I just found out two poodles that I bought were ferrets! Ay caramba! And guess what? To make each one resemble less a rat, they gave them steroids, making them both fat! They also fluffed their pretty fur just so around their heads. So how was I to know? Each one looked so much like a toy poodle they had me fooled - whole kit and caboodle! Our veterinarian has verified the facts for me. Those poodle dealers lied. And folks now say I should have realized the truth, which stared at me with beady eyes! Those ferrets sure run fast; I think I’ll buy two tiny leashes, or else I could try. . . to sucker someone stupider than me. Hey, buy one poodle; get the other free! For Janice Canerdy's Rhyming Couplets Poetry Contest * I wrote this April 22, 2013 after hearing a news story about a guy who actually believed he had bought a poodle when it was a ferret on steroids! See above for the link to the news footage!
