Ferrets are obligate carnivores. Basically they have zero ability to process vegetables, carbohydrates, and fruits. Typically people feed their ferrets kibble. Which is an okay diet. If the owner reads the nutritional info on the kibble they can find pretty decent kibbles. Our kids are currently on a mixture of three kibbles, most of them are top quality. However kibble has a lot of setbacks, it damages the ferrets' teeth overtime and often times they contain an unhealthy amount of carbohydrates. Although many ferrets live long healthy lives on kibble but there are a lot of medical complications that could've been prevented had the ferret not been on kibble. The best diet for a ferret is a raw diet or natural diet. There is the option of commercial raw which is raw food made into freeze dried patties (kind of like astronaut/space food) and there is the option of actual raw meat. I've decided that it would be best to add some raw food to our kids' diets. For now I'm going to just do the dinner meals as raw. The rest of the day will be their regular kibble. The advantages to raw also include better teeth, less potty time, less smell, it's easier to find, cheaper, and more mentally stimulating for them. Well I started the raw introduction tonight and they didn't even notice the raw chicken pieces in their food. hehe Hopefully it continues to go well. Although I'm positive I'll get a ton of judgement and ridicule for doing this. Oh well, they'll be healthier and less like to get periodontal disease and insulinoma. Wish us luck!!!!
Usually I dye my hair dark for winter and then put highlights in for summer. Right now is a bit difficult though since it isn't summer and winter is almost over. I also get tired of dealing with the re-growth. My hair desperately needed a trim and I figured it was time for change. Thus I decided to dye my tips. I confirmed with boss that there is no rule against unnatural hair colors. Then I chose the color purple. They bleached my tips first. Then dyed it. It didn't turn out as dark as I would've liked, so I'll probably re-dye it. The bleaching part is the part I will NOT do on my own. Too difficult. Here it is:
