Hi all! Well - I'm the proud new mommy of a 6-week (well - that's what the lady said, but boy she sure looks small!) old sable female kit. She's a doll for sure. My other two fuzzies seem to be adapting to her pretty well. They get a bit rough with her sometimes (well - I think they are anyway) - and she fusses at them. It could be frustration as Duncan (the male) lays on her and pins her down. She's also a VERY demanding little one. She makes the strangest little noise when I'm not quick enough to let her out of her cage - or when I'm walking around the house and I don't stop to play with her every time I walk by her. It's probably a normal ferret kit sound - but this is my first baby. The others were orphans I rescued as adults. Here's the funny story: I walk into the living room to notice my 19 year old calico cat "Kelly" staring intently into the center of the "cat track ball" toy that I bought for her a long time ago and she has been *much* too dignified to bother with up to now. Well - when I peek over into it - who do I see? Binky (new baby) INSIDE the track pushing the ball around the circle with her nose! I thought I would DIE laughing. This is now one of her favorite games. Imagine her future frustration when she grows a bit - and can't get in there anymore.... Do I have the only *living* cat track ball toy? ;-> Have a fuzzy day! Cheryl, Kelly, Punkin, Ferris, Duncan and BINKY! -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cheryl Cato /| Computing & Information Services \'o.O' Unix Systems Administration Texas A&M University =(___)= 013C Teague College Station, TX 77843-3142 U Phone (409)845-6908 +---------------------------- ACK!
