With a VERY Heavy Heart i must tell you of Spirits passing~ He passed this morning in his mommies arms at 8:10 am Wyoming time.. gave her a "sweet goodbye look" and ventured towards the Bridge~ Auntie Neen (Frontier Ferrets,WY) took the day off with Lori.. Upon necropsy they found a perforated bowel, liquified. Actually this is the third ferret of Loris that Jen has killed~the other 2 with incorrect medical advice..Spirit thru STARVATION & dehydration~ For those who have not heard how Spirit was recovered... We had a lead that Morrison was in Boise Idaho...we sent our ferret person to a residence in Boise, and she spoke directly to Morrison... Morrison denied having Spirit or ANY ferrets in her possession..That was Sunday July 14th...the following day we contacted Boise & Davis County Animal Control..to assist in our getting Spirit back as we did NOT believe Spirit was not there...That same day Morrison contacted DeAnn Hess (Davis Animal Control) asking what to do ... DeAnn demanded she turn Spirit over to Boise animal control,immediately! Which she did.Within minutes our ferret person picked up a VERY ILL Spirit...Rich Donovan (Executive Director/Boise animal control/Humane Society ) had mailed me asking for this to happen,asap..because Spirits condition was SOOOO CRITICAL he did not want to even take him into the Animal Shelter ... It has been a very painful journey for Spirit since Morrisons involvement...it has been an uphill battle since he was returned even tho he received all possible medical and supportive care by those directly involved... A Pay Pal Account has been established for Spirits medical expenses and his cremation.If you would like to donate the pay pal acct is: [log in to unmask] If you would prefer checks you may send them to me: Tara Radford 8300 Phillips RD SW Unit 80 Lakewood,Wa....98498 Be sure to mark BOTH pay pal & checks for:Spirits Fund...
