It's Our Birthday!

Yo Ho Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May here!

Guess wot? We are six years old today, well Holly and I are six!

We almost forgot it but Old Two Legs woke up this morning singing 'Happy Birthday to Yooo', we thought he had gone a little potty but then it clicked and we joined in the chorus!

We both had a big present each and it was wrapped up in loads of brown paper!

Holly and I dug in and quickly decided we couldn't eat it!

Then suddenly it flopped open and we saw it was a super dead smart new bed!

It felt all 'Wobbly' to begin with and OTL says it is filled with air and the whole thing is designed to be soft and comfortable!

Holly and I can confirm they are both super comfortable 'cos we have been on them almost all the day! We got OTL to put them in the office and Holly and I have been enjoying an extended snooze, all day!

Doesn't get much better!

I could sleep here all day. Oops! I think I have slept here all day!

First thing this morning there was a super sunrise over the Medway Estuary and it was all lit up like Christmas!

Sunrise and Sheerness!

Snowflake had some fun 'Ferreting' around in the sea weed and under some of the stones on the beach. 

Then she announced that it would be her birthday next!

It's my birthday next and I'll be five years old!

Now five is a good age for a ferret and she is in top condition for her age. OTL says it is because she gets lots of walks and good food!

Snowflake says it is because she just good looking!

Lunchtime we were sniffing along the beach when Holly and I found this real stinky sniff, in fact it was so strong that we reckon OTL could have sniffed it!

Holly reckoned that because it was our birthday, we should be allowed a really good long roll in the sniff, just as a treat.

April said that if we did have a roll, we would both be tied up in the back of the car and when we got home OTL would give us a soapy bath!

Maybe a sniff will have to do!

 April and May had fun on the grass path but once they got going we all had a running race back to the car!

How about a cuddle OTL?

 April tried to get a lift back but OTL said she needs a run at least once a day!

Mind you, when we got back she did get a cuddle from OTL and a slurp of Ferretone!

We are looking forward to some chicken tonight, all warm and greasy!

OTL says that if we eat it all up we'll get a chew as a birthday treat!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May.

But It's a Wet Wednesday!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May back again!

What a Yuck day it's been, weather wise anyway!

We knew we were in trouble when Old Two Legs insisted we wear our rain coats this morning!

You know he even had to put us on our leads when we got out of the car 'cos we sort of stopped and didn't want to go any further and really wanted to get back into the warm car!

Miss Snowflake agreed with us but she snuggled deep down into OTL's coat and stuck her nose out and left the tip of her tail showing as well!

When we got let off the lead, what did we get?

WET!

Why does she always get a cuddle and a carry?

Snowflake did a crafty one, she said that she would only do a wee if OTL promised to carry her back to the car!

Well, she got a carry off the beach but it was back to joging back to the car for her as soon as we hit the grass path!

It was a good try anyway!

OK, here's the Deal, I Wee and then you carry, OK?

We spent the morning tucked up in our snoozing positions under OTL's office desk. Holly had a nibble of a Biscuit Bone and I finished off a Teeth Cleaning Chew!

Lunchtime it was still raining!

We got put on the lead again and this time it was April and May who were digging into OTL's coat looking for a dry spot!

Still, they didn't have to go scampering all over the beach, you see it was raining a little harder and OTL's camera is a bit old and it wasn't handling the high ISO setting (technical bit!) so everything was looking blurred!

Mind you, both May and April were happy to get a bit of fresh air on their noses even if it meant getting a little damp! 

I don't care, I want to go back home to my cushion!

As we got closer to the car both ferrets were pulling OTL along and they were even keeping up with Holly who was striding out and mumbling about 'Damp Tails'!

Not far now!

One of the good things is that OTL keeps a doggy towel in the car and the ferrets get a good rub down first, then Holly and I get a going over as well. We aren't bone dry but it stops us from dripping over the seat!

OTL spent the afternoon working while us Woofers enjoyed a warm bed and a long snooze!

Now, tomorrow, OTL tells us, is a 'Special Day'! Now we are not sure what he is going on about but he says we will like it. So, that means sunshine a food and walkies, well what else is there!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May.

Tuesday ain't bad either!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May back with you again!

Well, what a day! It has been all sunshine and balmy breezes today.

We were out this morning a little later than normal but we all enjoyed the run along the beach.

