I look at this picture and laugh.  These three look like they are practicing how to slip out of the ocean under the cover of night.  Okay, maybe I'm the only one who thinks this, but the way the flash caught their eyes certainly makes them look like they are up to something.  The sable darling sporting a spiky new hairdo is my oldest male, Sasuke (his daddy named him, so don't blame me ;>).  It's hard to believe he will soon be two years old!  The "green-eyed" ferret waiting her time to strike is the alpha mamma of the group (and my smallest ferret), Tomo.  She turned 2 years old on Christmas Day.  The red-eyed mix is my best friend's ferret; I was ferret-sitting and decided to bathe them.  His name is Itachi -- which sets my boyfriend off in Naruto-related giggles.  This red-eyed guy is not yet a year and he beats up on all the others (I have 4 total), plus his big sister, who is a pit bull.  While I was taking this photo, he was leading the assault -- on me, since I was the only remaining piece of "dry land" in the bathroom at this point. 



This is Chouji.  He's a beautiful, loving, mellow boy who loves to pose for the camera.  He only has 3 canines, sadly, because he developed a cavity in one of them due to neglect before I got him.  (They only fed him mush, long after he should have been weaned onto dry kibble.)  In this photo, he was still a bit overweight, but he has now lost a pound due to better nutrition and fun playmates.  He's a year and half (give or take, since we don't know his birthdate).



Finally, this is my darling Nami.  She turned 1 on Christmas Eve.  I fell in love with her the second she climbed up my arm, bit my cheek, and then just hung there.  Such spunk!  She is my most active ferret and the only one brave enough to steal Tomo's treats -- even though she won't eat them.  She just likes to start fights.  She is also a bit of a makeover artist, since she keeps changing colors on me.  When I first got her, she was a champagne.  Then she became a silver mitt.  Then she shifted to a light silver blaze.  Right now, I have to call her a mix.  I'm hoping she'll settle down and become a panda.  She is the only one of my four who has ruby glints to her eyes.  The other three have black eyes.

Well, I said I was going to post about my angels, so now I have.  I can ramble about each one for all eternity, but I shall stop here.  Maybe I'll find some inspiration soon so I can finish ADABN 14, but right now, I want to watch my Brit-coms on PBS.
