Eric has been a right pain today!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy and Eric de Ferret here.

First thing this morning, before the sun got up and while it is still dark and cold, I woke Old Two Legs up in my normal fashion, a cold wet nose in his ear!

That always wakes him up but does nothing for his good humour!

We headed off to the sea front and it was exceedingly windy with a nasty wind chill as well!

We were a little early for the sunrise but was treated to an ever-changing vista over the top of Sheerness!

You can tell it's still dark but the sun could light up the clouds. It was a better shot five minutes earlier but OTL couldn't get across the football field quick enough!

Just as we got around the corner it started to change again and the clouds were begining to get lighter!

Then, the sun poked its head over the horizon and there was the sunrise!

Back home Eric was being a right pain. He would cuddle up in OTL's arms and pretend to go to sleep. OTL would then put him back under the blanket for him to sleep but as soon as his butt hit the blanket, he was up and scrambling to get into OTLs arms again!

This went on for ages and OTL couldn't get any work done, so, Eric got packed up in the travelling cage and off we went down to the football field where Eric was taken out and put down on the grass for a run!

Eric don't do running!

A slow waddle maybe but today is his first time out for ages and he had forgotten what the grass smelt like and how the earth was damp and cold!

The walk was longer than normal but Eric got to have a walk between being carried in the Ferret Bag!

Back home it didn't take long for him to fall asleep under the blanket and that is where he stayed all afternoon, allowing OTL to get on with some work!

See you all tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy and Eric de Ferret.

Sunday.

 Hi Woofers!

Daisy and Eric de Ferret here.

What a day, first off it was all frost and by lunchtime it was almost warm and balmy!

Being Sunday that means we get an extra half an hour in bed and that also means that the sunrise has risen and was heading towards Sunset!

Looks more like a rocket taking off!

Eric has been having fun, he started off wanting to get out of his cage for a run around, then he fell asleep in the bedroom while I went out for a walk and just as we were going out at lunchtime, he was banging on the cage door to come out again.

By the time we got back from the walk he was fast asleep on the carpet in The Missus store room!

That's how his day has gone!

This afternoon we sat back and watched a DVD and I must admit, I fell asleep having a cuddle on OTL's lap!

I've just remembered that tomorrow is Monday and the only day where there is nothing planned. Not like the rest of the week, dentist then car menders then visit to a couple of customers.

It's all go you know!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy and Eric de Ferret.

Living Dangerously!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy and Eric de Ferret here!

What a day, like, this morning it was windy as we headed off to the sea wall, windy but not cold, in fact it had all the promise of getting warmer around lunchtime!

Once again, just cos it's the weekend, Old Two Legs got up late so by the time we got down to see the sea, the sun was high in the sky, but we still got a moody photo but not as good as yesterday!

Moody but we have seen better!

We met up with some weekend woofers, I call them weekenders cos during the week they get a walk near to home or even I the back garden which is not good for a woofer!

I mean, a woofer needs fresh air and a good selection of sniffs, let's face it, sniffing your own wee just doesn't have the same excitement!

Talking of excitement, when we get back from the morning walk, OTL normally tells me to go and have a snooze while the ferrets have a run around the house. Since Miss Wendy has left us, OTL has been leaving the bedroom door open and Eric has been wandering into the bedroom to see what's going on.

Now Eric is OK as a ferret and doesn't try to bite me and I let him wander past me as goes hunting squeaky balls!

OTL is all for a quiet life and encourages us to get on together. Mind you, I have been known to have a little grumble when we arrive nose to nose either side of some chicken strips!

Sometimes I jump up onto OTL's lap and have a snoozy cuddle and Eric gets to have a cuddle when he is in OTL's arms.

Today we had a first, Daisy on OTL's lap and Eric on Daisy's back having a snoozy cuddle! 

Now, this is a first!

Providing OTL is there to look after us I don't mind Eric having a snoozy cuddle and as long as he doesn't run around on my back, it's quite nice to have him cuddle up!

Talk about living dangerously, I got given a Broccoli stalk to chew on! Now, I don't mind carrots but this Broccoli tasted like well rotten rabbit’s poo!

I think I'll stick to carrots and chicken chews!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy and Eric de Ferret.
