I got a new kit in June, so things are as crazy as they were last year, when
Joy was that age.


She was so cute! Is she more grown up now? Does she still love her
uncle Misty? I wrote my own interpretation of some of the events from
your movie:

LOL, Tak, I love your interpretation, great comments :-)
Ever since I got She-Ra, who's the same age as Joy, both of them made cat
hunting a real serious sport, so Misty (and the others) have become very
careful when those 2 ladies are around.....

ROFL! Reminds me of the antics of my old neighbor Rocky Ferret.

There was this one vignette that always stuck out in my mind-- Rocky's
slave had the front door open for moving some large furniture in and
out, and suddenly, Rocky came chugging out the front door (going
"whatwhatwhatwhat") and down the front steps, just like he was late
for an appointment or something. I was always fascinated with the way
he moved-- he would flow down the steps like water. The voice of
Rocky's slave was heard from inside: "WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING
YOU MANIAC?" and Rocky just without stopping, all in one motion,
u-turned and flowed, then chugged, right back into the house, going
"whatwhatwhat" all the time.

Oh how funny! Sounds like me making sure I have my shopping list when I go
to the store!



Rocky was a hoot and very sweet. He *was* making a break for freedom,
but he loved his Daddy so much that he could be distracted from
most naughtiness by the sound of Daddy's voice. Rocky always had to
drop whatever he was doing to see what Daddy was up to. I remember
seeing him do his little ferret dance on the porch when his Daddy came
home in the evening.

Well, it seems little Miss stray ferret is a girl of about 3 months old.
I went to the vets this evening to drop off some forms, and check on the
status of the stray ferret.

She was checked by the vet, she is in perfect health apart from being in
season, and she is apparently terribly affectionate and very excitable.
Everyone at the vets is delighted that she's coming to a home rather
than being PTS.

I'm speaking to the head nurse tomorrow who is a ferret specialist, to
just get an idea of what to expect, then I have to go shopping for a
cage, ferret supplies and some chicken, and then I pick her up...
*GULP*!

I've talked my next door neighbour Ann into looking after her whilst I
am away for 2 weeks and I'm actually pretty excited now I have some idea
what to expect.

I also expect to be asking lots of ferrety questions.... Tweed,
Nanny....

Purrs and best wishes for a happy, healthy ferret-kid. MLB
