Gilbert's New Trick - CLICK HERE for the Pet Manual Forum Home Page
jacquie, kylie & gilbert
One more story.........especially for Nanny, to make sure she starts her day
with a real smile!

6-28-05 Last night when the kids were still out playing, I was online and
not paying too much attention, until I got up to get a drink of water and
saw the funniest thing I think I've ever seen a ferret do!

I usually use the little throw rug in the kitchen to pull the kids around on
the bare kitchen floor (give them 'rides'). Gilbert LOVES his rides!! Well,
when I went into the kitchen, there was Gilbert TRYING to give HIMSELF a
ride on the little throw rug!! He would run as fast as he could, pulling the
rug, then let go of it and jump on it real quick - then he'd just look
around as if to say "HEY, who is messing with my rug ride!?" 'why does it
stop as soon as I get on it??" ROFLOL I watched him do it two or three times
before I finally stopped laughing enough to go give the poor little thing
some rug rides. What a little nut I have on my hands here!!

this!!! Don't forget to add some Kylie stories too!! Those of us that have
been here long enough have heard about how smart she is!! :)

All of Kylie's shenanigans are on my old laptop and the power cord connector
is broken. A friend has said he will hardwire it for me (because I never
use the battery anyway), so hopefully when I get that done I can retrieve a
BUNCH of ferret information and Kylie stories. Right now I'm soo sad that I
didn't print them out and keep them!! :-(

Sanguine
oh I hate it when computers go wrong, glad your able to get online
though.
That is a very funny story...they sure do keep us amused. I love
watching their antic's, I swear at times you can hear their minds
whirling..lol as they think up new ways to have fun.

Actually, he's probably saying to you, "comeon, lady, it's time to give
the ferret his ride, so drop what you're doing (it can't be nearly as
important), and give me my ride now."

jacquie, kylie & gilbert
Yes, he knows he has me wrapped around his little paw, that's for sure!!

Holly, I started thinking today that Kylie's stories aren't lost after
all...........they are in the usenet archives!!! I have been busy putting
together all kinds of stuff (some I had forgotten myself!), so will post
some Kylie stories too :-) Thanks for asking. She's such a special
little girl. I never tire of telling the stories of my little sweetheart's
shenanigans! LOL
