Germs

Did you know that ferrets can catch viruses from humans?  Evidently they can catch colds and flu and experience many of the same symptoms like fever, sneezing and runny noses.  Unfortunately the hubs picked up a bug on the plane during our vacation so he is on total Clooney restriction til he is feeling better.

Interestingly enough - some believe that hedgehogs are immune.  I have kept Nigel away from the hubs as well - just to be safe.  Kitties and Emma are not in danger of catching our germies but really he doesn't much feel like engaging with the critters anyway so they don't get much exposure.

Hopefully the hubby will be feeling better soon - I know Clooney misses wrestling with him....
