Kim: Thank you so much for sharing this link on the FML so that I could read about Phoenix and, as you asked, celebrate his life. I hope everyone reads this story. It will make you cry but it will also lift your spirits and remind you why we love these guys so much. I've been involved in a few such rescues, and there is nothing I've ever felt more gratifying than the love of a ferret who has been brought back from near death. It's so hard to be continually reminded that we live in a world where so many people mistreat and neglect animals, but it's also so good to know that there are a lot of people who care enough to fight against that neglect. I'm so sorry for your loss of Phoenix, but so glad for the time that he had with you. <http://www.smallanimalchannel.com/ferrets-magazine/your-ferret-stories/the-ferret-that-cheated-death-1010.aspx> Jeff In Loving Memory of Neo, Trinity, Morphy, Possum, Pip, Pop, Sabrina, Minnie Mouse, Hunny, Misty, Frodo, Baggins, and Mr. Parker Caring for Luna, Baby Girl, Dozer, Boomer, and Zoomer [Posted in FML 7136]
