A Dull, Wet, Windy Saturday!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret back with you again!

Well, we blame Archie Babe it's his fault!

Not only did he get a shampoo and shave before going to the vets but he splashed pictures all over FaceAche showing wot he looked like!

There was The Missus holding up a picture and showing it to Old Two Legs!

That was it, off he went to get all the ironmongery from the shed and the shower was prepared and the shampoo and scrubbing brush got ready.

First we went off for our morning walk, there wasn't much to see, in fact, there was nothing to see at all!

Well, that's where Sheerness should be!
 We stood there for a while and Holly did come up with the idea that we should have a roll in the mud to make the forthcoming bath worth it.

Unfortunately the tide was in and it covered the mud, so bang goes that idea!

We should have been earlier or maybe we could hang about for a few hours?
 Back home the ferrets were on strict orders not to spend too long rampaging as we needed the kitchen and bathroom!

First Holly was plonked onto the desk top and photographed, OTL says it is the 'Before'

Before and she reckons it looks OK to her!
 Then she got the full works, shampooed, depood and shaved to within six millimetre of her skin!

Of course, she showed off and danced about trying to escape but OTL had put the straps on and she was stuck!

She got the full treatment and ended up looking like this!

Looking Good Miss Holly!
 After the walk at lunchtime it was my go in the shower and I got the full treatment as well!

We didn't do a 'Before' and I really didn't want to do an 'After' but OTL managed this shot!

Just wait for me to find a really stinky sniff to roll in!
I stood the electric shaver for a couple of seconds but OTL knows I throw wobblies when he uses that, so he had to do my haircut with the scissors, not as 'balanced' but the scissors didn't scare me too much!

We plan to have a relaxing night tonight and tomorrow it will be OTL's turn to have his beard shaved and his hair cut.

Holly and I are going to share the job between us!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

  1. Yo littler maties. Now I didn't see anything wrong with Holly chops before picture either and if I'd been OTL I think I would have waited a bit longer and not spent so much on electramacity. Holly does still look very pretty and so do you Daisy. Now my excuse was so that the skin specialist could see my skin. He was alright as vets go, he let me wander round the room sniffing and nosing while he gassed to my mum all about me, of course. Then he got some sticky tape and put it between my toes, then he pulled some hair out by the roots, then he stuck cotton buds in both of my ears, then he got his sharp knife out and scraped some skin off my back, he wanted some dandruff but there wasn't any so he couldn't have any. Then he said my mum could take me for a wee while he looked at everything under a microscope. He was very happy when we went back cos he said everything was normal. Then he was talking to my mum about a new treatment which stops my brain from getting the message that I might be itchy, which in turns stops me scratching, which in turn keeps my skin nice so then I don't become itchy. My mum reckoned it sounded good and cos there aren't any nasty side effects agreed for him to stab me, well he was so quick and gentle that I didn't even know he'd stabbed me and of course the bits of biscuit my mum had helped me not notice. So from Monday he said my mum could cut down my steroid, the following week I will only have a steroid once every other day and then the following Monday I won't have any more steroids. I have to go back in a month to see him and have a check up and if it works well then I get another stabbing. My mum said I was a very good boy and I have to admit I did get plenty of cuddles so I don't mind. The only thing I'm bothered about is that there is snow forecast for Easter and having not much hair I don't want to get cold. Oh and bonus, I've lost weight as well. It's such a shame that there wasn't any mud for you an Holly to roll in. OTL must have worked very hard today and I expect he just feels like relaxing and having cuddles tonight. Make sure Mrs TM doesn't take all the duvet cos you might feel a bit chilly without your hair. I hope you both got a good scoff after letting OTL bath and trim you today. Have a lovely evening and hope the muggings are good. My mum is still in shock at the bill for this morning but she'll probably get over it in a week or two. Love, licks, wags and sniffs from little Arch and the Nippers. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
