What a sad day for many people. i just read about Rocky and i am sooo sorry--i know how Sean feels. 3 hours ago-we had to help Buford to the bridge. He was always my favorite ferret. he spent hours sleeping on my chest and in my arms. He had a spleenectomy 3 months ago and the vet found multiple, nonoperable tumors and advanced cancer in him. We did all we could for him and this last week, we had been feeding him every 2 hours day and night. We know he is not hurting anymore and he is at rest and waiting at the rainbow bridge for muldone or saraferret to help him see Dweezil and Ginger once again. Dave and i wish all of you and your fuzzies a very peaceful and joyous Christmas. Hold those fuzzies closer and longer today and tonight, and tell them how much you love them. sue and dave ************************************** sue Home of the Winchester Weezles: Baron B.Bueford, Prince Pee of Wee, Lady Quin, Princess Sweety Pie, Bandito the Bug-A-Bug, and of course, Tater Gater Blaizer: thief of tatters, Taters own "mini Mee" named Tater Pudd'n, such a tiny bundle of energy and ferretude and Sundea, Queen of Hearts: Abby, shy as a whisper: and The Handsome ZEBBY introducing, Hanna, the chocolate Sweety, and Sonny and Cher, a wonderful pair of sables: and of course the Elder new addition: Lazarus and me the pooper scooper [Posted in FML issue 5098]
