Darby,
The Early Years

After keeping Darby so much while my son was in the field (82nd Airborne) I decided I wanted a ferret of my very own.   I missed Darby so much when Steve would take him back home, and the house seemed so empty without him.  We went and bought Lt. from a pet store, but about that time Steve decided he didn't have enough time to devote to Darby.  He gave him to us, and then we had two.  We have loved and treasured Darby ever since.  Below are some of his pictures as he was growing up.

This is my favorite picture of Darby.   This was made during the first year we had him.

This picture was featured recently in an article in MSN's Pet Forum.  Darby loved this stuffed seal until Lt. chewed it up.

Darby loves playing in plastic bags especially those with cutout handles!

Just Clowning Around!

During the Happy Years!

Funny how ferrets change their coats with the change of season.  Note that Darby's face had the complete white mask.  Now it is completely black across the forehead.  He doesn't look like the same ferret now that he did then.  No matter how he looks, I will always love him and my son, the two above.
