Cathy was killed by an experimental chemotherapy treatment. And this site is just about her and I.

That's a ferret

One day I was taking a long lunch and playing hooky from work when I wandered into a long-vanished pet shop. Inside was one very bored ferret who was just delighted to have me pay some attention to him. I was captivated. Later, I brought Cathy up to see that same ferret, who was on his way to a new home.
So this ferret is not that ferret.
This is, however, our first ferret named "Squeak" because, well,  he squeaked. Some ferrets hiss, most have a cluck, some bark. Squeak squeaked. He was followed a few months later by Watson (who was a blind rescue ferret), Missy (who hissed and growled), and then by Blackie, Roxy, MJ, Tiger, Sleepy, Marie, Digger, Flash, Gadget, Gizmo, Skipper, Bugsy, and Sparky-but not all at once. We got Squeak in 1987, and said goodbye to Bugsy and Sparky in 2006.
