Val saw her little brother, Teddy, in the street.
“Val, guess what I’ve got!” he said.
Two small eyes looked at Val from a furry face.
“What is it?” she asked.
“It’s a ferret! He is cute. My friend Eric gave him to me. He’s really friendly. Eric says ferrets are the best pets in the world.”
“He is cute,” Val said.
The ferret had a long neck, and its fur was brown.
Its bright eyes looked out from a darker brown face, like a small raccoon. Val loved it.
“Can I take it?” Val asked.
“Sure. But he’s my pet. Val, and don’t forget about it!”
Val took the animal. “He’s great, Teddy,” she said.
“You said Eric gave him to you? Why?”
“Because his mum didn’t like it. She says it looks like a furry snake with legs.” The ferret looked like a mink, long with small paws and a small head.
“Does dad know about him?” Val asked.
“Eric gave him to me today, so I didn’t have time to ask dad. But he is a super ferret, I’m sure dad will say it’s okay. Where is dad?”
“He went to the Steppler farm,” said Mrs Racer. “What’s that? That’s a weasel!”
“It’s not a weasel, Mrs Racer. It’s a ferret,” Teddy said. “He’s my new pet.”
“It’s a weasel,” Mrs Racer said, “and weasels are bad animals! They eat hens!”
“It’s not a weasel,” Val said. “Ferrets are different. They don’t do all the bad things weasels do. Teddy’s friend Eric gave it to him. He’s soft and furry like a cat.”
