[Sca-cooks] Pet abuse

[Nancy Kiel]

Breakfasts were fun with one of our ferrets, since he would climb as close
as he could to the bowl of cereal and try to pull on the edge to get the
bowl (and its milk!) within eating range.

Never tease a weasel!
This is very good advice.
For the weasel will not like it
And teasing isn't nice.
