Hi Ya'll, Well, I finally succumbed to the extremely pitiful looks I was getting and let the gang of 16 out of their room for the day. It was a comedy of errors. As you recall, I am in shuffling mode due to my back. Well, tonight, I have a upholstered chair on its back, shredded toilet paper and still missing Ferretone. Chair? It seems that after a year of having this chair and a half, the ferrets figured out how to get inside of it. Here I am sitting in it with my head leaned back, when I hear distinct animal scratching coming from inside the chair back!! I cautiously get up, not wanting to catch fuzzies in springs, and turn the chair up and pull out 6 ferrets!!! Since I am in no shape to ferret proof it right now, it stays in that position, so they can't get back in. Such an avant garde decorating scheme. I hear crashes in the master toilet and hobble in to find no suspects, shredded toilet paper and decorative items on the floor. I have my theories, but no proof. LOL!! Have slowly been trimming toe nails the old fashioned way, scruffing and cutting. I am not winning friends and influencing people that way. After the gang of 16 put themselves back up into their room (yes, they do that folks), I let out the DEW gang. They proceeded to run amok for a couple of hours, since they had been caged most of the day. Nicky killed the cotton throw in the living room repeatedly and then jumped on Ollie. They chased and yelled at each other for quite some time. Pookie begged for raisins and climbed behind the washer and dryer to make sure everything was fine then came back out to kick some butt. That is her forte after all. I am glad I have lots of help to move my stuff in Houston, I may have to confine myself to giving orders only!! Sounds good anyway!!
