Hello Woofers!
Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret here again!
Now, first of all, here is some news about Little Tommy Chops. It seems he has contracted 'Streptosheepypooandcatdroppings'. It's a nasty little bug that can be got from sheep poo or cat poo!
(loads of sheep around him but not sure about the cats!)
Or, it might have been got from unwashed food like raw carrots. We are still awaiting the final diagnosis but that is the favourite theory at the moment.
As you get older you are supposed to develop immunity to the nasty thing but little puppies are likely to pick it up.
Mind you, anything to do with cats is trouble, that's why we keep them out of our garden!
Claws crossed for Tommy and someone should tell him to stick to the rabbit poo, it's mostly grass and helps sort out your tummy grumbles!
Hey! Archie Babe, that Wee Scoop is wot OTL uses down this end of the world. I had trouble with my water works and he had to get a sample from me. Now the first time I was taken by surprise but the next time I was ready. I was taken out, on my own, on a short lead. I knew there was something going on.
Then, just as I got in position, OTL whipped out the wee catcher and shoved it under me.
So, I didn't go, I just walked on a few paces, then I did it again.
Then I walked on a few paces and again assumed the position, only to change my mind and walk on!
It was o much fun that I kept it up for ten minutes or so until I just couldn't wait any longer!
Now, we know that you don't subscribe to the Fluffy Ferret Forum but we like to look in and see what other ferret people are doing and get some tips on ferrets from Two Legs who have ferrets.
Now, for the last few days there has been a 'string' about food dehydrators. You see you can get ferret and woofer treats in the form of chicken fillets, which I just love, but if you go to Pets 'R' Us a bag costs just over £3! OTL has been hunting around on the Internetty Thing and found the same thing for £2 a bag, but he has to buy in bulk of thirty bags at a time! Loads of dosh!
Now this string is all about dehydrators and it is following two ferret people finding all about and learning to use a dehydrators to dry out chicken, beef, apples, oranges, bananas, carrot and a load of other stuff!
You can even produce Beef Jerky, which OTL loves, when he can get hold of it!
Now, you can guess what has happened, today it arrived and OTL and TM have been looking, reading and researching all about the thing!
Looking at the instructions, it will be about a ten hour performance to produce anything, but, if they can produce chicken like the chicken fillets it will be a great saving and also, all the dried fruit will be a great substitute for chocolate bars, choccy biscuits, crisps and fruit pastels!
As you can guess, OTL is trying to slim down a bit and loose his 'Tummy'. He is on a strict diet of salad and meat at the moment plus as many plums as he wants, but dried fruit to add to his nibbles seems like a good idea!
Of course TM wants to try it as well and all us woofers are just dying to taste the chicken or beef!
More news when it comes!
See you tomorrow!
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

Sunshine and Blue Sky!
Hi Woofers!
Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret here again!
We stayed up late last night, watching a couple of DVD's 'cos The Missus went out to the village hall to host a 'Mid Week Glue Slap'!
Seems that some of these ladies can't always get along to the weekend workshops so a mid week do is just right for them, and it means we can have a break from watching the recordings of the Shopping Channel where TM's cards are being shown. I mean, just how many times does she have to watch it?
By the time we got up it was light and everyone was out walking on the beach or the grass. We had to keep a careful watch for woofers who fancy a 'Ferret Breakfast'!
There was one time when a Jack Russel by the name of Kira, came tearing along and little Miss May suddenly flew through the air into Old Two Legs arms!
When we got back, May and Eric went for their rampage around the house while OTL cleaned up the cages and Little May was so worn out that she wrapped herself up in our Doggy Towel and fell asleep!
Today OTL got his new Winter Coat delivered, it's one of those that you can zip a fleece inside when it gets really cold and there is a hood that wraps right around his face so that you can only see his nose and eyes!
Of course, he had to wear it at the lunch time walk just so he can test it and the ferrets can have a look at the pockets and see if they can get inside and have a snooze if it gets too cold and wet outside!
Holly and I had a look but there was not enough room for us, and the ferrets, and OTL!
We have not got any more news about little Tommy but we have got our claws crossed.
Holly's eyes are looking better, not so red and sore, so the Conjunctivitis is slowly disappearing and by the weekend it should all be clear.
Just in time for a wash and hair cut!
OTL says that providing we don't tell The Missus, he will give Holly a wash in the big tub in the garden then dry her off and give her a trim in the kitchen where it is warm and dry!
Now that should be fun 'cos me and the ferrets could sit by the door and watch!
See you tomorrow!
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

