Dear Dayna and all those other folks here in the dreaded land of California, that are working towards making our babies ....FREE! Keep up the good work. We would send our help but it's not possible right now. Our Daddy is out of work and our Mama is recouperating from a dangerous and critical back surgery. That's why we've been so quiet. Mama is barely able to play with us unless we come up high where she can reach us. She still can't sit down or bend, because her brace gets in the way. Poor Mama. If we get the chance we will try our best to help. Mama does still contribute to the CDFA, which is a little bit of help. We just wish we could do more. Maybe later. We did help educate the closest pet shop near us. They started carrying Ferret things months ago. Yea! They didn't realize there were so many ferrets in California until our Mama took in a newsletter that stated there are well over 500,000. Not too shabby of an amount for being in prison, right? Goes to show you the folks of California are gutsy! We'll never give up until we win! Anyway, we heard the news of how much ground we are gaining towards the legalization of all of us, but there are a few dangerous fish and game people still hanging around close so we never get to go outside. Oh well, no problem as there's plenty of good things to get into inside. It brings us to tears when we hear of one of our cousins being snatched. We have missed everyone a bunch. Mama could have used the extra laughs but had her computer shut down for over a month (while in the hospital). But things are improving every day. And to our favorite digest leader...BIG......{{{{Hugs for keeping this alive!}}}} Cheers, chuckles and dooks from the crew.............Stinkey (the leader and chief in charge), Brandy (always running cause there's never enough time), Rascal (the lover Boy), Tashe (the better than thou cat), Lobo (the Guard Wolf) ... and their Mama too!
