Wow. It's been a super crazy week at the shelter. It all started on Monday with Scarlet coming back into the shelter's care. She had a blockage and her owner couldn't afford the surgery. mommie & auntie Trish watched the surgery on Tuesday and to their shock, the vet removed a HUGE rubber BOOB from her intestines! Scarlet is back at the shelter and doing well. On Friday, the shelter took in Quigley. He was found hiding under a car in North York. He was covered in motor oil and very thin. He's now washed and resting comfortably at the shelter. mommie is feeding him goo and although he fought her at first, he now seems to like it. On Saturday, the shelter took in Islay (pronounced Isle - ah) . She was separated from her older brother to be brought to the shelter. this made mommie SOOOOO mad! Her owner was going away to school and could only take one ferret with her so she gave up Islay. mommie sat on the floor with Islay on her lap and Islay licked mommie's boob. Auntie Bonnie said it was because Scarlet had told her that boobs taste good, but mommie says it's cuz she had accidentally dropped some Tone on her shirt! Also on Saturday, the shelter took in a little girl named Nibbles. Her mommie has been through hell and couldn't keep her anymore. Nibbles has adrenal disease and needs surgery which her mom couldn't afford. You see, her mom's daddy just passed away. Nibbles is very scared of other ferrets and is sad at the shelter. mommie is hoping in the next few weeks, she can afford to have Nibbles' surgery done. Saturday also saw another kid from Oakville Humane Society come in. His name is Aiden and mommie thinks he's sooooooo cute. auntie Paige picked him up and she KNEW as soon as she saw him that mommie would just kiss the crap outta him! she was right! Aiden is a baby and big. mommie just loves the big dumb boy ferts! Our little nose nipper Dazzle strikes again! This time it wasn't a volunteer's or my mommie's nose she bit. Our poor little Logan thought he would sniff at Dazzle through the cage and she grabbed his nose and wouldn't let go!!! So, Razzle & Dazzle have moved houses to a top floor where Dazzle can't nose nip any other ferrets while they are out playing. The shelter is just about at capacity. so much so that many cages have had to be altered to be able to house more ferrets. There are over 10 run groups now and this will not make any of the volunteers happy! please cross your fingers that either mommie wins the lottery or we have a miraculous amount of adoptions!
