Hi everyone, I hope that you'll all send prayers or good thoughts whatever Molly's way on Thursday. She's the little stray I called about that the people who found her had been feeding carrots and grapes. She is going in for an exploratory. Either she is unspayed or has an adrenal tumor. Either way the dr. tells me her chances are not good. Her heart is very slow and she is not in the best of health. I needed longer to fatten her up but the dr. tells me we can't wait any longer. Molly is a real sweetheart and obviously did not have a good life before. She doesn't know about litter boxes, good food, plastic bags, ferretone, or any of the other obvious ferret pleasures. My others have all adopted her and love her. They've even shared their sleep sacks (thanks again Moxie) and they are very protective of them ordinarily. I hope so much that this is a success and she can have long years of roaming the house and learning all the things I thought ferrets just knew by instinct. Also a friend got me the cutest stuffed animal. It's made by Douglas toys under the National Wildlife Fed. Ranger Rick division and is a black footed ferret. It's just beautiful and about life sized.