A Prayer for Tommy.
Hello Woofers!
Here we are again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret!
Now yesterday we heard some news that little Tommy, Izzy's puppy, was not feeling too good, seems he has a pain that the Two Legs can't sort out yet.
He has not felt like playing with the others and has staying in his corner feeling sorry for himself. He was at the vets first thing today and is having x ray's to see if there is anything obvious. He likes a rough and tumble and may have hurt his bones somewhere. We are all keeping our claws crossed for him and Holly and I include him in our prayers when we go to bed.
Today the wind has dropped away and it was rather warm out there. OTL didn't take his hat with him and he even put on his light fleece thing as well!
Mind you, he has ordered a big coat for the winter that you can wear a fleece underneath the coat, it is really warm and you can bet the ferrets will find a way of getting inside when the wind blows!
This afternoon Freddy was woken up to go out for a walk, he said he would have rather stayed in bed but OTL said he needed the exercise!
Freddy got a carry down to the beach and managed a walk over the sea shells and up onto the grass. That was when he said his paw was sore and fell over onto his back saying he couldn't walk another step!
No one believed a word but he did get a carry up to the top of the hill!
Holly decided that what she wanted was to use the sand to exfoliate her hair, that was until OTL told her off and put her on the lead until we got away from the sand!
I of course carried on digging just to wind her up!
She was not amused!
This afternoon it was all work, work, work for OTL, he had customers to see and deliveries to make, so Holly and I had a snooze under the desk until he came home!
See you all tomorrow and paws together for Tommy!
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret

Holly gets into trouble with OTL!
Hello Woofers!
Here we are again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.
Now you know that Holly Chops was taken to the vet to get her eyes sorted and that Old Two Legs cried all the way home? Well, this morning we all took a look at Holly's eyes and they were certainly a lot better looking than yesterday! All the redness had gone and although there was some gungy bits, there was definitely an improvement.
Now we all reckon that Holly brings it all on herself by her habit of nose diving into the sand on the beach and getting that in her eyes.
So, there we were, on the beach this morning and what did old Soppy Chops do? Yep, nose dive into the sand so she had a face full of sand all over her face and around her eyes!
OTL was not happy and told her that if she did it again she would be on the lead all the way home!
Now, the sky was rather dramatic this morning and of course, there was OTL snapping away trying to capture the drama of it all!
Now, it wasn't really as dark as the picture but he did darken it down a bit and also set the white balance to 'Cloudy' to get the effect.
Not bad for an amateur!
If you turned away from the sun you got this picture below. Now wot is strange about this photo is the grey misty bit in the middle.
Shoebury Ness sort of disappears like it is being rained on, but it didn't look like rain.......just strange!
Talking of Halloween, we reckon there will be more bangs tonight from those nasty whizz bangs, so OTL got the Adaptil Collar from off the shelf and wrapped it around Holly's neck last night. It seemed to help and she wasn't shaking for too long, but we did all end up in bed by eight thirty!
Now, someone, we can't remember, sent it to us about this time last year but the whizz bangs had all gone, so it was put on the shelf ready for this year. It is supposed to last about four weeks, so that should get Holly Chops through the whizz bangs, with a bit of luck!
So, a very big thank you from us and Holly Chops for the collar and if you put your paw up we'll send you a big wet sloppy licky kiss from us all, except OTL, he doesn't do licky kisses!
The ferrets seem not to be bothered by the bangs, they are too sleepy to bother with them!
See you tomorrow.
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

Happy Birthday Eric de Ferret!
Hi Woofers!
The Gangs all here, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret!
Today it is Eric's birthday...................so.............all together........after seven..........
Three........four....SEVEN!
Happy Birthday to Eric
We all think he's terrifec
His poo is pathetec
But we love him all the same!
Yaaaayyyyyyyy!
Yep, little Eric arrived here this time a year ago and as we are not sure of his exact birthday we have given him an 'Official' birthday, a bit like The Queen!
As a treat Eric got first slurp of the Ferretone this morning and he had first choice of the Chicken fillet and then he got a lift on Old Two Legs shoulder, all the way down to the travelling cage when we went out for our walk!
Mind you, he wanted a carry all the way around the morning walk!
Miss May had to go and tell OTL that Eric was 'Showing Off'
Birthday or not, there was only so much he could get away with and OTL says he was 'Pushing his Luck'!
Mind you, the sun was shining and the wind had dropped, so it wasn't that bad!
In the end he trotted along sniffing the sniffs and poking his head in the grass to see if there was any mouses or monsters he could 'Sort Out'!
We have noticed that his tail is getting very bushy and all grown up, it won't be long before he starts putting on some weight and getting as big as Freddy!
When we got back OTL had to take Holly to the vet to see about her eyes, Conjunctivitis, and she got pulled and poked and stuff put in her eyes and she even had a test to check on her tear ducts, (all OK) then stuff was squirted in to check for ulcers, (all OK) and finally the vet says that she had Conjunctivitis, which is wot OTL said in the first place!
Poor OTL, his wallet is all deflated and sore, a bit like Holly!
For all that he got two tubes of gunk to squirt into Holly's ear and eye!
Lunchtime we were back down the beach again and got stopped by a couple of Two Legs who thought that Fred and Wendy were Meerkats and then proceeded to ask hundreds of questions about Ferrets!
Freddy and Wendy got picked up and stroked and given back to OTL but the questions went on and on and in the end Freddy fell asleep in OTL's arms!
Loved the tale of Archie Babe being throw off the sofa! I reckon the next time Boy gets some food Archie Babe should knock it onto the floor and then it will be a race to see who gets to it first!
My money will be on Archie!
See you all tomorrow!
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