Old Two Legs left the camera at home so there were no pictures of Holly and I chasing twenty foxes along the beach and he missed Miss Snowflake beating seven sorts of Ferret Poo out of a gang of very rude Stoats!

Honest!

Lunchtime it was all go again and we were ''Harassed'  by a couple of Bozo Labrador Woofers who showed a more that healthy interest in May and April!

One of the Bozo's actually told OTL to 'Throw the Rat and We'll Fetch it for you'!

OTL told them both where to go and what to do when they got there!

Mind you May didn't help thing by hissing and spitting at them, from the safety of OTL's shoulder!

Now, on the way back to the car OTL took a picture of Holly Dog like wot you never normally see, and, it is just for Archie Babe!

Holly with Eyeballs!

Holly's got Eyeballs!

Now this doesn't last for too long you know. Normally the hair grows over her eyes and she becomes all 'Mysterious'!

So for just a few days after having a haircut, she can see where she is going!

Right, we are off to do some mugging, OTL has got Gammon Steak tonight and both Holly and I just love the way The Missus cooks it, just ten seconds before burnt black!

Keeps yer teeth clean!

Bye bye for now!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May.

We Love Monday's!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May here!

It's Monday again!

You know what is good about Mondays? Everyone goes back to work and we get the Beach to ourselves!

Miss Snowflake stayed cuddled up in Old Two Legs arms, again, you know she is beginning to make a habit of this. I mean, OTL doesn't cuddle Holly and I and transport us to the beach!

Mind you, all this inactivity caused Snowflake a bit of a scare. There she was, balancing on a pile of sea weed, doing her business and on completion, she happened to glance down into the rock pool.

There, in plain sight, just where she had pointing her tail, was the most enormous poo of a colour that indicated a trip to the vet, PDQ!

'What the Woof is that?' she said inviting us all to have a look!

Well, Holly, OTL and I knew what it was straight away but Snowflake had never seen anything like that before!

A Ferret Poo?

She couldn't work out why we were all laughing!

In the end Holly told her it was a Golf Ball that the Two Legs like to loose all over the world!

Snowflake said that they should go and loose them somewhere else and not scare a ferret like that!

That could give a girl a nasty shock!

The sun came up quickly and on the way back we met up with the Bedlington Terrier who has taken a fancy to Holly.

Miss Holly Chops, being the Big Tart, was dancing around him and getting him into trouble 'cos she wasn't on a lead and he was!

Oh Gawd! She is 'SO' embarrassing, I just can't look!

Today, the Page 3 Girls didn't stay awake after they had their rampage around the house, I suppose it was the biscuits that they were eating and pinching that just wore them out!

Miss May spent a long time getting into our bag of special biscuits and in the end only managed to pinch two 'cos The Missus spotted her hiding one under the settee!

Lunchtime came and they were still asleep, so OTL had to get them dressed up in their harnesses while they were snoozing!

On the beach Holly was keeping an eye out for Bert, cos she reckons he is so easy to wind up but today we didn't see him.

Snowflake reckons he goes out early, before the Bedlington Terrier, so that means we will have to get up in the middle of the night to catch him!

No, no sign of Bert!

Miss May woke up as soon as OTL put her on the sand and she scampered off to dig a hole or two and try to climb the Sea Wall.

Come on April, new sniffs!

April took a bit longer to wake up but once she had managed to keep her eyes open, she was off to the grass path.

She just loves 'swimming' through the grass and OTL calls her a 'Grass Shark'!

I reckon it is just another excuse to go rolling in a sniff!

I'm a Ferret Shark!

We have been sniffing in the kitchen but can't work out what OTL has got for dinner tonight, I do hope it's not salad, the poor lad can't take any more!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May.

You can't beat a Sunday Afternoon Snooze!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May here on a super lazy Sunday!

Well, it was to be a lazy day but we started off a bit earlier than you would think!

Old Two Legs got woken up by Holly and I having a 'Discussion' over a rawhide chew!

The ferrets were still asleep, which is not normal! Mind you, as soon as OTL brought the milk up they were all awake!

I had a bit of a Grumbly Tum and told OTL I needed to go out so at seven we were mobile and heading towards the beach.

When we got there it was rather dark and misty across the river Medway. It didn't stop Snowflake from climbing all over the sea weed and chasing us back to the car!

Dark and Misty!

She stopped only to have a roll in something smelly!

How come she can get away with a roll?

