Two year ago, I 'discovered' ferrets. I did the same thing as Meghan. I read as much as I could about ferrets, and started buyng ferret things, a cage, and saving up money to buy my first baby fuzzy. I don't make a lot of money, but rest assured, my two fur children get the very best of care. I am totally committed to their health and well-being. Personal sacrifices are made, if necessary, to take care of their needs- something any good parent would do. I am sure that Meghan feels the same way. As for "...similar pleas...", I don't recall that she ever asked for anything other than encouragement and emotional support. P.S. Lets keep this a happy story! My two cents worth...:-) Mitzy and the fuzzgang [Posted in FML issue 2457]