An extra Hour in bed, spoilt by a jet powered vacuum cleaner!
Hello Woofers!
It's us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret!
Wot a super day! A whole hour extra in bed!
Well, Holly and I got a hours snooze on top of wot we normally get. Old Two Legs wasn't so lucky.
The Missus was all agitated cos she had gone to bed early, seeing how she had spent a hard day sloshing glue around with The Cat Woman!
Now, when TM hits the sack early, that means she is up earlier the next day and if you also add that the clocks went back last night by a whole hour, there is a recipe for and exchange of opinions!
Now the exchange started around three in the morning as TM was cleaning up the 'Workshop'. Bang, Crash and the language! Just 'cos she dropped the water jar!
Then there was the crash that was made by a load of stuff that would only be picked up by the vacuum cleaner.
That's when the fight started!
Holly and kept our heads down and pretty soon it was light enough to get up.
We headed down to the beach and although the sun was up, there was loads of clouds!
Miss May had fun chasing sniffs while Eric stayed cuddled up in OTL's arms 'cos he reckons it was just too cold to walk!
Holly and I said hello to Polly and Bo and there was a funny sniff about Bo, we think she has puppies in her tummy!
We won't know for a couple of weeks or so but we all have our claws crossed for her.
Back home OTL has been busy on the computer 'cos it is 'The VAT Quarter' which is always fun, especially as it means he has to pay out money!
In the end it was all OK and he got the bits of paper telling him how much he will have to pay out and those go to the accountant to file away where he files all the paper!
Holly Chops may get a visit to the vet 'cos she had had some gungy eyes that OTL says could be Conjunctivitis, which she has had before. OTL says it's because she keeps rubbing her face on the sand and getting it in her eyes, then you get Conjunctivitis!
Trouble is, she never learns and the next time she is on the beach she goes nose diving into the sand again!
With a bit of luck it will just be some jollop that she has had before and then a week later it is cleared up!
We have had a snoozy afternoon, OTL on the computer and watching American Football on the TV, TM washing the ferrets bedding and Holly and the ferrets and I spent the afternoon fast asleep on our sleeping beds!
Now, that's the way to spend a Sunday afternoon!
See you tomorrow!

Lucky Holly, she is still a Grubby Puppy!
Hi Woofers!
Here we are again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.
We were up good and early this morning. The Missus made sure of that, banging and crashing about, stomping up and down the stairs as well as switching all the house lights on!
You see she had made an appointment with the doctors surgery to get stabbed with flu germs and needed the little car 'cos she had made the appointment for 09:00hr!
Soppy TM!
When she got there at 08:40hr she had to wait in a queue until nine before she was let in. Talk about 'Grumbly Old Pensioner' apparently the whole queue was grumbling, mainly because they were all 'Grumbly Old Pensioners'!
They all wanted to get in out of the cold and didn't seem to realise that the surgery opened at NINE!
Morning on the beach, the sun had got up and Holly said that we wouldn't see it again for some time 'cos the clocks go back tonight and we get an extra hour in bed!
We were having fun on the beach when a crow started to sound off claiming that the beach was his and we should clear off!
Now, Holly was threatened with a wash and haircut but the rain stayed away so Old Two Legs set about removing the 'Wild Life' bit of the garden that he let 'Go Wild' this year.
Unfortunately it went too wild and ended up creeping into the neighbours garden!
OTL set to work and soon found out that he really should get himself another pair of heavy duty gardening gloves 'cos the thorns kept on digging into him!
OTL was not happy!
Well, he finally filled two of the wheelie bins with weeds and then declared that he was too tired to do any more!
Now that was good 'cos it was gone two and we hadn't been out for our walk yet!
Down on the beach Freddy decided he really didn't want to go digging in the sand so, as soon as OTL crouched down to take a picture, Freddy sprinted along the sand and jumped onto OTL's lap saying 'Gissa Cuddle Daddy!'
Back home we had been invaded by Auntie Karen 'The Cat Lady' who had come to visit TM and play at sploshing the gesso all over the place.
Holly and I got a prezzie each in the form of a rather delicious chew!
Now that was a result!
OTL found Trevor the Frog in amongst the weeds and to keep him out of trouble, he let him go swimming in the pond!
Karen said she had seen a lizard on her door step and took a picture but when OTL 'enhanced' it on the computer it turned out to be a Common Newt or Smooth Newt!
It may be common but we could do with some newts in our pond!
Tonight we will be watching the F1 qualifying and then off to a looooong nights snooze, the sort that Archie Babe has mastered!
See you all tomorrow!
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

