Dear Ferret Folks- Well, Ping is He had one doozy of a Thanksgiving. When nobody was paying much attention, my *other* favourite three year old nephew, RJ, was hanging around the ferret cage. I remember telling him "Don't stick your fingers in there, Puma bites!" (She does. Just ask Renee Downs.) Anyway, RJ pulled his hand away quickly. *He* believed me when I said Puma bites. (Unlike some people.) Hmmm. Never trust a three year old. Anyway, I didn't think about it again for a few hours. Then I passed very close to the cage, and saw....something. Something that certainly didn't belong, over where RJ had been poking at the cage. It was a well-chewed, essentially devoured turkey drumstick bone. The little curled end was sticking out from beneath Ping, who was sleeping on top of the rest of the bone. I have no idea how much he actually ate, but he certainly looked as drowsy and bloated as the rest of us. Alexandra in MA (Ping is He: "Psssst! Kid! Next time, cranberry, too!") [Posted in FML 5436]
