Ok, sugar. I know I said something of this the first time, but you should definitely stick to a script. And perhaps even set up a backdrop. Those are simple to make. Just paint, and some card bored, and hell, a bit of fabric, and Vuala, you have yourself a puppet backdrop.

The boxes shouldn't be hard to find. Any convenience store tosses them out like candy. And as for paint, you can find them at any simple craft shop, such as Michels, or whatever. Any basic color should do, like light gray, black, or hell, sky blue, with another box, painted wood brown as a "ferret desk". You'd get a lot more attention if you payed attention to the details...

And... I know your going for a plushy effect, but the new puppet, you might want to have her practice marionette movements. (It's a lot simpler than it sounds, I myself know how to do it quite easily.)

Last but not least, I suggest different voices, for different characters... The new panther sounds waaay too much like the ferret.

I'm not trying to be mean here, I'm just giving helpful advice.

Though, to help, I'm sending a question.
