Zero had to go to TED today, to get his distemper shot. The appointment was during hubby's and my lunch break, so we decided to grab some fast food on the way. It'd be quicker and easier. NOT! What on earth was I thinking?? Zero went nuts!! The second that bag was in the car, Zero was all over the place (warp 10, engage). He attacked the straw in Jeff's drink, and would not let go. Thus began the battle for the straw, man against beast. Pulling, hissing, squeeking and biting occured (not a pretty sight). The straw lost...ripped to shreds. Zero wasn't interested in what I was drinking. He's not a diet soda kind a' guy. Once he lost interest in the straw, it was time to pursue ketchup packages, french fries, and hamburgers. The little spitfire did not quit, until all food was consumed (by us. Zero managed to get very little). No small feat. So for all of you ferret folks out there, heed this warning. Never attempt to eat fast food in a vehicle in the presence of a food shark! :) Andrea Garza & The Crew Research Technician University of Arizana Dept. of Microbiology and Immunology [log in to unmask] [Posted in FML issue 1849]
