HI folks! It's your buddy Jerimiah here- the handsomest ferret in the shelter at Ferret Wise! (Don't mind me I love myself everyday LOL) Finally Mom got all the newsletters in the mail last week- she was having a real hard time getting everything done all by herself. Shelter Dad helped her one night stuffing it into envelopes. Seems that now Mom has to drive the great gramma from the nursing home to appts she has little time left after caring for us... I think she should get her wish for longer days! Well things are getting or rather staying pretty busy here -- Mom took all 5 lupron kids here at the main shelter to the vets last week Curly, Disney, Gravy, Annabelle & Marie - but we had to do some scurrying as the shelter van A/C unit stopped working -- so the kids were in trouble on the warm days for riding! It will have to wait to get fixed Mom says.. she added it to the "to do" list! Once that was all over & done.. we move on to Thursday -- 3 of the kids at St Gregory's house ( the OTHER Ferret Wise shelter location) had surgeries for mast cell removals. Phoenix and Anna are in good shape today, but they got a bit of a surprise when they arrived at Dr George's office. Next week Hamish & Crackers have some more unusual lumps that need fixing... so Mom has got lots of stuff up on ebay and in her ebay store to try and help with all the vet bills. The following week the 5 kids at St Gregory's go in for their monthly luprons-- we sure do keep her running a LOT! If you are in the mood for something new you might want to check out her neat ferret art prints which you can frame easy... or some of the other stuff listed below.
