Stu's sister Megan is staying with us and last night, we decided to introduce her little dog Walter to the ferrets. The ferrets have met a few dogs before; a little poodle who loves them and who they like pretty well, and a jack russell who would love to eat them and who they aren't so fond of. Anyway, it was a pretty funny experience.
After a few second of not knowing what the hell to do, Oliver and Cinder became pretty curious. Walt was super excited and wanted to sniff and lick and play with them. Oliver wasn't so sure about Walt but Cinder was all over meeting a new friend. She was pretty careful, and her tail was so puffy that it looked like a baby bottle brush (when ferrets get agitated, their tails go nuts) but she was still going in for the sniff!
At one point we let them on the floor together with Megan holding Walter's leash so that he couldn't pounce. It was fine until Walter decided to play a little rough with Oliver. haha. Walter wasn't trying to hurt him but he is so much bigger than Oliver! I put Oliver in my sweater to calm him down and Oliver was so freaked out that he actually stayed there for a few minutes. We got some great pictures and I am sure that we are going to try to get them used to each other since Megan is going to be here in Eugene all week. There may be more pictures to come!
If you look closely, you can see that Walter is kissing Oliver. And Oliver is not pleased.
