July 2007 Master LargoĆs News Possum Senior Reporter Ziggy Reporter of a higher order Andy watching from Rainbow Bridge Possum Here: OKAY!!! Hold it right there!! I was not told I had to dress up to be in the wedding! Just whose big idea was the dress up? I mean yeah; the gown and flowers got here, they are gorgeous, BUT now you want me to wear this stuff? You have got to be out of your gourd! I am already wearing a fur coat why in the world would I wear a dress over that coat? Suzie Q here: Well I guess I need to do the news, Possum is off on one of her tangents. The weekend after clinic, Miss Eileen and family brought Sir Biscuit and Sir Gravy to play in the play yard. The boys came from our shelter. The boys family came to help fix the play yard the weekend before; they love to come play in the play yard. Then on Sunday June 10th 3 new kids came in from Buffalo, they were living in a neglect situation so Heather got them out of there and brought them here for mum to make better. Miss Kristie, Miss Rikki came to help that same day. Kristie swept; then mum mopped floors, Rikki mixed food and just generally helped mum get things done. Mum locked up the house, went to plop down early after the new fur kids got here. Mum heard a noise down stairs so she went to find out what was making that noise. Mum found Miss Frieda from Bolivar here to say hi. Bolivar is far away from Naples so mum was pretty surprised to find her at our door. Waving at you Miss Frieda. Possum Here: Hey! Hey! You stop that! This is my news you can't start the news! I start the news! I am going to tell some news. News you know nothing about! Suzie Q here: What do you mean I can't start the news? I did start the news! All you wanted to do is complain about dressing up. If you want to do the news; stop your complaining and do your part of the news! Oh! oh when we posted the link for the pictures last month; you know the ones with all the clinic pictures on it? We found out 1,336 humans looked at our clinic pictures! Holy Moly! Here it is again case you missed it! http://community.webshots.com/album/559345664CJaVRv Soon as mum figures out how to get the pictures off the camera mums 2 legged furless kid and his Lisa gaved her for Christmas; she will send symposium pictures to Mr. Harry so he can get them on there for you to look at too. Mr. Harry does that for mum. Possum Here: my turn! So I told you all last month that I would fill you in on the symposium when mum got home! Mum is home! She is finally back to being our mum! She came home sooo tired. The very first day mum was in Portland Miss Lynne and mr. Ross camed all the way from Washington state to meet my mum. I wanted to go but mum said I could not fly on the air plane. I think that is a stupid rule. Miss Lynne and Mr. Ross spent a good part of the day with mum. They even took her to the grocery store so she could get some juice. Mum says that she has so many wonderful shelter friends all over the country! We are so blessed. Mum got a present from miss Lynne while she was there. Miss lynne made mum a ferret stained glass piece. That picture will be on the webshots site too. I will give you lots of news. Hee hee; I will be reporting the news on the symposium (not Suzie Q) because I know what was going on all weekend long. See Miss Isabella was getting phone calls from her mom, Miss April; Miss Issy was text messaging me all weekend long keeping me informed on what was happening as well as what my mum was up too. Psst please! Please! Don't tell Miss April cause Miss Issy is not suppose to be texting anyone, she got grounded the last time she did. Okay First Miss Issy told me all about the new products that Performance food is making; that is where her mom works. Anyway they have some really good stuffs so you need to check it out!!! Here is their phone number 877-545-5462 give Miss April a call, tell her you want some of that new stuff she has there. Mum learned lots, ate lots (there was lots of food mum could eat) she got to see humans she has never met and got to see humans she has seen at other functions. so mum spent time catching up on things from the last time they saw each other, and got to know the new ones that were there. Everyone worked really hard to make sure everyone that came had a good time and learned lots. Miss Renee told everyone they had to turn off their cell phone; mum went to do that and found hers was on silent. Mum had to go see Mr. Big to get it off silent cause she did not know how to fix it. Thanks Mr. Big! Miss Renee tooks mums store stuff to Portland for mum cause Mum had to go fly like a bird to get there. Suzie Q here: She did not! mum took an air plane to get there. Possum Here: Yeah right but she was still up in the air like a bird! Miss Sue B and Mr. Neil met mum at the Chicago airport, they went to have dinner cause there was lots of time mum had to wait to get on the other plane. Hey suzz You happy now? They even met mum there on the way home too. There were lots of really smart ferret doc's that did presentations; even my far away mom did a presentation on Ferrets in disasters. Then the good man that is working to save our cousins the black footed ferret was there too. There were 3 information filled days. If you have never been to a I.F.C. symposium you have got to go check it out! Mum and Miss Danee went out to dinner with my far away mom and dad. Mum and Danee, roomed together. That was lots of fun mum and Miss Dannee talked and talked through the night. Gee maybe that is why mum was so tired when she got home. There was a dinner and celebrity auction to benefit IFC and S.O.S. that was lots of fun. Mum even got into the bidding. Suzie Q here: Okay my turn. On July 21 and 22 the ferret club is having a huge yard sale to benefit us kids here at the shelter. Miss Kristie is hosting it at her house; there are some really cool collector items that have been donated to us to make money. We need a new roof, and Miss Kristie is determined to get us one. (her words not mine) She says it is going to get fixed or else. I am not sure what "or else" means but I do know that when it rains we get mighty wet. Mum had strong like bull Trevor put blue things on our roof to keep it from leaking but we need more blue things to do that. Here is the club address if you want to know more about the sale or you have thing to donate for the sale. http://ferretloversuny.org/ Possum Here: Okay it is time to close this news. We will catch you up on things next month. Suzie Q here: no it is not! I still have things to tell. Mum is doing a summer run so she is back to working the big yellow thingy. She was going to take the summer off but we eat too much for her to do that. Okay now it is time to close. Suzie Q here: Until next month....... Possum Here: well don't you think you are smart? Okay until next month....
