Olympic Ferret Playtime

Chin Soon Takes The Gold

Nyssa started out looking pretty good on Tuesday evening. Chin Soon even got to play with her a little, a small game of chase. Nyssa ran for no more than 15 minutes and spent the rest of the night curled up in the blue soft tube. She seemed fine all things considered.

I had Energizer weasels Wednesday night. At the end of the Olympic coverage (12:30 AM) I had to put the two that were still running, Ella and Chin Soon, to bed anyway because I was beyond wiped out. Ella did take one nap. Chin Soon was literally non-stop, though she was pretty mellow at the end as even she has limits. Still, for energy and endurance Chin Soon takes the gold medal.

Last night I wasn't feeling well and the ferrets got out later than normal. We watched figure skating again but playtime really wasn't of Olympic proportions. The ferrets are used to a certain schedule and when they don't get it they don't run for as long. Chin Soon and Zephyr was there highest energy weasels. Nyssa, as usual, played the least. Nyssa could easily win a gold medal if eating gravy was an Olympic sport.

Summer flies in this evening and I am hoping her return into Nyssa's life stimulates my oldest ferret. I'm sure the others will be thrilled to see her as well.
