December is Here

I can't believe that this is already the start of December!  Today has been a pretty laid back day - some work in the yard and some out door decorating.  It was cool but not too cold so I left the screen door open so the ferrets could see outside.

The ferrets have been quite good about the trees thus far.  They have been up since Friday and we have had 2 ornaments that have been knocked off.  Everything on the trees is shatter proof so its all good.  After watching them play last night I think they knock the ornaments off when they wrestle and not because they are playing with the trees - they don't seem interested in the trees at all.

All things kitty related seem to be good - Ollie seems to be feeling better so at this point unless something changes I think he is okay and won't need to go to the vet this week.  Fingers crossed.  The girl kitties are doing just fine.  Nigel is doing well - hanging out - he seems happy and healthy.

Miss Emma is not a fan of the pill she has to take every day for a month for her liver.  Its a chewable - but she won't chew it so it becomes a war of the wills to see if I can outlast her and hold her mouth closed til she swallows.  I do always win in the end but wow - she can be so stubborn.

All in all - no complaints here - we are gearing up for an insanely busy month.  Ah - the craziness of the holidays....
