I just want to wish the FML a very glorious 20th Aniversary!!!! I am pretty new here too and I can't get enough of the FML. BIG, I really don't know how you do it!!!1 The FML has taught me so much about ferrets. In fact. I realized the other day I know more about ferrets than I know about dogs who have always been in my life. I can halp my ferret so much more than my poor Chi, Bella MIa (I've only been owned by ferrets about 8 yrs and by dogs ALL my life)!.There is more love in this one daily list. There is more caring and understanding than amywhere else I know of. The laughter from so many your posts helps so much in a world full of sadness. I check out each and every video and every web page as I read along! I love to see in the posts the love and kinship you have for each other. The mysteries and stories that so many of you create makes each and every day so special. And of course, none of this could have been accomplished without BIG!!!!!!! Thank You so much BIG! You are THE man! I do want to wish everyone on the FML a very Merry Cristmas and many many more to come (I hope we all share them together too!). I want to thank Wolfy for all the fun and laughter, the colburns for their great stories (is there another one coming soon?), Sukie for all her ferret knowledge, Isabelle Gucci and Super Tonks for their love and and sharing teir new wonderful adoption with us, Kat parsons who is ever giving, Renee Downs who we hear of from everyone else--she never seems to stop moving, the Bridge Greeters who have helped just about every one of us in ourr worst times of grief. I want to thank especially, Kris for his annual endless work on the Giving Tree to see that as many little shelter ferrets as possible get Xmas gifts!!! Loris Sies, you who had started one of the biggest ferret rescues in American history and the unbeleivable way the FML people ( and many other groups) picked up on it and accomplished the impossible. ithout you 100's of sweet furballs would be out in the harsh cold anohter winter without a hammy and love of a human!!!! I just can't possibly mention everyone (Larayssa, Sprite, Susan Theil, Kim Fox on and on and on)!!!! Just thank- you for making the year of 2007 one of the greatest years ever for me. I thank god for bringing you all into my life and I want to especially thank all the special little ferrets who came into my life and many who tragically left it! Thank you all for the comfort and sympathies when I so tragically lost my Fearless Shakespeare! I felt like many of you cried with me! And last thank-you to god for bringing ferrets into my life beginning 8 yrs ago starting with my Nibbles and now with my last lonely girl, Gracie Girl. Thank-you for bringing me and my ferts my little tiny Chihuahua, Bella Mia into my life and my ferrets (her and Gracie just love each other and yes, Bella still loves ferret food and ferret treats- NO dog treats). And if god sees fit, please bring me another little fert. Thank-you everyonne and Happy Holidays to all of you!!! PS. Oh and thanks god for my Hooman kids and hubby (almost forgot) [Posted in FML 5828]
