Eric gets another freezing!

 Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here!

The weather has been what the weatherman calls 'Changeable', we call it windy and wet!


 First it was windy and blew the leaves inside out!

 


 Looking up river we decided not to hang about and before long was back in the car park, just in time for the rain to give the car a good wash!

Well, today is the day when Eric gets another visit to the vet to try to sort out his tumour. We took him in early this morning after making sure he didn't have anything to eat and we had to telephone at one thirty to make sure everything was all right. That we did and he had recovered from the anaesthetic but was a little groggy, so he was going to rest some more and we could come and rescue him at four thirty!

When we got to him, he was still a little groggy but wide enough awake to be let go.

While we were there we met up with Clive, he's the one who looks after the Fluffy Ferret Forum.

He was there with Mars who had a swelling under the arm which was causing some concern. We crossed claws that all would be well then, we headed for home.

Back i9n the cage, Wendy gave him a lick behind the ears which made him feel better and after a treat of chicken strip he headed for the cuddle cup and snoozed the rest of the day away. 

The vet said that Eric had lost a bit of weight since his last visit and wasn't too sure about the lumps he could feel on his tummy.

In a weeks’ time we have got to take a picture of the tumour and email it to him. Alternately we could make an appointment if we feel it necessary.

We are all a little upset especially after Hollys’s tumour but we have done all we can and will just have to keep an eye on Eric.

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Eric gets an appointment.

 Hello Woofers.

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here!

Why is a Monday so dull?

Maybe it's due to the Super Sunday snoozing your tail off that turns into 'Get Up Lazy, We Got Work'!

It was so nice snoozing on the bed, until in comes The Missus and drags me off the bed to go for the early morning walk!

I wouldn't mind but there was rain in the air and a wind blowing and trying to look like a hurricane!

Now, Erics leg was a little red last week and Old Two Legs got him into see the vet who agreed that another blast of the Cryo Pen was called for. Only problem was, he didn't have a Cryo Pen that was available for use. So, we got the 'Call back Friday' when the pen should arrive, which it didn't, but call again on Monday and see what we can do.

So, ring ring, ummm, errr, can you call Wednesday?

Then, an hour later, Ring Ring, we got the pen, call in tomorrow and we'll zap him while you wait!

OK, sorted!

Now, Eric was listening to all of that and got excited at the thought of losing the lump, not that it bothered him but it could develop into something nasty and he would rather get rid of it than let it grow!

In fact, he was so happy that he started to rattle the cage door which is his way of saying he wanted to come out for a walk at lunchtime.

When we got down onto the beach OTL released the lead off of Eric and he enjoyed a race along the hightide mark!

After that it was all downhill all the way back to the car.

We took the little car when we went out and getting back, he noticed that the new car had got a scratch on the door!

He is not sure if it will polish out with some T Cut but he was upset that someone had scratched somehow.

OTL is not a 'Happy Puppy'!

See you all tomorrow and keep your claws crossed for Eric.

Luv,

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.