 Back home OTL was re=arranging the Office desk 'cos the new monitor has to stand on the desk instead of hanging on the wall like the last one did.

That gave the Page 3 Girls longer to have a 'Rampage' around the house and of course, they made the best use of the time to rob our biscuit bowl and chase OTL around and then back to the kitchen to have a roll in the washing and finally there is the 'Free Style Ferret Wrestling'

2 Falls, 1 Submission or a Knockout!

 Miss April made a super discovery, a big pile of clothes that are waiting for The Missus to iron. It was an enormous pile 'cos TM is not into ironing, mind you you could add cooking and house work to that list as well!

This is GOOD!

 Surprisingly enough, the Page 3 Girls didn't go back to sleep and instead, when they went back into the cage, they stayed awake by kicking their Poo Pot and other toys all around the cage. Around eleven thirty we decided that we should go out again and off we went back to the beach again!

This time it was bright and there was even a little sun!

Holly and I had a game of 'Chase' up and down the beach and I got into digging a couple of holes as well!

That was until May came creeping up on my blind side and shouted 'Rabbits!'

Nearly scared the Woof out of me!

RABBITS!!!!

 May had a dig in my hole then headed off to the half boat that was still on the beach after a week of being washed by the tide. I think it will be here for some time!

May had a good ferret around and even managed to get a length of dried sea weed caught on her harness!

Tangled up in Sea Weed!

Back home they both headed for bed and in no time at all were snoring their tails off!

Holly and I headed for our cushions and joined the ferrets in a Sunday Afternoon Snooze!

Now, we have seen an email that OTL got yesterday, on November 21st The Harietsham Ferret Rescue will be holding their Christmas Ferret Show!

This year we are expecting great things for the Page 3 Girls, since being with us they have both had a moult and are looking 'The Business'!

They have both put on weight and their claws are being kept to a 'Natural Length' by walking on the concrete Sea Wall. With Snowflake, OTL has to trim her claws every so often so we have to make sure they are trimmed and then 'Worn in' just in time for the show!

The show is being held at the same place as last year, the Harrietsham Village Hall.

We will remind you again nearer the time together with the full address for your Sat-Nav thingy!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May.

A Saturday with Old Two Legs.

Hi! Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May here!

This morning The Missus headed off to her 'Saturday Crop' at the Village Hall.  Trouble was, she was about a couple of hours late and we were shoved out early so we could come back and take all her stuff up the hall before everyone arrives!

That means, we were walking in the dark!

Lucky for Old Two Legs, his camera has a light thingy on it to shine on whatever he is taking a picture of!

In this case, it was out backsides!

If you can't see, close your eyes and use your nose!

Mind you, Snowflake says that she can see in the dark 'cos ferrets are good like that!

This is nothing, you should try Rabbit Holes, now they can be dark!

Snowflake tried the trick of running up the Sea Wall, just like the Page 3 Girls but as she had her claws cut last week, they were not as pointy as the girls, so she fell off half way along the wall!

Anything they can do, I can do better!

I must admit, it was a bit chilly, the wind was blowing in from the north and that's not a good place to get wind from!

Back we went and pretty soon we were indoors and keeping out of the way of the Page 3 Girls who were charging around the house!

They have this game they play with OTL. First they run away, dooking and dancing all about, then, they rush back to OTL and jump up onto his lap and give him a fun 'Nip'. Well, it not a nip really more a 'Grab' and then let go and run away dooking again!

April also loves trying to run up OTL's lap but she also tries to run up his trouser leg!

She runs up and then starts dooking before climbing back down again!

They stayed out on their rampage for almost two hours before heading back for a snooze before their lunchtime walk!

It was still blowing from the North but down on the beach we had some fun digging holes and playing 'Chase', even when we heard a woofing in the distance but it was just Bella the Staffy who wanted her ball to be thrown!

That sounds like Bella!

 The girls had fun digging as well and Miss May was doing her favourite trick of sticking her nose into the sand and pushing it up in front of her!,

April joined in as well then headed up the grass path and back to the car, she was feeling a little cold!

Come on, let's play Sandcastles!

 Back home OTL was busy doing all his chores and this time it was a very enjoyable chore, installing his super new curved screen monitor!

Mind you, it does look super and he spent the afternoon watching one of the Hobbit films on Netflix in HD!

Posh or wot?

We are expecting to have a relaxing night tonight and OTL says he will have a slurp of his favourite whisky tonight, just as a celebration, and of course, where's there is whisky, there is Shortbread!

