Hi all,
To those of you out there that are new to the FML, don't worry about your
fuzzies getting diseases like all the fuzzies people write about.  Know
about them of course and know what to look for but you should know that your
fuzzies if given their shots, regular doctor check ups, eat a proper diet
and get plenty of exercise, just like you, will in all probability live a
long and healthy life.  The FML, while it can scare some of the newbies a
little, isn't meant to help those with some problem they don't what to do
about!  Just learn from what others have gone though and be an educated pet
of a fuzzie.  Enjoy them as much as possible, and if something should go
wrong maybe you'll be able to catch it while it's still treatable and your
fuzzie can be around for many more years!
