Good Bye Weazel Babies! :(

This is an extremely hard day for me. I have decided to give my sweet ferrets Lucy & Gizmo away to a new family. I have had these little guys for a year. One crazy Thursday night, David and I went to dinner at a Mexican restaraunt and had a few toooo many margaritas! While buzzing, we discussed the fact that I wanted an animal that I could name "Gizmo", because I thought that was the cutest name ever! Well David, feeling a little loose, decides that we should go to Pet SuperMarket and get ourselves a hampster and name it Gizmo. I thought this was a wonderful idea! We went home, and took a few more shots and headed off to Pet SuperMarket. David used to have a ferret that he loved when he was younger, so we walked over to see the ferrets. I of course decide that the one ferret that is jumping at us really "loves" us and wants us to take it home! David's response: "well he's probably going to get lonely, so we better get 2"! A few hundred dollars later we were on the way home with our 2 new friends "Gizmo & Lucy" and their HUGE ferret home! We eventually regretted this decision after I realized that ferrets are ALOT of work! They poop ALL the time, and EVERYwhere! I loved them so much though. If you have never been around a ferret you just don't know what amazing animals they are! I think we got the best one's ever born! They became 2 of my best friends over this year and I am really,REALLY going to miss them! I'm going to miss the ferret dance they do when you let them out of their cage! I am going to miss finding them curled up asleep in the most random places (my kitchen drawers, my dresser drawers, behind the kitchen cabinets, in a pan, inside the couch!) I am going to miss watching them play with each other and having them follow me everywhere around the house! But most of all I will miss the love they gave me and the love I have for them! One thing I won't miss is the POOP! And that is the reason I have to let them go! I live in a small house which the smell can take over very quickly! I plan on hopefully having kids in the next few years, and I cannot have a baby crawling around on floors where ferrets have gone to the bathroom. I will miss them terribly, but am thankful that I had them in my life at all! I have found a nice family to take them! They have 3 kids who are incredibly excited to meet Lucy & Gizmo, and I hope they have a good rest of their life to come! I love you & will miss you always!
