HI Friends! It is ME Jerimijah , your very favorite ferret at Ferret Wuise SHelter. Boy have we got news! Mom can take the dirty laundry out and clean it in the road. It has been raining & raining out there! 11 inkches in one day/night and we are in a state of mergency? Hmmmm how different. Well I know we ferrets are just tasty fine but Mom is having problems getting things like chicken baby food, laundry done & paper towels the not so important stuff as ferret food you know. We a s'posed to not use much water for the time being to conserve Hahahaha.. NO clean shelter Yippee! AS long as the hill does not mud slide onto the side of the house she says we are all set! But Mom says it is always sumpin'! I think it is all them clouds fault for crying all over us and they say we got a break but more is coming through - right the middle to end of week. Fields and roads are all flooded out, great for the geeses they can set anywhere they want! The newspapers don't get delivered and Moms can't gets no where. But at least our house is dry right now. They is 'vacuating families in the next town over adn the road is washed ouyt with mudslides - with the river coming over the road too! Dad is having to drive folks all the other way to Manchester ( 56 miles) to gets cars to rent at the big airport today. There is no cars anywhere around here they is all under water! Can you believe that? You don't have to be in the Hurricane to be in tough shape this year! What are the ferret gods thinking anyway? Aunt Judy at St Gregory''s House is battling the flu bug she says Mom must stay AWAY! the kids there are fine they have food & water and are safe in the cages- she is feeling a little better today and meds are being done but she in bed for now. Cindy reports that the military ferrets, Boo-Boo is doing good post op for gall bladder stone removal- he is eating & pooping well had a lupron shot on Thurs., Casper is still off and the vet is thinking maybe he has lympho in addition to his tummy ulcers but he is doing okay right now, Both Emily and Dargo are doing well right now. The teeny boy is finally starting to grow here at the shelter Mom says that is very good so as soon as the water lets up she will schedule him back at the vets for more xrays and discuss shots, etc. Things are still getting done no matter what the crazy weather does to us! LOL. Well WHEN MOM CAN get out to buy chicken & turkey babyfood for the sicklier kids and laundry soap ( she really needs some but no stores she can get to) she is likely to need some funds specially since WHEN the washer gets here ( Tues if not flooded out) there will be a lots of dirty stuff to wash & wash... To help get all these supplies she has put some special ebay items up-- won't you take a look at them?
