ALVIN IS HOME!!!!

I never want to live that again. That little snot went on an adventure of his life.

Turns out he was on the next street over, a couple of houses up from the alley. Apparently, Mr. Supervisor had decided that he had enough adventure and wanted human companionship. He walked up a driveway and said "HELLO" to a young man by jumping and hugging his leg.

At first he freaked the guy out. Then he figured out it was a ferret. So, he called his girlfriend out. She didn't want to let him roam around, and didn't want him to get cold since it was suppose to go down to 29 degrees last night. They found a small cage, and put him in it with a blanket.

Oh her way to bring her kids to a play group, she saw the signs and called. "My boyfriend found a ferret last night, over on Woburn." I think he is yours. I can't bring him right away I am going somewhere with my kids, but I'll call and bring him after." OK.

Well, I had to go to the vet, but Jane was here. And Jane was the one who got to see him first.

When I got to see him, I hugged and kissed him, and then told him I was going to kill him for scaring me so bad. He just looked at me and wanted down to go play with his cagemates.

So ends Alvin's Big Adventure.

And the moral is: There is no such thing as ferret proof, they are faster than you think, and always double check doors behind you to make sure they are closed with no escapees. Oh yeah, here is one more, always check garbage bags that are open before you toss them out. A ferret very well could have crawled inside and go on an adventure of their own.
