I am pretty sure I have personally thanked all of our wonderful Giving Tree Santa's this year, but I wanted to offer up an extra THANK YOU just in case. All our ferrets on the tree have received their gifts but one, and I know that that ferrets package is on the way. Thanks to the generosity of some wonderful individuals the lives of the ferrets here have truly been made brighter and my worries for some much needed items have been eased as well. The lovely bedding, toys, treats, food, and more have truly eased the ferrets and my spirit during this financially tough year. Although I work 2 jobs and provide the basics, food, med, litter and vet money, the "extras" are what sometimes fall by the wayside or have to be stretched the farthest. These "extras" to me provide the enrichment and joy to the ferrets,.......the treats, toys and fancy bedding are the things that I have the least amount of money in the budget for yet they are the things that often the ferrets themselves enjoy the most. Without the extreme love and generosity of the Santa's the ferrets would not have the rich abundance of enrichment items that they often need, but is so hard to afford some days. I also had other wonderful Santa's that saw fit to send extra money and/or the much needed cleaning & laundry supplies that I go through so frequently, helping to ease my financial burden if just for a little while. Truly all is appreciated......more than you all can possibly imagine. Thank you again, Daphne Forget-Me-Not-Ferrets of Quincy, IL [Posted in FML 7996]
