost them. I've found that three is my limit. I've got allergies, and any more than that, I think would have me constantly sickly. We haven't had to deal with illness and surgery, yet. After the wedding, we'll be putting money aside for just that purpose. It's difficult being without fuzzies, and i can't see my life without furkids in it. I miss the scamper of little feet, and the begging for treats, and and and.... but that's just me.
