Sorry about that. Just too many things going on in my life. If you follow me on Facebook you know I am back on the road with three other critters, Rosie, Tankaju, and Precious, I lost Marcuz in Dec of 2017 a couple of days before Christmas. Marylin turned 5 on the fourth of July this year.

First, let's get the legal stuff out of the way. I was not compensated for this review. I use this service personally and all opinions are 100% mine.
We live in a busy and hectic world. Many of us working outside the home and taking our kids, whether they be four footed or two legged, to some activity. Trying to remember how much pet food is left or the cost can be difficult.

Legalizeferrets.org has been working hard to get the ban lifted. Just recently the California Fish and Game listened to those that supported lifting the ban and the few who wished to keep the ban in place. While the meeting ended with the ban staying in place.

Okay so we made it to Blog Paws Thank
you for having us. We got to meet Marjorie from @DashKitty and
attended a couple of interesting sessions. Marylin was part of
Pawject Runway and rocked the Elizabeth Taylor Diva look. We didn't
win but we had a lot of fun.
This was a first conference for the
kitties both of who did wonderful to the point that Boyd was happy to
perch on top of the Johttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07066386769910340906noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4600419219490344993.post-52323256969452073192016-06-23T13:34:00.000-05:002017-05-08T23:18:24.389-05:00The New Enlightened Ferret
As I said the blog is going to take a
new direction. While I am not completely sure of that direction it
will deal with living on the road with pets. One of our great
inspirations is Go Pet Friendly. They have some awesome links and go
a lot of different places with their dogs. So we are hoping we can be
like them in some ways but because of the uniqueness of my pets it
will be different.

But while that will still be part of the blog the Universe has decided that it should go a different direction.
It will become more of a traveling blog as we now live on the road full time and will be incorparte the ferret's facebook mini blog here.

I know it has be a long time since I've
posted anything about ferrets and I am sorry for that. I can't say
I'll be better about posting as I don't know if I will have much to
say. I know this is pet dental month and others have posted some
great information about brushing your pet's teeth. I've done a couple
of posts in the past and they can be found Here and Here.

Things don't always go as planned but most of the time it has been surprisingly happy mishaps.
Since the last post we have traveled to Kentucky back to PA and then to Ohio and landed back in Kentucky for a bit. After the last day of work in Eau Claire, PA the crew and I headed to Kentucky to see my friend C.

Hooman’s do not take what other hoomans say at face value when a crime is committed yet when it comes down to us being accused there is no real investigation if a hooman states they saw us do something then it has to be true even Johttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07066386769910340906noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4600419219490344993.post-57118710431779392552015-02-01T23:00:00.000-06:002017-05-08T23:16:17.680-05:00Ferret Updates
Wez been busy trying to keep updated on all the ferret news in the last weeks. First up is about the infant that was supposedly attacked by ferrets.
At this moment wez still trying to find out if a necropsy was done on the ferrets and cats that were euthanized as that would prove or disprove the innocence of ferrets.

The News stations and papers do not seem to have any more information than when they first reported the incident.
Iz did find out that the ferrets and two cats were euthanized. The article only said the ferrets were being tested for rabies.
