Early morning finds Muldoone yawning and stretching and stretching and yawing some more in his hammy. Relishing one last long delicious stretch, he knew he had to get himself up and head to the Bridge. Mully had a new fuzzy to welcome; Sammy was due to arrive that morning. Mully arrives at the Bridge and takes his appointed place to watch and wait. As the flashing of light subsides he hears the sound of ferret feets on their way across the planks of the Bridge. Muldoone steps forward to welcome the new commer and is astonished at his beautiful thick light color sable fur. "Welcomes to da Bwidge, I be Mr. Muldoone, da officialist Bwidge gweeter". The newcomer sits down to have a long look around. "So dis be da Bwidge dat the hoomin-beans talk about. I don't 'member much bout how I gots here, my mom Angie takes me to see da doc and den I wakes up here. Wooks at all my new furs, I not be bare no mores!!! Dats wight, Sammy, when we gets here, we bes young 'gain, we not bes sick no mores". With a sad look on his face Sammy begins to speak. "Mr. Muldoones, I be sads dat I hab to comes here, I misses my mom back on earf. I habs two buds dat I miss back on earf too, deire names be Ozzie and Cujo and annodder of my buds Mz. Shelby comes here a few days afore me. But I would wike to finds my odder buds dat alweady bes here Sammy tells Mully, I missted dem a wot. Sure kid Mully tells the new commer, tells me deir names and we finds dem. Well Sammy begins, deir names be Shelby, Jigs, Slim, Nacho, and Luna and I weally weally wants to finds dem. All of a sudden Muldoone hears the sound of ferrets giggling but when he turns to look, instead he sees plastic balls and Easter eggs rolling out from under a bush. What is up with that Mully is wondering to himself, bushes not giggles and eberyone knows dat balls and eggs not grows on twees. Muldoone sees a blurr of fur and hears ferret voices squealing out SAMMY!!! Next there was a flurry of activity, everyone trying to sniff Sammy and Sammy trying to sniff everyone. "Sammy squeals Shelby, is it weally yous?!! SHELBY Sammy squeals back at her, guys, I habe missted you wots!!! The other members of the little group begin to fire questions at Sammy, how mom be back on earf they wanted to know, how Ozzie and Cujo, tells us eberyting Sammy"!! Muldoone knew to get himself out of the way of this happy celebrating crew of fuzzies. It was very obvious Sammy was happy to see his old buddies and his buddies were equally happy to see them. Wetts dem habe deir fun and den watter Sammy's buds can shows him awound. It be a sads time when a fuzzy habe to weave da earf fam-ilee but dey cans be happy when dey gets here and no more pains. As Mully turned to head to the shimmering pond to check on his own family back on earth he could hear everyone squealing with delight, dooking, and things like "I weally weally misted you Sammy".
