A Ferret Break Out!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and Mr Freddy de Ferret back again!

It has been an 'Exciting Day' today!

You see it started off all sunny and warm. When we got to the car park by the sea there were loads of rabbits waiting to be chased!

Holly and I did our best but those pesky rabbits run away before we had a chance to get them!

Rabbit Pie?
 Down on the beach the tide was in and of course, I just had to have an early morning dip!

OK, where is the stick?
 While I was splashing about I spotted a ship on the horizon, heading into the River Thames. It was a small, container type cargo ship.

Another one to tick off the list!

A Container Cargo Ship!
 Old Two Legs found a short stick and kindly threw it out into the water a few times so I could get my exercise swimming backwards and forwards into the sea and back to the shore!

OK, just one more time!
 Back home there was some of that 'Posh Scoff'  that I am getting a taste for and Holly will eat, but only as a last resort!

OTL went off cleaning the ferret cages, The Page 3 Girls first.

After they were put back, Fred and Wendy were let out for a rampage around the house. It all started off OK but after a game both ferrets disappeared!

I mean, really disappeared, like nowhere to be seen.

What was worse, The Missus had left the kitchen door to the garden wide open!

Panic Time!

OTL reckons the ferrets have a fifteen minute start on him and we didn't know which way they were heading!

TM was banging on the neighbours front doors asking them to check their back gardens for little furies on the rampage.

One neighbour went up to the football field just in case they had headed that way while OTL was looking under all the bushes in the front gardens.

Then there was a shout from one neighbour that they had seen a small brown thing down the side of their shed and OTL was there like a flash, it was Wendy looking all confused and scared!

She started to come to OTL when he called her but a dog woofed in the next garden and Wendy disappeared under the shed and refused to budge!

While this was happening the neighbour returned from the football field to find Freddy in her front porch looking for food, as he does!

TM marched him off to his cage and went back to help OTL coax Wendy out from under the shed.

It took a slurp of Ferretone to entice her far enough out from under the shed, and OTL poking her with a broom handle, for TM to grab Wendy.

Poor little girl was all scared and shaking and looking terribly worried!

Plus, she had been in some terrible sniff under the shed which OTL had to wash off her before she went back into the cage with Freddy!

So, all ended happily, ferrets back and TM will have to make sure the door is locked next time!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and Mr Freddy de Ferret.