Busy doing Nothing!
Hi Woofers!
Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret here again!
We sort of love Friday's you see although it is a working day, it doesn't really feel like it's for working, more of a sort of 'Wind Down Day'!
All the woofers in this house do 'Wind Down' very well!
Today we got taken out this morning in the big car 'cos The Missus was winding down at her mates house sloshing the glue about and she wanted the car to take all the stuff!
That was OK, at least we won't be bothered by the roar of the jet powered vacuum cleaner!
Down on the beach the sea mist was hanging about but we did spot a Wormy Man who was marching up and down with his digging fork!
We shouted at him but he didn't seem to understand what we were saying!
Eric and May were all for cuddles 'cos the grass was wet with dew and that made their tummies all wet and damp! Mind you, they got down for the last bit where the grass was shorter and by then the dew had fallen off the grass.
Lunchtime it was rather warm and even Freddy enjoyed being on the beach, he was catching up on his winter tan while holly and I were digging holes!
Needless to say, no one put their paws up and in the end he had to get up and follow us back!
When we got to the football field, Freddy said that with one bound, from a standing start, he could get on top of Old Two Legs hat!
He even offered to bet all his chicken fillet treats for a week.
We didn't fall for it, we had seen this trick before!
OTL had to go out to see one of his customers so Holly and I stood guard up at the bedroom window until he returned. I must admit that I was feeling very drowsy 'cos the sun was shining on the window and it was soooo warm!
We are hoping that tomorrow will be the same 'cos OTL has plans to clean up the garden by getting rid of the weeds that have taken over the 'Wild Place' he had left up the end of the garden, only trouble is, all the wild life has gone 'cos the weeds have taken over and are marching into next doors garden!
If the weather is not ready for some garden work, Holly has been promised a bath and a hair cut!
Anyone guess what Holly is wishing for?
It was super to see Auntie Diana leave a message for Eric de Wimp! We did love the tale from Izzy about low flying woofers!
There is Auntie Sue off down in sunny Dorset, we've been there and that is where we found Dinosorearse foot prints!
See you tomorrow!
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.
Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret here again!
We sort of love Friday's you see although it is a working day, it doesn't really feel like it's for working, more of a sort of 'Wind Down Day'!
All the woofers in this house do 'Wind Down' very well!
Today we got taken out this morning in the big car 'cos The Missus was winding down at her mates house sloshing the glue about and she wanted the car to take all the stuff!
That was OK, at least we won't be bothered by the roar of the jet powered vacuum cleaner!

