I want to thank everyone who bought bedding from me while I was having the bedding drive for my 2 ferret rescues who were needing the surgery. Ziggie had hers about 3 weeks ago and has done fantastic. She had bilateral adrenal disease so the surgery cost more because the initial estimate was for only one-sided adrenal removal. We had Tigger back to the vet today for a pre-op exam and I asked the vet straight up what he thought Tigger's chances were of making it through the surgery and he said he thought Tigger had a chance, not an excellent chance but he felt we needed to try. The way he put it to us was Tigger had NO chance without the surgery so he is to have his procedure done April 12th. We will be taking him down that morning and remaining at the clinic while it is being done and we were told he will probably remain there for a few days but I can count on having to force feed him for several days when he comes home so no big deal there. Again, thanx so much to everyone who bought bedding. I had no idea I would be so swamped with orders and I am running behind so please be patient in me getting these out to everyone. I am a one-woman company. I make everything myself, do all my own marketing, process, mail, and fill all the orders so it can get quite hectic. I am trying to stay positive and hope for the best at this point with Tigger but I do know that he has had a year of love, good food, and medical care that he would not have gotten had he stayed where he was and that I feel good about. Maybe Tigger was not suppose to be with us for a long time, maybe we were only suppose to have him a short time and get to love him a little while. Maybe he didn't get much love in his little life before and he was given a little more time so he could go to the Bridge after having know what it was like to be loved and have a family. So thanx to everyone, you all made this possible. By purchasing the bedding you ensured my 2 rescues would get their surgeries. I didn't know I had so many wonderful ferret friends.
