i guess i accidentally lied about that last post being my last... i just needed to apologize to everyone...on both sides...on this list and if anyone cares to send this post to the other lists...i would be grateful... i sure hope it was not my fault that this got so carried away...and so many others are hurting from it...if it is my fault...i do apologize from the bottom of my heart... what was originally said struck a chord in me...i have very special friends...who stay in the background...but nontheless have very important roles in the ferret community...they rescue...they do not bring attention to themselves...they just quietly do what needs to be done... i felt the slight to them with the original comment about rescues... i guess by standing up for the rescues...asking that they be recognized as important to the ferret community...however innocently i intended it...i hurt many people in the long run...causing rifts where maybe they would not have been had i kept my mouth shut.. i am so very sorry... i can not say that enough...i am really so very sorry... and if at any point i gave the impression i was a 'rescue'...i did not meant to give that impression...i have rescued a few ferrets...as a person...but i am NOT a rescue. again...if ANY of this mess was my fault...i am SO very sorry... kat p.s...i will keep my ideals to myself in the future...i do not want to risk hurting yet more people... ===== KITY=^..^=KAT's Fuzzy Frenzy My ShelterHelp pages... http://ferretlover97.terrabox.com My Help4ADV Pages... http://Help4ADV.terrabox.com/ "ROOPS"... http://www.kwflatbed.com/hjg/hjg2.html SOS/FML Shelter and Vet List... http://SOS-ShelterList.supportourshelters.org SOS Raffles... http://raffle.supportourshelters.org/ When you care about others....when you reach out to others.... ...when you give of yourself to others...YOU MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
