Ged (Zion)
I’m Homed
Progress: Ged can get upstairs but he's very nervous going down thus requiring an escort 🙂 - I'm sure he will have sorted it by the end of his hols. He doesn't like the slippy flat flooring like vinyl (bathroom) and tiles (kitchen) but it helps that we've got mats down. He invited us to play yesterday - how fabulous! Loves company. Is a ferret - interested in everything (evidence the hot foil wrapped bananas that had not long come off the barbecue - don't worry he didn't eat them, we took them back, he was just taking a look, lol). He will lie anywhere that you are and loves a stroke / cuddle. He's very well mannered with his food - eating only as much as he wants. Today all the boys will be having a little shower in the garden as it's so warm, plus getting their teeth brushed - maybe just a finger brush for Ged to start with to see how he copes. Then it will be a trip to the Country Store down the road for the best pigs ears in Staffordshire. Ah, he's so lovely - his new family will absolutely adore him. He can't wag his tail (although you can see he is trying) but his eyes say it all. If he could speak he would be sending kisses to his sad mummy and telling her that he's alright and not to worry. He's such a delightful little chap - as Ruth would say: a poppet!

Well, he's definitely settled himself in.... to my bed!!!!! lol. I sat up to see if he was alright and up he jumped.. didn't have the heart to move him as he'd called right down all nice and cosy.. so at 4.30 in the morning (I couldn't sleep anyway) I've been sat at the computer working. Now he feels safe with us, he can have the cot mattress right next to me on the floorfor tonight - that way I get to keep my half of the bed, lol. Alison
