About a month ago I posted an inquiry to help my vet find a couple of ferrets for her 10 year old daughter for Christmas. Well, the next thing I know she acquired 2 from a shelter who had just seized all the animals at someone's house (who had been warned in the past). Unfortunately, one of them bites. I went over to the clinic after school a few days to work with them. The day before Thanksgiving the doc decided it wasn't a good match for her daughter, so I got to adopt them! I introduced the two new girls to my four and they all get along great! (whew!). The little girl is a dark silver mitt. She has the sweetest face that looks like she got into a chimney and has soot smudged on her. She also has beautiful eyes. Her name is Fluffles. The other girl, Cranberry, is a cinnamon (she's the biter) and looks as though someone took scissors to her tail. Other than that, she is beautiful. I am so glad that I am able to take in these two sweethearts. They are having a ball with all the toys, tubes and warm blankies. I just sit and laugh at them all playing together. I do have to be careful, though. Cranberry and Fluffles will crawl up my pantlegs and bite my leg when I am trying to clean the bottom of their cage! I am hopelessly in love with ferrets!
