These boys are like little elephants when they run across the floor.
Roxas and Sora have a whale of a time with their tunnels. Rikku (our feral albino ferret) is feeling super brave today and wanted to come and explore. Sekhmet is still very much struggling with the idea of interacting with anyone. But she is making very slow progress. (This time with the video 😆 oops)
Playtime is definitely less frantic now there are only 3 kits lol
The moment Hathor became a ferret... she's clearly recovered more than I thought 😆
And lastly this morning wrote have Amunet. She is a very sweet older jill (at least 6 years old) again had been badly neglected, was emaciated, filthy and covered in battle wounds. Her scars on her head and neck are taking a while to heal, but are looking good now. She is just awaiting vaccination next week and then she has a wonderful new home lined up, providing she is happy in the environment. I'm sure she will be! As its a very lovely life x
Hopefully she will be even more white and clean by the time she goes ! The filth is taking a long time to get out of her coat.
Hathor is a wonderful little jill. She has been through the wars. Left in season to the point her hair had fallen out along her back end and head. She was emaciated, neglected and bore many many battle wounds from being attacked by her cage mates. She was not expected to survive.. but deserved the chance to try.
Today she is happy and healthy and playing so well. But she is scared by her experiences and therefore doesn't really want to have other ferrets near her. Her hair is finally growing back in and she is now just awaiting her vaccination next week. She still panics if you pick her up without her knowing its you as she's scared of being attacked.
She has a wonderful new home lined up. Where she will have her own space so she doesn't have to interact with other ferrets, but the option is there for her to have friends in the future if her mental scars heal.
All ferret owning knitters and crocheters will be familiar with ferrets obsession of wearing the "ball band".
Here you have Nepit modelling this years fashion label...
It doesn't matter what time you get your ferrets up for playtimes... they are always bouncing within seconds! I wish I had that energy when I woke up! (Or actually that level of energy any time of the day lol)
Couldn't sleep, so 5am playtimes it is (amd clearly I'm not really awake as forgot to attach video first time - now attached! )
Time for an update video on mum and babies! They are getting so big now and starting to get much more confident with exploring. They are in for their vaccinations this week and then hopefully ready to start going to their née homes in 2 weeks
So we have picked names fir the kits. We have decided on the fantastic beast characters! Thank you to everyone who submitted an idea, many will go towards future naming themes, but didn't have enough unique names (I.e. which we have not used before for other themes) for this size litter (especially on the female names side!)
Iorek finally got to meet some other ferrets today. He spent the first 5 minutes squeaking every time they looked at him... but then he started getting brave and doing run bys lol
