Just want to let you know after a long fight with cancer, Hondo lost his battle today. He was Rose's husband's ferret and was very much loved by Bob. He was opened up months ago for surgery and closed up because his tumor was attached to all of his organs and he was inoperable. He lived longer than the time he was given. They are truly thankful for the time and love they could give him and would do it all over again as they do and have done with the many, many, unwanted others that they have lovingly taken into their home as permanent residents.