It's all better now!
Hi Woofers!
Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret here!
It's been a right day today, full of little surprises and stuff.
Let me explain.
This morning Holly and I were out with Old Two Legs for our walk down the beach. The ferrets May and Eric stayed cuddled up in OTL's arms for most of the walk and only decided to get down at the last hundred yards or so!
Not really a walk in my mind!
Back home OTL was cleaning the cages and doing some last little bits on the computer to get it all back working as it should.
First May and Eric had a rampage around the house plus they had a game of chase with OTL, all good fun.
They then went back into their cage for a slurp of Ferretone and a bit of chicken fillet, yum yum!
As soon as the cage door is shut they finish off the chicken and head for bed and a snooze.
Then it is Freddy and Wendy's turn for a rampage while OTL does the cage. You see? Organised or wot?
Well, today OTL's mind wasn't fully on what he was doing 'cos after cleaning the cage and having another game of chase, plus fiddling about on the computer, he picked up Freddy and Wendy and put them in the cage, but it wasn't their cage, he had put them in with Eric and May!
Without thinking, he shut the cage door and headed for the computer. Well, that was until he heard the scream of a pair of ferrets in mortal combat!
In fact what had happened was Eric, seeing a much bigger Freddy in his cage, ran away and dived under the blankets and pretended he didn't exist!
Freddy, being the friendly sort, crept into the bed that Miss May was stretched out in and gave her a ferret cuddle, which starts off with a bit of butt sniffing!
At that point, Miss May, feeling a new wet nose under her tail, let loose a massive Ferret Fear Fart that made everyone eyes water!
Then, just to push the point home, she sunk her teeth into Freddy whilst at the same time letting of a scream!
By then OTL had got back to the cage and dragged them apart before any harm could be done.
Freddy got grabbed and extracted and Wendy was picked up from the food bowl before she could find Eric, who was still pretending he didn't exist!
It was a case of cuddles all around with OTL, followed by a slurp of Ferretone and an extra lump of chicken for them all!
Naughty OTL, he really aught to keep his mind on one job at a time!
A little later he announced that he had finally sorted the computer, programmed some radios for a customer and finished mending some other radios for another customer!
Things were getting better!
Next it was lunchtime so off we went again. This time we didn't take Freddy and Wendy with us 'cos it had started to rain and the ferrets don't like the rain!
We didn't mind too much 'cos it was that fine misty rain and we had a doggy towel in the car if we got too wet!
Before we headed home we had to delivery all these radios to the customers and fill the car with petrol.
When we finally got back home we were beginning to be hungry and soon had finished off the scoff The Missus had prepared for us.
As a treat we each had a teeth cleaning chew to finish off our meal. Holly decided to leave hers until later but I soon polished mine off.
Then I had an idea!
Holly was on the sofa and I was by the back windows. I started woofing at a pair of cats I could see.
I couldn't really see them but Holly didn't know 'cos she leapt down and rushed to the window woofing her tail off.
As soon as she jumped down from the sofa I dashed around the other side of the chair, jumped up, grabbed the chew, jumped down and rushed up stairs and under OTL's desk where I made short work of the chew!
Next thing I knew, Holly and TM were hunting the chew and both decided that I had it!
As if!
I mean, there was nothing there!
All gone!
All I was doing is nibbling my Bonio Biscuit, and, I had been given that this morning!
I think it has been a good day today!
See you all tomorrow!
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

Blue Has Been The Air!
Hi Woofers!
Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret!
Now, we missed yesterdays blog, it wasn't our fault, honest!
You see, Old Two Legs got us all home safe and sound, then he got the ferrets sorted back into their cages and decided to have a look at the emails that have come in while we have been away.
He shouldn't have done that 'cos he got the surprise of his life!
It seems that someone has hacked his email address and has been sending thousands of spam emails all over the world!
What was worse, there were thousands being bounced back to OTL's mail box as 'Undeliverable'!
Wot was worse, his ISP (Internet Service Provider) shut down his account because of the large amount of messages being sent!
Yesterday, right up until ten past nine, he was at his desk trying to sort it all out. New passwords, new SMTP stuff and loads of technical stuff we have never heard of!
This morning when he fired up the system there were about twenty bounced emails in his box, so he got rid of them and tonight we are crossing our claws that he has managed to clear it all up!
The new computer is running Windows 10 and for some reason OTL is not happy with the security so that has been unplugged and he is back on the old computer that got a 'Hardware Upgrade' (A new tin box and a bigger power supply!)
Holly Chops has not been too happy today, she has something that makes her ear itchy and OTL thinks it may have been the shampoo he used when Holly had her hair cut at the college. Still, it is being washed out and cleaned, not that there is any wax or that but OTL keeps sloshing warm water in her ear and drying it.
Now, because it makes her ear wet and OTL dries it the best he can, to make sure there is nothing else in there, like ear mites, he has brushed some stuff called 'Thornit Powder' which is supposed to help get rid of the creepy crawlies.
There is one small problem, it sniffs terrible! Holly can't stand the stuff and keeps trying to brush it out with her back paw!
OTL says it won't get better if she keeps scratching, so he has devised a hat for Holly, made from a thing he wears when we are in Scotland, to keep the insects and Midges away from his neck!
She was kept on the cushion by OTL and finally she fell asleep only to wake up and not scratch her ear, mainly because OTL had just got a cup of tea and a couple of Choc Chip Cookies!
Not sure wot we got for dinner tonight but OTL has got green stuff!
We reckon he could end up wasting away!
See you all tomorrow!
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.
