and then there were three...

We had to put one of our ferrets, Natasha, down today. The vet thinks she had a cancer.

Tasha came to us a little over two years ago and was, we believe, a littermate to Boris, one of our males. She was always a bit of a loner at playtime, keeping to her own little game of moving small stuffed toys from place to place and hiding them. This is nesting/mothering behaviour. She wanted to be a momma so much she even convinced herself (hormanally) that she was pregnant for a time. She was always very sweet natured.

She will be missed.
