The ferret thread formerly known as "Bringing food into cabo" lol

Look! It's Pierre - Nibblet's french cousin. He came for the wedding and stayed for 2 months!

And, yes, another reason why Jean Marcus isn't allowed to babysit Nibblet. He always sucks him up into the vacuum!

Oh, i totally want to go. I'd have to fly though. And I was invited to a wedding in Ohio a few weeks after that I'm not going to. So it would be completely wrong of me to still make a trip to Ohio to see ferrets.

Is there another ferret bash later? That would be awesome if BDW club ferret had their first annual meeting.

Erin and Morgan-- yes, anyone can attend an AFA-sanctioned ferret show...everyone is welcome, even if you don't have ferrets. The Ohio show is a 7-hour drive for me one way -- FI usually stays behind to watch our guys, and I only take two along to show since I'm judging the specialties the whole day...just too far and expensive for me to go this year, unfortunately -- and w/my guys getting so old and not being able to be vaccinated for shows, I just can't justify going if I can't show, too.

Here's a link to the remaining AFA shows for 2008 American Ferret Association: Ferret Shows & Events

Too bad you couldn't coordinate your friend's wedding with the show and meet up with Erin for the Columbus show, Morgan -- it really is a great show...ferret breeders, ferret shelters, and lots of great ferret vendors, too. There are usually about 400+ ferrets at this show and our home show in York, PA...very cool!!

And at the Columbus show you'd be able to see your FIRST ferret dress-up live -- as they usually have a costume contest while the real competitions are going on throughout the day.
