Hiya all dis is Ms SaraFerret. I jus happens to be on Rainbow Bridge duty on de 20th--have a hard time wit dates as we dont have days or tings like dat here, so I has to checks wit de Boss on de date. Well de guardian angel ferret who tells us of newcomers signalled dat a lady ferret was crossing de Bridge and to be ready as she looked quite elderly and to be on de watch for her. So I trots out half way across de bridge to wait for her and what did I see but this beautiful ferret bouncing across de beginning--this was no old furlady-dis was a very young girl furry. Make a note for the guardian to do a better job and bouncing along wit a backpack loaded she came. In fact she bounced into me--whoopsie--we both almost fell off. I introduces myself and she says my names Oskie--really Oscar cuz someone who didnt know their tail from dere head tought I was a boy--Geesh. She proceeded to help me across as I had sprained my tail and wowsie did it hurt. Here I was a greeter being carried by an older lady fur. Well we gots across de bridge and she asks me how did you know I was an older fur, well we got word dat your hooman was taking you to de dr as you was in bunches of pain but de Boss decided to call you home instead of dat shot. Oh yeah, she says Mommy Sue told me about de Bridge and how I would be greeted. I sure misses Mommy Sue and de other furries. We compares notes on how olds we were and it turns out I was around her age too when I crossed. All dose yucky problems dat us furries get-- sigh. Infact we both sighed. She says well its nice dat you were on duty tonite--what do we do here. Well first we gets wings and halos and new hammies--ohshe said I brought my old hammie from home as I miss home and wanted to have something and she drug out de hammie from her secret backpack. I tells her well you can have two hammies den. Would you likes to stay wit me until we checks to see if you have any other relatives of yr business here. Sure she said. So we pops over to de Kit House where we deck her out wit wings and de halo and of course the pink hammie so nobody ever mistakes her for a boy and her wings are decked wit pink bows and she has pink flowers on her pink halo. Yep she sure is a girl furry. A group of de older guys stopped by to check out de new lady dey had heard was comming and dey had heard dat she was older. Dese boys never give up--dere was a number of ten and twelve year old ones and dey looked very dapper wit suits yet and new ties. I warns her not to be swept off her feet by dese fast-talkers and we laughs and giggles. One furry had brought music and so Ms Oskie and Ms SaraFerret wardanced dere paws off till we collapsed and den drug our weary paws to our place and just fell into a pile of blankies --heck wit de hammies--dat will wait till tomorrow. Her last words were I love you Mommy Sue before she fell asleep Love and dooks from de Rainbow Bridge SaraFerret and Oskie [Posted in FML issue 5012]
