Here Dad is holding Titch and Frank. When Pinkie died, Mum told me a woman knew of a ferret at an animal rescue requiring a home.
  I telephoned, then visited the T L C refuge were I was shown Frank. I liked him from the start with the patch work of colours that formed his fur coat. Also he was a neuter. His tail being short  added to his comical look.  
  When I took him home, Mum thought how funny he looked. I must admit he seemed to be bit of an odd ball.
  He was always ready for a game. I  recall sitting in the armchair and feeling a thud against my hand as he leapt at it. Dad had fetched him in, catching me unaware.
 Titch and Frankie  would get along very well, but Titch would get fed up with his ‘attacks’ and  send him packing.
