Before I can remember, I started to love animals. Big ones, small ones.. it doesnt matter. They are all so insanely cute! The first animal I got extremely interested in, was horses. I thought they were amazing. They could be so calm and quite, but the moment after they could be so full of strength and courage. From I was a little girl I wished to get horse every time for christmas and for my birthday. That never happend. But now I understand why.. thats one big fucking animal with a lot of responsibility.

So instead of a horse.. I got my first animal when I was 6 years old. A rabbit. He was really small, black.. and we called him Snoopy. It was actually my dad that came up with the name, since me and my older brothers were struggling trying to come up with a cool name for the cute little rabbit. We had Snoopy for almost 7 years, and he became a very special rabbit. He acted just like a human, I’ve never seen a rabbit act like Snoopy did. It was so freaking funny to see all the strange things he did, and the day he died was one of the worste I’ve been through. He became very sick with the age, and we desided to let him go.. So now he’s up there in animal heaven. Love you S <3
The next animal we tried out, was a cat. Even thought we knew that my dad, my oldest brother and I was allergic to cats. So that didn’t go that well. After a month or two we had to give Tassen away. My dad and I are allergic to almost all animals there is, so it was really hard to find out what kind of animal we could have at home.
When I was around 16 I started to read about ferrets. The more I read about the funny little animals, the more I started to want one for myself. Everywhere on the Internet, they said that ferrets were very allergic friendly. So after a lot of discussions at home, I finaly got one! I was so super happy! I named her Nala, and she was one of the cutest, most calm ferret I had ever seen. Most people think that ferrets are big rats who smell like shit and bites everybody that gets close enough. Well, I have to say that that’s not true. Ferrets normaly smell like sweet honey, but if people don’t wash and clean their cages.. and they are locked inside there the whole day.. of course they are going to smell like shit. The male ferrets smell worse then the females, but most of the smell goes away after you have castrated them. Nala was the nicest ferret ever. Unfortunately Nala got sick on 23. of December. We went to the wet and he gave her medicin and said that she would be fine again.. but my dad woke me up early Christmas Eve, and told me that she had died over the night. That was the worste Christmas ever, i couldnt be happy and open presents like everything was fine and ok.
After some months I hated being alone, so I started looking for a new ferret.. and I felt in love with this dark brown ferret in Oslo. After a lot of discussions again, I decided to get her. Trulte, who I named her, was the opposite of how Nala was. Trulte can be sweet and calm and cuddly.. but most of the time she just wants to play and she is HYPER! She is also a little bit afraid of strangers, so she bites them almost every time. But she does not bite me, so I’m happy. She is the cutest thing ever, and I love her so freaking much. The bad thing is that I don’t know what to do with her when I leave for folkhigschool after summer. My mom won’t have her at home.. so if I don’t find someone to watch her, I have to give her away. And I don’t want that..

The thing is that animal is so much better then people, in so many different ways. An animal will never let you down like a person can. They look up to you and respect you if you treat them well. When I have grown up and got my own place and family, I will have so many animals I can.. and I want to live at a big place, so they can run and play outside.
Love, Malin
