First off; the "ferret only clinic" happened and boy did it happen! There were humans and fur kids all over this place! It was one hot hot day. Our poor favorite doc. Miss Mary, Miss Pat and Miss Kim sat in that hot all day just to take care of the fur kids that came to see them. Thanks you guys you are great! We had lots of humans here some from far away places. Mr. Harry from Ma. Mr. David from NJ and our far away critter craft the Baker Bunch from LI. Then of coarse there were all the shelter friends that made this whole thing happen. Mum says it could not happen without all the people that come to help. Miss Mary B and Miss Joy did an auction with really cool stuffs it made the shelter lots of money.

Miss Cathy D. Miss Susann and Mr. George My far away mom and dad came to fix it on Memorial Day weekend, just for me and clinic day. Suzie Q here: Hey you! Missy; would you want to back up a few weeks and tell folks what happened in May? I mean I know this is the June news but you have failed to cover any May news that was not in last month's news. Possum Here: who are you and what are you doing in my news? Suzie Q here: I am Suzie Q. I live two cages up from you on the same wall. I have to listen to you jump up and down trying to get attention when humans are here. I get to watch humans come in to ask where you are and could they please pick you up and hold you. Cough cough, if they only knew the real you! I get to listen to that dratted talking toy you have in your hammock. Is that enough information for you? I am in the news because mum told me I could help; I am in the news because YOU are failing to cover all the news! Possum Here: MUUUUUUUMMMMM HELLLLP! I did cover some May news; I told what we did on Memorial Day weekend. Heeelllp! That is May news! I am being taken over by a mouthy; little know it all brat! Suzie Q here: I am not! Possum Here: Are too! Mum here: Stop it you two! Possum Here: Hump, fine so here is some MORE May news. Mum went to Pet walk in skinny- Atlas or some place like that. Miss Kristie, Miss Cathy D went too they helped at the Pet walk. Miss Cathy drove mum and all her stuffs. Miss Christina and Mr. Ben came by to visit while we were there Miss Susann T. MY far away mom had a table down the way from mum for E.A.R.S. http://www.uan.org/ears. Miss Stacie came to check on us fur kids, move us around, and clean some cages so mum only had to do meds when she got home. Mum left early and got home late. That day. Suzie Q here: okay I need to jump in here to get this news moving! One could fall asleep with the news coming from Possum. Miss Joy and Miss Mary B came to visit us on mother's day, they brought gift baskets for the raffle table for clinic day, + they wanted to love on their far away fur kids. Mr. Tim B. Gizmo's far away dad called mum to say happy mother's day on that day too. Possum Here: hey you stop that, mum says we can not be mean to each other and you are being mean to me! Suzie Q here: Am Not! Go away. Brad W. and his mom Amy W. brought stuff for us for Brad's birthday! They brought lots and lots of stuff. See Brad's mom had a birthday party for him, he is 9 yrs old, he told everybody that wanted to bring a gift to bring something for this shelter! Is that not way cool? A 9 yr old that thinks to get presents for us fur kids instead of himself. That is one awesome kid! We must be pretty special! Oh yeah and mum hurted her hand the Friday be for the holiday weekend. She tore the tendon off her right knuckle on her middle finger. So her hand is all tied up. She can type with some of the remaining fingers but writing snail mail is very hard for her. She is allowing us to send email thank you's until her hand is better. The Doctor told her 6 to 8 weeks. Possum Here: Sooo Miss "think you are special" butt in; are you done telling all the important news? I mean take over why don't you? Mind if I do MY news now? You do not need to answer that I am just going to do more news! Miss Kristie came to help mum move cages and change some things around, that was a two man job. Miss Donna D came to do the yard to get it ready for clinic day; she also helped mum pack up cages that had come in over the winter that were sitting in the garage getting dirty. We had Lots and lots of campers, Thompson kids and Bowmen kids were here for a week. Now for some really sad news! Mum is getting to be a chunky monkey! Know why? It is all the Bakers fault! You know the Baker Bunch? Well they came up for clinic. Suzie Q here: Hey Missy you already covered that! DUH! How about some news we do not know about? How about not telling people mum is getting chunky. That is NOT news! Possum Here: Will you go find something to do? This has not been covered! This is new news! Now go.... Do something.....anything except butting in here! Anyway sooo the baker bunch pulled in on Friday afternoon before mum went back to work, Mr Harry was already here. Anyway Baker Bunch all came for clinic to see our favorite Doc. Then after clinic they stayed for a few days. See they parked the critter craft up in the barn yard. They had their own space to just hang out. Anyway Sunday night they and mum went to this place in victor that makes gluten free pizza. Mum drove so Bakers did not have to move the critter craft. That place was so awesome. They had all kinds of pizza mum could eat. Bakers are gluten free humans too. So what was left over from the pizza mum brought home, she was going to put the rest in the freezer for later only it was so good she ate it for breakfast, lunch and then dinner the next day. Poor poor Chunky monkey mum she has no will power! This month's news is extra long, because next months news is going to cover the symposium. See mum is going to be leaving here in a couple of weeks to go to Portland Oregon. When she gets back she will give me a report so I can give it all to you.. Suzie Q here: Enough already. Man you have the ability to put humans to sleep. It is time to close this news. Watch for next month I will be reporting on the IFC symposium for mum when she gets back. Possum Here: you will not! Suzie Q here: Will too! Until next month.......
