Last week when I had Champ to the vet a little old couple was there with there chocolate colored poodle. It just had worts removed...poor litle thing. Anyways the little old man says to his wife "Look isn't he cut?", referring to champ. So I replied "Well Thank you." So he then says to me "Is that a hamster?" I replied "No sir he's a ferret" So he then says to me "Well he's cute anyways!" I've never had anyone ask me if any of my ferrets were hamsters before.....but since they were an older couple I understood. Really I'm surprised they could still even drive as they could not hear very well....but you lose one thing other senses make up for them! Never underestimate a senior they are bound to surprise you. Really it was a cute expierence... Kelly Ferret mum to 4. [Posted in FML issue 2226]
