Hello everyone, hope all is well with you and all your fuzzy's!!! Well I just got back from the Kissimmee Ferret show and I have to say that I'm a little disapointed to say the least!!!! First of all the show in it self was enjoyable and I had a good time there. I believe it was a little bit unfair though. First of all anyone who sits on the Judges panel or is affiliated with the show in anyway should NOT be allowed to have any family members participate with there Ferrets in the contest!!!! The girl who won the 5 first place trophys for her ferrets had family members on the Judges panel and the person who was in charge of the show also shouldn't have been allowed to participate in the contest. I've talked to many of the participants about this and they feel the exact same way, I didn't know about this at first but it was brought to my attention by several people during the show. My Fuzzy won 5th place in the Black Sable catagory and I was very pleased with this, as there were alot of beautiful black sables there and I knew that my boy wouldn't win first place due to this fact. But I feel that it was UNFAIR to other people who travled a long distance to participate in this show!!!! Now that I made my feelings clear, I just want to say to the woman who was so drunk at the show that you should be ashamed of the way you treated your ferret Rocko or Rocket which ever you named her, If you didn't drop your Ferret at least 5 times on the floor from your shoulders then you didn,t drop her once!!!! If thats the way you take care of her at home then give her up to someone who really cares. Why should she suffer because of you!!!!! Well thats all folks [Posted in FML issue 2601]
