It breaks my heart to say this... Bump of the Tennesee 5 has been assisted to the bridge.. Bump and his 2 brothers and 2 sisters came to us in July of 2008 when his family at the time got stopped at the california border-- they were moving there from Tennessee and had no idea they were illegal in Cal. Bump was a healthy boouncy ferret and although he was the eldest he often forgot himself durin play and would run through the tubes like a kit. the last several months have been hard on Bump-- no matter what we tried he just kept losing weight and strength-- he rallied well today and even played a bit.. but I just couldn't see him suffer any longer. Bump had a ...for lack of a better term... bumpon his sternum from birth and that was the reason for his unusual name.. he was a beautiful sable boy and will be missed dearly-- Bubba, Sassy ,Noah, and cadance all kisses him and Noah groomed him well to say farewell. bridge greaters-- please help him find his way and let him know i'll be looking for him someday when i cross. heaven won't be heaven at all without ferrets. momma Lisa [Posted in FML 6681]
