As I suspected - the baby ferrets were so very excited about Christmas decorating. They played downstairs for hours checking out bags and boxes. They are interested in the trees but so far, no climbing. Not sure if that will change once the trees have ornaments and are lit. I have decided that the majority of ornaments this year will be the unbreakable type and the breakables will be somewhat heavy duty just in case the little ones get exuberant. Makes my heart happy to hear those joyful little ferret squeaks and all of them - even Madison and Clooney were happy today.
Miss Emma has missed out on decorating so far today - she has spent the day at the vets office having a spa day. It was her prize for winning the Halloween costume contest. In addition to being pampered with a bath, pedicure and Furminator treatment she had all of her annual stuff done - physical, blood work, vaccinations, etc. Everything looked pretty good with the exception of an elevated liver number. As a result she is going to take a pill a day every day for the next month to see if they can get it to come back down. Her prescription is called Denamarin and hopefully that will fix her elevated level. Her ALT (alanine transaminase) level was high - 297 - normal is 10 - 100. Her GGT (gamma glutamyl transpeptidase) level was also high 11 - normal is 0 - 7. Fingers crossed this is fixable and not the start of something icky like liver disease.
Emma truly was pampered today - she got the furminator treatment twice today - just look at how much hair they got off my girl...the first image is pre bath and the second is after her bath. She looks amazing and smells nice too!! Thanks to the office for sending me hairy pics! :)
