FerretNews Website! I've just put up a new (yes, new) FerretNews newsletter. Go check it out at this link: http://www.ferretnews.com/issues/ferret-news-111.html Also, I've put up some stuff on Ebay, if you're looking for some fun ferret-related holiday gifts. Yes, it's still a little early for holiday shopping, but, really, is it ever too early? http://myworld.ebay.com/modernferret Mary Labels: ferret gift items, ferret news website Monday, May 05, 2008
Ian Hunter And Now For Something Completely Different ... This has nothing to do with ferrets. But it is a worthy cause: Reposted from MySpace with permission and enthusiasm! Hi friends and Ian Hunter fans! Here's hoping that you will take a minute to sign a petition that myself and good friend, fellow Ian Hunter/Mott fan Constance (from US) have set up. Please feel free to direct anyone and everyone you know to this petition. Thank you. Mary Labels: ian hunter, mott the hoople, rock n roll hall of fame Friday, December 28, 2007
I started work on a new book yesterday. It's in the early planning stages, but I hope to have it ready for the summer or fall. It's not a care book, it's a fun book. I think ferrets need more fun books. I'm going to ask my cousin Rosemary to illustrate it for me. I don't know if she's ever drawn a ferret, but she's a very talented artist, so I'm sure it's something she can do. In the meantime, I keep thinking about how much I miss my little furry friends. Right now I have Milo the cat to keep me company, but I have to keep a respectable distance because I am a little allergic to cats. Milo isn't my cat; he's my cousin Amanda's cat. But he's one of the friendliest kitties I've ever met. I have quite a few projects in the pipeline now, most are not ferret related. But I feel the pull. I always feel the pull. --Mary Sunday, December 23, 2007
Ferrets and the Holidays A quick reminder that the holidays can be a dangerous time for ferrets. Check out this article on the Ferret News website for ways to keep your ferret safe: http://www.ferretnews.com/articles/ferret-holiday-safety.html Best wishes for a safe and happy holiday! --Mary Sunday, December 09, 2007
Check Out Ebay! Oh, boy! I found a couple of neat things yesterday and I'm putting them all up on Ebay. So go check out my Ebay auctions. There's one of those cute little bean-bag stuffed ferrets we used to sell (I found two of them!) and one Ikea ferret (that'll be going up for auction later today). These make great ferret gifts for the holidays. So take a look at my Ebay auctions: http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZmodernferret I've also still got Super Monster Packs (28 back issue of Modern Ferret) for sale for $52 (includes Priority Mail shipping) on ferrettradingpost.com, but you can look on Ebay and get one for less! Happy bidding! --Mary Labels: ferret stuffed toy, ferret toy, ferrets, plush ferret Friday, November 30, 2007
Holiday Preparations! OK. It's been a while and I'm wickedly busy with trying to keep up everything. But in case there are some people reading this, I want to let you know about a few things you might want to get for your ferrety holidays.
Also, check out the new items in the Ferret News Gift Sections! Plush ferret toys! The perfect gift for the ferret owned friend who doesn't have enough ferrets! Also check out my Ebay auctions to see some cool ferrety things for the holidays. Here's a relevant article about ferret holiday safety. Keep those little fuzzies safe and happy this holiday season -- Joy to all! Here's something else: A new web site! It's still in the development stages, but you can have a look around and see what you think: GoodFerretkeeping.com --Mary Friday, September 21, 2007
I know it appears that I have fallen off the planet but, I assure you, I'm right here. I just spent a month in London staying with friends. No ferrets. But I did find some cute ferret figurines while I was in Berlin. (I also got to the Berlin Zoo to see the little polar bear Knut, but that's another story.) The German word for ferret is "fretchen." But apparently I don't pronounce it correctly, because not many of the Germans I met seemed to know what I was talking about. Anyway, I'll get some pictures up somewhere at some point. In the meantime, I still have some things to sell on the Ferret Trading Post web site. I have a limited number of Super Monster Packs that still have Issue #30 in them (that was the albino ferrets issue of Modern Ferret). I'm not sure how long they're going to last, especially since I slashed the price down to $52.00. When the last of those Super Monster Packs is gone, that'll be it for Issue #30. All the tons of magazines that were in the barn at my parents' house are now gone. On another ferret-related note, I'm looking into writing a book similar to the book I wrote for Howell Book House back in 1995 (The Ferret: An Owner's Guide to a Happy Healthy Pet  ). Obviously, it will be written from scratch and have current information. I'm also toying with the idea of writing a book for younger people who are just learning about ferrets.That's about all for right now. If you're looking for something to do, check out my ebay auctions. You can get a good deal on some of the ferret stuff I have on the Ferret Trading Post site. Look here for the latest auctions. --Mary |
