I know this sounds weird and I am not much of one to believe in the weird but I had similar experiences after Romeo passed. I would see him by his toy box or running through the house. Maybe it was just because I expected to see him there. Maybe it was because I wanted so much to actually see him there. Maybe something else? Every so often I would smell the ferret smell I associated with him and not the others. I dunno... a lil spooky if you ask me. Ferret Names: Romeo and Juliet, Sparky, Sweety, Chocolat' Moose, Ripple D' S'more, Count Chocula (AKA chomper AKA Psycho AKA ouch you bit my ***) I remember there was a list of ferret names but haven't seen it in years. That would be a tough thing to maintain. Dave [Posted in FML issue 4158]
