'Twas the night before Easter when all through the apartment not a creature was stirring well...except the cat and the ferret My husband and I were asleep for the night While Psycho and Seymour enjoyed a good fight, When from down the stairs there arose such a crashing, I jumped out of bed to see what they were smashing, when what on my wondering eyes should befall but the great Easter Ferret with baskets for all! He was white as a ghost from his head to his toes with ruby red eyes and a pink little nose! He carried treat baskets (the reason he came) He sorted them out as he called out each name. "For Lucy, for Tribble, for Zaphod and Trillion, for K-Nack, for Weasal, for Digger and Killian!" And then Seymour said, "Wow, isn't that dandy! Get on with it buddy, I want some candy!" But Easter Ferret said, "No, candy won't do! I've got lots of raisins and fertone for you!" Seymour said, "yuck! I hate all that crap! Goodnight, Easter Ferret, I'm takin' a nap." Easter Ferret and Psycho were left all alone. Easter Ferret said, "Look out, cat, I'm part of the FLO!" He bit on his eyelids, he nipped at his ears til poor Psycho-kitty went running in fear! The ferret danced gaily and dooked with delight. He chuckled and scampered off into the night. We wish you an Easter that's just filled with glee, from one ticked off kitty, sweet Seymour and me! _____________________________________ (just in case you're wondering, I chose the ferret names semi-randomly from Anna's name list. Just because your ferrets name is there, does not mean they will be visited by the Easter ferret, and it certainly doesn't mean your ferret has been good all year, as I'm sure you know ;-) Who would've thought I'd find a ferret whose name rhymed with "Trillion"?) *********************************************************************** | your name here | | [log in to unmask] | *********************************************************************** [Posted in FML issue 1530]
