- We were at Pet Food Giant in New Brunswick recently, and they had some
- very nice photo Christmas cards with ferrets on them. Both featured
- sables. Unfortunately, they were the kind you buy one at a time and
- they weren't exactly cheap. :-/ But they were nice.
-
- BTW, this weekend we welcomed another little furball to our zoo.
- Fermi, a ten-week old (app.) male albino ferret, joined brother
- Archimedes and sister Tasha on Sunday. Tasha seems to enjoy
- her new playmate, but Archimedes is still sulking.