Let's hope tomorrow the wind drops and we won't so cold in our short coats!

Bye bye for now.

Luv

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May.

Wash, Splosh and it is still Raining!

Hi! Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May here!

Well, today it has been horrible!

We had to put up with The Missus snoring all night! How can a poor woofer get some sleep nowadays if these Two Legs spend all night roaring their heads off!

We were up early, as you would expect, and down the beach for a wee. Trouble was, it was raining that horrible misty rain that was not only cold, but it sort of creeps up on you and before you know it, your wet!

Snowflake stayed in Old Two Legs arms until we got to the beach and then, after the 'Usual's' , she almost dragged OTL back to the car!

I ain't stopping for no one!

One speedy ferret!

We went straight down to the 'Parlour' and got in conversation with a parrot that lives in a cage in reception. He kept whistling at us and of course, OTL tried whistling back. Only not very successfully 'cos the parrot blew a raspberry at him when he tried to copy the whistle!

Well, we got left and shoved in one of the 'Waiting Cages' which was small and it had a hard floor as well. So our snoozing was interrupted by aching bones!

Then, instead of OTL picking us up at two, like normal, he had to leave it until three 'cos the lady was all behind!

That didn't please Holly and me especially as we had a smelly Westie next to us who had been eating something that gave him the wind!

I won't bore you with the details but we got washed, shaved, sprayed and clipped!

Funny thing is, once we have finished, if you look at Holly and me, face on, we look identical!

Tonight we are expecting a good mugging as OTL says he will get the shortbread out to help smooth over the pain of having to order a new PC monitor 'cos the one he has on the wall died a most horrible death, it went blank and refused to display anything!

OTL has ordered another from PC Whirligigs and it should be delivered tomorrow. So, we have the delight to come of OTL trying to get it mounted on the wall and looking good, especially as this one has a curved screen!

Posh or wot!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May.

We discover where our biscuits are going!

Hi! Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May here again!

It's another chilly day down here, Miss Snowflake insisted on staying in Old Two Legs arms all the way down to the beach and she tried to get a lift back as well but OTL insisted she get some exercise!

Too cold for swimming!

Which was just as well 'cos she inspected the half boat on our beach and announced that there were no ferrets on board!

No, no Ferrets here!

Of course we had to do a second inspection, just to make sure there are no Woofers hiding down the bottom of the boat either!

No Woofers either!

When we got back home there was a meal of Chicken and rice and grated carrot. Not the most exciting meal when you are not that hungry, but we made an effort and finished off the Teeth Cleaning Chew as well!

We retired to our beds but were awoken by a scratchy noise coming from our food cupboard. We notified OTL and he went to investigate!

There she was, April the 'Sneaky One', she had knocked the packet off the shelf and was inside up to her tummy!

Mmm, I might be able to use them for trading with the Woofers!

Not that OTL believed April for one moment, he knew where she was heading but she said that she was putting the biscuits back on the shelf 'cos the box had fallen off the shelf and there was a danger of the Nargles eating them all!

Honest,I'm just putting it back on the shelf!

She pretended to climb up onto the shelf but as soon as OTL turned his back.........

Ratholes! I've been caught!

In total, she managed to hide two biscuit bones behind the book case which is terrible 'cos Holly and I can sniff them but can't get to them 'cos the gap is too small for us to get behind!

Lunch time we met up with Dave and his mates. One of them was dead interested in the girls. He kept leaning over the edge of the Sea Wall and was asking if the ferrets tasted like chicken. Holly, who doesn't take having her biscuits pinched was considering giving the woofer a shove so he lands on top of April, then he can find out what they taste like!

Does it taste like Chicken?

But she didn't!

We have moved our biscuits to a safe place so they won't be able to pinch any more.

We are off to the Parlour tomorrow for our Shampoo & Set. We have asked OTL to bring our coats with him when he comes to pick us up 'cos it's bound to be chilly!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May.

A Busy Day for OTL

Hi! Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May here again today!

Well, wot a lot of comments yesterday! I mean, Sausage got more response and comments that Holly's Grumbly Tum!

Yes, it was a shame Snowflake didn't want a new friend but in the end it is her we worry about and if she don't want a new mate then she will just have to put up with Old Two Legs and us!

Mind you, she is having great fun teasing the Page 3 Girls by climbing all over their cage when they can't get out!

