So yesterday I got home from work and went into the ferret room and could not locate SoCo anywhere... I started to panic as I was searching through his toys and bedding and then went to search the entire apartment but as I opened the door, there he was just chilling outside of the door like "What the heck are you doing Ma, you made my room a mess!!"
I couldnt stop coddling him!
I know when the wind blows if the window is open in the ferret room, the door will blow open because my apartment is ghetto and they just putty and paint over problems instead of fixing them so we set up a temporary rope/rubberband thing on the outside of the door to keep it from happening until we have a chance to put in a better outside locking system... I guess the wind blew really hard and opened it enough for him to get out. This was obviously dangerous for TONS of reasons. I shut the window and told my fiancee do not open the window back up.
He must've forgotten and opened it before he left for work.
Last night I left Mojito and Kahlua free roam in the ferret room while SoCo got the cage, I wanted to change it up to keep them from being jealous. I left for work this morning, the window was still shut. I got home from work this evening, it was open. It must've been windy again today because I couldnt find them in their room. Mojito was standing outside the door when I opened it to search the apartment but I couldnt find Kahlua. I started to look around and when I went into the kitchen I knew where she was. There is a hole in the bottom of the cubbord where it meets the floor and we had covered it but the coverings were all torn away and strewn around the kitchen floor. The apartment hasnt been fully ferret proofed because the have their own room and there has never really been a reason for it, since theyve never been able to get out while we werent home before. Now that the weather is nice and its become an issue I am going to have to take precautions. Anyway, I found her ASLEEP in the plastic bags. IN THE PLASTIC BAGS!!! I was mortified, she couldve died!! Also, she had torn into a bag of those wipes you use to clean wood, the dust wipe thingies... in the yellow packet, i forget what theyre called. Its ziplock but it was pulled open and some of the wipes were pulled out nothing was eaten though. It was like she pulled them out and was like ewww and then left them alone. I cant believe this.
Number one I am soooo mad at myself and number two I am going to KILL him when he gets home, this wouldnt/couldnt have happened if he hadnt opened the freaking window! God I feel aweful, I hope shes all right.
