Dear SaraFerret Sadly for us our supermum "Shawnee" a beautiful Tiny Sable girl has departed our company to join with Argon ( Brother) ,Chrony, Latte, Shorty, Ash, Chocolate and Siteva. ...........Guess retirement was not for you ay girl....... But mostly we think having given life to 35 kits in her action filled 3 years here, she decided she had done enough for the living on earth and wanted to come to the Bridge to help you all with the littles there that lost their lives for whatever reason, even some of her own like Layla and Trillion, Criplet, Lakota, Ayla, ( All who went so young) and some of her Sisters babes too. I hope she finds them at the Bridge for we dont know if they made it there) Life was busy for a supermum like Shawnee but she loved having kits, so much so she could get out of locked cages to find a suitable dad lol. While we shall miss her we are sure you can find some littles who need a loving mum to teach them, care for the ones who didnt know love like Shawnee can give, she is fire and brimstone when she is protecting her young and the gentlest "Angel" when her babes have grown She leaves a legacy of gorgeous littles here, and her daughter carries on with a litter, just before Nana Shawnee passed. I hope she knows we tried so hard to keep her and see she had more life, but in the end her sickness and suffering was too much for us and her to come back from, so we let her go onwards to new life at the Bridge Starlight kisses and cuddles Shawnee, I freely give the piece of heart you take, as you gave so much heart to me. The Clan misses you, and Tundra, Fidget, (Sisters) and Gryphon (brother) will catch up one day with you. Never will be quite the same here little doll without you. Till the cycle turns again, and I keep my heart open if you choose to return one day to gift your spirit to us or others. Love Michelle and Clan xxxxx [Posted in FML 6184]
