There has been so much hurt and bad news on the list lately (My heart goes out to those humans left behind, and those hurt fuzzies out there) I figured that I would add some good news to the list! I havn't posted since one of my fuzzies, Yin, passed over the bridge. Well, since then, ferret math has hit hard! VERY hard! :) We went to look at a cage since we had offered to take in some shelter kids, and ended up finding a rejected tramatized kit. We took him home, and Yang warmed up to him right away and started teaching him how to be a ferret! We named him Zorro. In the next couple of weeks we went into the pet store, and there was a whole cage full of about 20 kits, and then a small glass cage with two three month old ferrets in it.... well... you can imagine the odds of those two selling, so... well... we took them home! One male and one female. We named the male Thor (strongest one out of the lot to that point) and the female Dizzy (cause when we got her home, she was so excited she jumped and dooked around till she made herself dizzy and fell over, then did it all over again) *giggle* That brought our little home business up to 4, and we thought 4 is enough.... well, then along came my friend. My friend had a friend who had a ferret, but he couldn'tkeep it anymore due to an apartment with a no pet rule, and a new room mate coming in that wanted to enforce the rule! Well, we did it, we gave in... and along came Pogo to join the business (He was named pogo by his former human cause of how he likes to sit on his back legs and jump up and down like a pogo stick!). So, now we have 5 wonderful dooking fuzzies! You know, with all this change and adding, we were worried about them getting to know and like each other, but they took to each other great! In fact, since Pogo is over a year, and the others range from 3 months to 6 months, Pogo has been teaching them a thing or two about leaps and wardances! You should see all of them together! A group of misfits all come together to make one happy home! Dooks! Song & her happy dookers!
