My ferrets have taught me that no matter how urgent the business is that you have to do after work, you must FIRST rush home, cuddle fuzzies and clean up after them. Otherwise your home will be deluged with visitors at a time when it is far from pristine. Conversely, if you do ignore your after-work chores, come straight home and clean up after 27 fur-babies have been on the rampage in the house and yard all day, no visitors will come.
