Bungle was the first and only ferret I will ever own.  He was the world to me.  I first got Bungle when I went away to college to keep me company, he did just that and more.  When I first saw little Bungle he looked different from all the other ferrets and other customers at the store were pointing and making fun of him.  I thought he was just the cutest thing I ever saw and I knew at that moment I had to get him. He had some health problems but I wanted him anyway.  I though if I can just give him a happy life, even for just a short time it was worth it, I would just not get too attached. From the very first night I had him I knew he was special.  He ran around my room exploring everything and when he got tired he crawled up on my lap and fell asleep.  From that moment on I was already "too attached".  He was deaf and partialy blind but that little ferret had a personality like no other, he would follow mw around and lay across my feet, and he loved to set up little stashes of candy or shiney objects in hidden places.  When my now husband met him he fell in love as well, calling him his son.  He was funny, cute, and playful, he always knew how to make us smile.  It's really hard not having him here but I know he lived a good long life.  The vet told me the average life span for ferrets is only 5 years, but despite all his health problems he still lived to be 6 1/2. It was all just so unexpected, we had him out playing one night and the next day he was gone.  He was energenic right to the end. His stocking still hangs on our wall this year where it always has.  I love him and he will never be forgotten!
