Sally the ferret is gone

     Sally, formally Sally Sasquatch--we never called her that, as it was insulting to talk about her big feet that way--was terminally ill, and miserable, and we had her put to sleep.
     That marks the end of the ferret period of our history. I'll take the cage and donate it to the local ferret shelter next weekend. It's a nice cage. It was bedroom to several ferrets, though our whole house was their home. They had the run of it only when were awake, though, as they were not to be trusted.

Ferrets


I'm down to one now. Sally, the little silver girl, is the one I always thought would make the best only ferret, as she's very sociable with people. She likes hanging around with us, and likes to be petted and held. Of course she struggles to get down, but she comes back for more within a couple minutes, so you know she wants it. She still likes zippers and apples, though is less obsessed with them than when she was younger. She's happy just to tool around the house and burrow.
