Still sorting out the logistics of purchasing a mongoose. Not getting much help from the local pet stores though – they all think I’m trying to pull their legs… If I could get the blasted mongoose, SOMETHING would be pulling on their legs – THAT’S for sure!!

To be fair, my urgency has diminished, what with the lack of apparent rattlesnakes in and around the home. Although, I shouldn’t relax my guard just because there’s snow on the ground outside. What if an ALBINO rattlesnake tiptoed in from outside, while I had the garage door open??

I must remain ever vigilant, as Lord, Master, and Protector of this domain…

Now, where does a person have to travel, to find mongooses (rarely “mongeese”) indigenous? Europe? Asia? Nebraska? I don’t believe they are native to any part of Canada.

So much on my plate…

Chow for now!

Hawaii. They have mongoose in Hawaii,althought the locals call it squirrel, which it is definately not. Did you know they are not natural inhabitants of that environment? Do you know the story of how they got there? Do you know that it is illegal to have a snake in Hawaii?

I do, but I've never claimed to be normal.

What?? Are you saying that there are real, live, wild mongooses walking around the streets of Hawaii?? Does the Tourism Board alert visitors to this??

And how DID they get there? I always associated mongooses with Rudyard Kipling and India. I'm rusty on my geography, but I think that would be one heck of a swim for a mongoose!!

Sheesh...
