Thanks to the couple that shares their nifty outdoor movies with us of their exploits with their ferrets in nature. I loved the last one with he hot guy and the raft (and the beer, can't forget the refeshing beer). Lol. Sean and I were so inspire, we got Pharos's shots all updated. Then we brought him camping with us (at nights when its not too hot). Sean and I walked him to the river. He has always loved walking along the shore in the past. But this time, I splashed in the water and really showed it to him. He walked straight out into the water. Deeper. And deeper untill he was swimming. He paddled around for a few seconds, then swam back to us. I was floored. SuperTonks, he is truly Super Hero material! I'm going to send him to Shirley Hewitts for a holiday so he can swim with her ferrets in her fish ponds. LOL. Next, I told Sean that he should take him out on the raft like the lovely gentleman in the video. So he did! I have movies of Sean and Pharos on a big raft floating around a river! It will be a while before I share those because we are still camping this week. Anyway, I put the camera down and swam out to them. Then something even more remarkable happened. As I was hanging on the raft, Pharos walked to the edge and put his nose in the water. He pondered a bit and then leaped without fear into the water. We were in shock. He swam around and I scooped him up and put him back on the raft. Just as I was wondering if it was an accident, he ran to and clawed my shoulder up trying to leap over it back into the water. He had a leash on, I should have let him, but Sean looked a bit scared. Lol. We'll be taking that river rat out each night this week to enjoy polishing his fur on the wet rocks along the TN river and to splash around in the waves that lap up against them. Oh and we mustn't forget the raft trips. Oh, and the delicious beer! Not for Sean ... for ME! ps, Don't worry Alex, I will be donning my tin foil hat in honor of you and to bounce the nasties and ridiculous off my head. After all, I don't think the scrambled eggs which are my brains could handle anything more ... Wolfy [Posted in FML 6018]
