General Goings On

It's Saturday morning here at the zoo.  Everyone, including the humans, is lounging about having a very slow start this morning.

The kitties are currently all sprawled out on the bed.  All of them seem to be doing just great.  Ollie and Zoey need their ear meds but I am waiting til a bit later because they didn't get their dose last night until very late.  Aggie seems to be flea free - no bugs or "flea dirt" at all for the last two checks - thank goodness.

Ferrets are all bright a full of energy this morning.  Finn had his antibiotics - he loves those - and he seems to be doing quite well.  The others are flea free, ear mite free and seemingly quite happy and active.  Violet and Madison are on the bed under the covers having some girl talk.  Finn and Theo are eating and Clooney  is snoozing in his bed.

Emma is sprawled out on the bedroom floor having just consumed one of her favorites - Busy Bone.  Nigel is downstairs sleeping in his pen.  He has been out of his cage for a bit now - we bombed his room for fleas and I just have not had the time to get in there and wipe everything down - its on the list of to dos for today. I think little dude kinda likes the change of scenery every once in awhile.

So that's what Saturday morning looks like around here.  I hope yours is as easy and relaxing...
