I appreciate everyone's suggestions greatly, and it has made me realize that there are a lot of caring and understanding people on the FML. I have also learned that it is Funny how words CAN get twisted on this thing...I never said that Buckie, Kokie, and Rosie were sent to a shelter....never....that just popped up somehow and I find it amusing... Sort of like gossip in middle school I guess :) They have gone to a wonderful couple in Arab that already had 7 before the 3. I understand how some people get a thread going, others respond with good intentions, a word gets mentioned, then another person responds to that with that mis-word included instead of reading the origional post. Those things happen. I have chosen not to ask for Buckie back, as he is finally settling down. Good news for his new family as they are SO MUCH in love with all 3. I think it will be better this way for everyone, as I will probably be going to college in the fall part time, and working full time (not for sure but a possibility)and it wouldn't be fair to them. As forrest gump says "That's all I've got to say about that." ===== ~*~*~ VALERIE ~*~*~ ,',', __ \ `'`,/ \ ()o=; `'`','`/ . \/ / ( / \" / \(_ \(_ ~*`~*`FERRETS RULE~`*~`* [Posted in FML issue 4074]
