Hi Friends, It's me Blossom, That Gorgeous gal with the dark shining eyes! I AM still the prettiest gal at Ferret Wise even IF they brought in a young contender! There is a new gal here her name is Destiny. She was returned to a MA pet shop only 2 weeks after purchase. She was angry and the store put her in the back room which made her madder still. She went to another shelter and then here boy- o boy by the time she got here she was RED! Mom has been working with her and she has good days then some not so good days but all in all she is an okay gal. I get to play with her sometimes. Our old boy Nestle is getting around but his eyesight is certainly not what it used to be. the new gal was teasing him for a week running by him and butting him then he would get lost looking for her. Boy was she surprised when he switched and put his nose to work he not only caught her but give her a nip on the ear... Momma says that will take a few days to get Destiny back into trust mode-- but it taught her a good lesson! Golly! She must have a big ferret head to take on the onery-est ferret ever was! In other news Our old boy Lucky FerretWise at St Gregory's hospice passed away last week and so did Biscuit here -- so many of our faces seem to disappear these days. I hope they is having one BIG party at Rainbow Bridge! HEY! Maybe they can help get us some warm Spring weather form where they are.. the fuel oil money is gone and Momma hears tell that we have a snowstorm on the way again! Oh Lordy.. it is fun dancing in the white stuff but we were 'specting some Spring flowers by now! Barn-y continues to do pretty good here on most days he has more energy than Koda/Elric which Momma says smells like burnt popcorn- a bad perfume. So she is upping the melatonin in his soup! The phone has been ringing a lot lately but Momma said it is good rings more shelter folks asking for information instead of ferrets needing a place to go. She is still working with a family who bought a sick ferret form a pet store and is trying to get it well. It had five nasty bacterial infections which are draining though it's eye... OH mY! Over Easter she got a call about a tiny & sick ferret in another NH pet shop so she directed the folks who saw it to the state vet and we here the state vet had an agent drop in to the store the firs thing this week. Shelter Dad quietly got a year older this week. Momma took him out for a dinner ( so she did not have to wash dishes!). The Keene Ferret Meetup is just a few days ahead (Sat April 21 at 3PM) we hope that you can make it to the meeting! Momma is hoping it will be warmer that day!