This morning OTL had to pack up all the tools and go back to work again. Today he has been working on Dustbin Lorries mending the radios and installing new ones.

He took us out first thing and today he took the Page 3 Girls 'cos yesterday he took Snowflake out nearly all day and the girls missed out on a rampage along the beach. So, Snowflake got a run around the house while the girls had an early morning rampage with OTL!

Windy, Cold and Just right for a Rampage!

Both of the girls have discovered a new game. It's called. 'Lets Run Up OTL's Leg'

April discovered it 'cos she is always trying to get back into the bag by running up OTL's trouser leg, some times she makes it and other times she falls off!

Not today!

With the aid of the Sea Wall!

 It was so funny to see her go charging up the wall that May decided she just had to have a go as well!

Two Legs, Two Ferrets!

 Seems the Sea Wall comes in handy!

Back up on the top path, I was telling April all about the Winter time and how we start off with Frost.

Now it seems that the girls have never seen frost or snow 'cos they have always been inside, so, I explained what frost and snow was and how it was so cold it tickled you nose and whiskers!

Now the girls are looking forward to the first frosts of Autumn!

Frost is terrific!

 Back home we said Bye, bye to OTL as he headed off to play with the Dustbin Lorries and get all smelly!

The Missus took us out at lunch time, still windy and wet and guess what? She forgot the camera!

Snowflake got a run around the house and she was playing with a towel that TM was dragging around for Snowflake to chase and grab.

Great fun and she was dooking all the time, Snowflake that is, not TM!

OTL got back late and of course we gave him a big Woofers Welcome.

He is downstairs at the moment finishing off his curry, so we are going down to see what there is to mug when he gets the shortbread and whisky out!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May.

No, It Didn't Work for Snowflake!

Hi! Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May here again today!

Well, what a day we have been having. First of all it was definitely chilly this morning when we went out for a walk. Miss Snowflake didn't  even insist on getting out of Old Two Legs arm for a wee, she wee'd over OTL's arm and his coat!

OTL said he felt a 'Warm Feeling' all over his hand!

We know what that was!

When we got to the beach Snowflake suggested that we have a wee then head back to the car as quickly as possible!

OK, I've wee'd, now can we go?

 We looked over her shoulder at the morning sky and sort of agreed with her!

Cold and Windy!

When we got home Holly and I headed for our food bowls while Snowflake and OTL had a little chat.

You see, there is a little Polecat Ferret that has been handed into the Harrietsham Ferret Rescue 'cos her owner couldn't look after her any more. She is very well handled and is a lovely little thing. She used to sit with her owner in the evenings and watch TV with him! He was very sorry to give her away but he had lost his house and just couldn't keep her any more. Her name is 'Sausage', I suppose that is 'cos she looks like a little sausage!

So, OTL and Snowflake had an appointment this morning to see if Sausage and Snowflake were going to be friends!

They got to Harrietsham and were introduced to each other. At first it looked good, sniffing and ear licking but then something happened and they were rolling on the floor screaming at each other!

That was it out of the cage came Snowflake and Sausage was put back in her own cage.

Such a pity 'cos she is such a sweet little thing and because she has been so well handled she doesn't bite or nip at all, unless you are another ferret!

We decided that she has bonded with Two Legs and that is what she needs!

Not to be defeated, and because they had travelled many miles it was decided to try Snowflake with a Hob, (male) ferret who hadn't been doctored yet. So, out he came and almost as soon as he went into the cage, Snowflake turned on him and he had to be rescued by OTL!

The next ferret was an Albino Jill who hadn't been doctored either. That didn't work out too well 'cos although they didn't fight, Snowflake was a bit scared and so was the other little girl and it was obvious that warfare was about to start!

Next came Percy, a big Hob who had been doctored and he was the most laid back ferret in the centre! He had a sniff around and then tried some of Snowflakes food, then he had a drink and then went off sniffing the cage for sniffs!

Snowflake was very wary and you could see she was not happy, she kept 'Nose Butting' him and showing her teeth to him!

That was it, OTL then decided that Miss Snowflake is not going to let another ferret replace Mr Brambles and so, back she went into her cage and her warm bed and back home to us!

So, it looks like Snowflake will be a OTL's little girl, just like Holly and me!

OTL is out tomorrow doing work so unless The Missus takes her camera out when we go for a walk, we had better come up with a good tale!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake, Miss April and Miss May.
