Well, I'm happy. I went to Chicago and brought my girls back with me this past weekend. But they are sad. Its always hard when all four of our ferrets are together for extended periods of time and then separated but this time was especially rough. Bell and Baby have spent the past two days sleeping in the closet. They come out to use the litter box and look for Mr. Y and Silver. My mom says that Y and Silver are doing the same things back home. It makes us feel like bad mommies because we separate them. I hung a picture of Y and Silver where Bell and Baby can see it but it doesn't cheer them up. We let them talk on the phone but they are still sad. Last night, Bell ventured out of the closet long enough to give me a dirty look and then she went back to sleep. What's a mom to do? (BTW, someone sent me a letter (Les or Len???) but my computer crashed before I could finish reading it. Please write again) Lisa [Posted in FML issue 1371]
