Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here!
Wot a super sunny day today! OK, well first thing this morning there was some frost on the grass when we went out for our walk. Old Two Legs got some frost on his boots but by the time we got home it had all gone so we couldn't rub any on Eric’s nose!
OTL has signed up to a web site that is all about ferrets and today there were three YooToob videos of what his ferrets got up to. Now, before you click on the links, the garden is 'Ferret Proof' and these ferrets have a great time running in and out of the garden and around the house!
Lucky Ferrets!
So, this is copied from The Fluffy Ferret Forum and the post is from Clive.
Lion and Kat decided that was a great idea... Lion just had to push it too far..

Then we had to have the obligatory bundle

We have a couple of black plastic troughs in the garden that we keep full of rain water, as the birds, squirrels and ferrets love to drink from them. I popped this old "house" in the one by the French windows, which Lion had to check out.

and Lastly, this is Lion and his brother Chewit... just to show they really are as bad as I make out..

Now, tell me you didn't laugh at those!
With our ferrets, they have a run around the house while OTL has his breakfast, checks the emails and plans the day’s work. Next, he cleans their cage out and has a game of chase with them until they both sneak off for a snooze!
Now there are three beds in the cage plus a blanket that is stretched across the cage to stop them from falling out of bed and off the ladders and onto the cage floor.
Depending on how tired they are they either put themselves to bed in the cage, hide in the Pinny Box, (Wendy), behind the stack of card and plastic boxes (Eric) or the inside of the sofa or arm chair! (They both hide there!)
Today Eric was first to be found and got put into the Cuddle Cup where he wriggled around until he was nearly falling out of bed and at that point, he fell asleep for a couple of hours.

Mind you, I think Holly and I look cute when we are curled up, asleep, on our beds!
See you tomorrow!
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.
Yo maties, well them videos did make us laugh, specially when they nearly fell into the pond. Do ferrets swim, my boy had guinea pigs when he was younger and he reckons they loved swimming, he said he had a paddling pool and the guinea pigs used to get in and their little legs went 10 to the dozen as they swam round. Now, I've never seen a guinea pig, let alone a guinea pig swim so I'm not sure if he's telling me porkies. My boy got home from work this afternoon and he got a phone call to say he's been furloughed, well I never noticed him walking funny but there you go, as long as it isn't painful then he can't complain, my mum is really happy about it so I'm guessing it's something good. The piggies are having pizza for dinner tonight and I'm just getting my ordinary scoff. My mum is off work now until Friday so that means lots of lay ins ....... yayeeee cos I'm not a morning chap really. Sounds like Eric needs a safety net to stop him falling out of his cuddle cup. Nice picture of him. It's been a bit warmer here today so I've been mooching round the garden and enjoying myself. Take care all and have a lovely evening. Love, licks, wags and sniffs from little Arch and the Nippers xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
ReplyDeleteThanks for the ferret focus! They are amusing creatures aren't they?
ReplyDeleteGuess what? I found a painted rock on a bench on my morning walk today! I'll send a photo over to TM for you.
Happy Sunny Sunday xxx
