Zoiks! I assume no people (or ferrets) were hurt..? If lightning is common in your area, you might consider putting a UPS between the outlet and your new computer, lest it suffer a similar fate. Either that or get a laptop.. A cheapo £5 surge protector isn't designed to stop lightning. note: it's always slow in apf around the holidays

hey hey! I remember that tagline from years ago when I first discovered this group! I've been lurking here for about a month, it's a lot quieter now then then, but it's really nice to see a familiar face! Louise the ferretlady swamp wrote:

Yeah, people come and go but I'm still around. Not sure if that's good or bad... There are other long-time posters here, and probably some long-time lurkers as well.

Well, SallyMae and Riley are doing well. SallyMae had a stomach bug and semi-diarrhea, and lost weight.... but now she's doing well. Riley is a fluffy fuzz butt and still carries his tail upright like a cat.
On the rat front, Laurie went to the Bridge today. She had pnuemonia and then aspirated a dose of Baytril. Other than the last couple of week she had a healthy life and lived just over 2 yrs. For those that don't know, a rat's lifespan is 2 -3 yrs, on average.
The rest of the zoo is fine. With the cold weather having finally moved in, everyone is acting like youngsters. Only the dogs have become couch potatoes. The Rabbits have their winter coats and look more like stuffed toys than living creatures. Piggie and the mice have plumped up for the winter. The birds... well, I tend to keep the house at about 70 for them... but they aren't spoiled
