Time is a bit tight around here right now, but I wanted to post some pictures of the now healthy boys on Mother’s Day. Liam’s poor scraped knees have completely healed. Both boys and Kevin have recovered from the tummy bug that we had visiting last week. (And our house has returned to Full [...]

Which Thing Just Didn’t Happen Here?
Posted in Kieran, Liam, events of the unpleasant variety, ferrets on May 7, 2008 | 11 Comments »
A lot of events have occurred here at the Menagerie House in the last 24 hours. Care to guess which of the following did not happen?
1. Liam tested the fractile strength of sidewalk concrete. That experiment was brought to a premature conclusion by a trip the ER for X-rays on both knees. Yes, both.
2. I [...]
Stormy 11/1999 - 3/10/2008
Posted in Seasons, ferrets, pictures on March 12, 2008 | 11 Comments »
We said good-bye to one of our ferret friends this morning. She’s been with us since she was a baby, from before we had human babies. We miss her. But she had a wonderful life full of TLC and lots of hugs and playing, and now we have wonderful memories.
As we were burying her [...]
10 Months Of Brotherhood
Posted in brothers, ferrets, milestones, pictures on January 23, 2008 | 12 Comments »
I fell off the track with these “Brotherhood” posts - too much confusion over the holidays, I guess. At any rate, here we are at Ten Months of Brotherhood…
(how could it possibly have been ten months already???)
Here is the Big Brother with his favorite ferret friend, Pippi. Who, by the way, gave us a fright [...]

The sweet white ferret in the picture above, Jeff came to us over a year ago from a shelter along with his buddies Penny and Pippi. We didn’t know if he would make the transition to our house at the advanced ago of 7+, but he did. He’s given us a great deal of love [...]

It’s the usual bimonthly round-up of brotherhood pictures…
We are all about bad humor around here, so I must show you my “bug-eyed” son…
And look! The Super-Bug glasses open for indoor use!
Last weekend we went to the 1st birthday party of Violet, the little sister of one of Liam’s best friends. Her mom, Lisa, is one [...]
Bits and Pieces of Random Craziness
Posted in Kieran, Liam, cute conversations, everyday stuff, ferrets, pictures on June 25, 2007 | 9 Comments »
Another of my famous catch-up posts. As usual this is motivated by wanting to post but having less than ideal brain power to compose something with flow, or even minimal cohesion. As usual there is no order to this post; the order of subjects is determined by what sparks my brain when…
Houdini is balding again. [...]
Penny, 2003-2007
Posted in Penny, ferrets on April 14, 2007 | 10 Comments »
We adopted Penny from a local ferret shelter last August. She was a sweetheart of a ferret who had been placed at the shelter along with her brothers, Jeff and Pippi, because their owners were expecting a human baby and “couldn’t keep” the ferrets. Well, then, who better to adopt the three than a family [...]
