April 18, 2025.  How about a non-blurry photo of an awake Lily for today’s ferret fix? Except when she’s receiving scritches, Lily has two speeds: sleeping and zooming.  Sometimes I can get her to pause mid-zoom long enough to get a picture. For every picture like this, there are about 50 or so blurry ones.   Small brown ferret with white and brown mask looking up at the camera.

After trimming Elsa’s nails at the vet, I put her in the carrier hammock and said, without thinking, “Stay there a moment.” And she did. She stayed like that, blinking up at me, waiting for me to say “Okay” to signal she could get up now.  Realizing what just happened, I first took a picture and then gave her the okay. Elsa was not a very ferret-like ferret in so many ways. This picture is likely from 2016 or 2017.

Finding Sophie tucked under blankets. Cute yawn!  Pictures from April 16, 2024

A bit blurry but still cute! Sophie is exploring the daybed, peeking through the slats to see what I’m doing at my desk. Later she brought her pink turtle up there, tucked it under the covers, and then curled up next to it to sleep.
