Gabriel, DON'T

[weaselmom]

So far today:

Gabriel, don't climb the fireplace bricks.
Gabriel, don't hip-check your sister into the wall.
Gabriel, don't unplug the TV converter.
Gabriel, don't uninstall the carpet.
Gabriel, don't steal my fork.

And it's only 12:35. We've been up for half an hour.

Gabriel says "WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"

He is like Stitch. He has no other purpose than total devastation on a universal scale. I don't think he can help himself.

Sounds like my day but not as detailed....I just say a lot of "RYO NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

And I don't know about you, but I get *tired* of saying "NO!" all the damn time. I never had this relationship with any other ferret.

Same here. I LOVE Ryo Ohki to death, however she has been the most challenging ferret I have ever had out of 7 I have owned. I had hoped she'd grow out of it but she is as crazy as ever. She has learned "NO" and realizes what it means however she will still press my buttons and put her teeth on my ankle gently to see if she can get away with it. It's clever but annoying! She's such a little shit. And she is into everything and gets on top of things no other ferret can get on to. In a way she is very talented! She also has been the only one who can 'sneak' out of the baby gate that blocks the hallway to the rest of the house (kitchen etc) and if it's not really tight against the wall, I swear she can flatten herself into paper thing ferret and slip out. It's nuts. OH! Did I mention she is also the only ferret I have ever had that tries to SWIM in the toilet?!?! >.< So I have to keep that lid down because I am afraid she will drown but she has fallen in 3-4 times and she will jump out right away.

But I love her so much ^_^ I am glad I did get her because I am 100% sure if she'd gone to a home where people were not experianced with ferrets, she'd be in a shalter by now or euthanised, or worse. She definitally needs to have the label "ADVANCED levbel ferret ownership only" on her!!! I think both Gabriel and Ryo are only for experianced ferret people ^_^

YES!!! You are exactly right. I wonder what it is about the occasional ferret that makes them pack so much mischief into such a small package? My other kids have all been a little ferrety but nothing like this.

You poor thing! Gaby has tried to drink out of the toilet but has not actually gone swimming!

Oh lord. Mommy's Little Genius just gently slid backwards off the couch onto a heap on the floor, upside down, like syrup or something.

If the icon is a pic of Gabriel, he looks like one baaaaad little bandit.

That's him. He is entirely adorable, smart as hell, and a brazen and cheeky little guy. He is also wearing me to a nubbin.
