First and foremost, for those I haven't been able to write too, and all with sick or lost fur kids, my heart goes out to you. On the tasting things: I remember Wolfy writing about tasting ferretone. When I picked myself up off the floor from laughing I knew she was great! I have tasted Bitter Apple. Why, you may ask. Well, when younger I was a terrible nail biter, and believe me, this will cure you!!!!! You all know the ferret yogurt treats that are sold? Well, Wolfy and I shared a container at Las Vegas! See, we got to reading the ingredients and it sounded more like candy than ferret treats, and it's true! We think there's far more sugar than necessary there. And then poor Randy, she's sitting at the dais with Wolfy, Wolfy leans over and offers her some! I almost fell out of my chair laughing at the look on Randy's face! On ferrets driving: I read where a lot of the older NASCAR drivers started out driving farm trucks, etc. So, is NASCAR racing in the offing for Switch the Kit and Lilly? Can you see what their sponsorship would have to be? Sun Maid Raisins, Totally Ferret, etc. My daughter had this old Barbie jeep that I'd put the ferrets in, and push them around. They loved it. Some drove themselves in it, and then they got under it, trying to 'work' on it. I kept asking if they were going to have little tool belts, because no butt crack could show on them. We bought those little colored Easter eggs for the fuzzies, the size that just fits in their paws. Well, the two newest little ones, Mugwort and Hermoine, have made it into hockey games. You hear this noise and there they are with one, ripping around the kitchen, the living room, the landing, trying to score goals with them. My oldest great-nephew was hysterical laughing at them the other day. Our UHL team here is the Fort Wayne Komets, and the mascot is Icy D. Eagle. One night Icy had a little zamboni (remote controlled) on the ice, with an Icy beanie in it. He was driving it into the referees that were doing half time shows, and I told my husband I wanted that! I could just see the ferrets in that, driving around. Then of course thinking of Switch and Lilly in the tractor, Alexandra, how do you think your girls would do driving a zamboni????
