Well there’s no stopping Alison Parker!  After completing “Jake & Jasper, A Ferret Tale”, she is now embarking on another movie called “The Ferret Squad”.

The story is about a teenage boy, again played by Connor Stanhope, who’s moving to California with his father. The fly in the ointment is that he has a ferret called Digger and, as we all know, ferrets are illegal in California!

For those of us living in the Antipodes, summer is well and truly among us and especially here, in Western Oz, it’s hot hot hot.

I know many ferret owners know the dangers of ferrets and heatstroke but for some of you newbies out there, please be careful if you have ferrets and they live outside in cages. Make sure their cages are under some kind of shade and if you see your ferret panting, you should freeze a couple of 2L bottles full of water, wrap them in towels and put them in the cage for your ferret to lie against. If you can put a fan outside to blow air on the cage, that’d be helpful too.

I hope you (and your ferrets, of course!) all had a wonderful Christmas and I really do hope that this coming year will bring only happiness, peace, prosperity and good health to everyone.

I must say that reading the news makes me want to climb into bed and throw the covers over my head in despair but then one or all of the ferrets come up and and start doing their silly weasel wardance on the blanket and I just crack up.

That’s what I absolutely adore about having ferrets

Here’s wishing you all a wonderful Christmas and I hope that 2012 will be a very happy and healthy year for you and all your ferrets.

As always, I would just remind you to please be careful during the Yuletide celebrations and watch out for your ferrets so that they don’t get into trouble

We all know how mischievous our ferrets can be and their lack of fear can sometimes lead to dangerous situations, so keep your babies safe and that’ll save your hair from going grey – LOL!

Hrmmmm, let me contemplate that question for a moment!

Yes, I think it’s the fault of the owners who have grown too complacent about their ferrets! LOL!

I heard a noise in the kitchen earlier this morning and when I clumped (I’m on 2 crutches after my knee operation) to the doorway, I was confronted with this sight …

I should have guessed that after Dash’s little game of tip the box that the buzz might have been spread around to the others and they’d think it was a mighty fine game to play, especially since mommy dearest can’t really bend down too well to sweep the mess up
