Last year, I had both a light heart attack & stroke. This left me pretty sick. I'd talked to Zoo about my 5 very, very bonded kids. She agreed they needed to stay together, despite what others thought should be done. A very sweet friend drove my car- fuzzies & I to Zoo's. We stayed the weekend. When I met Zoo & saw some 10 yr old fuzz butts, I knew my kids were in the most wonderful of homes. Of my 5, four have wings now. Zoo let me know with each one. Helen was a tearful one, more than some. You know how one gets to be special from bonding. Helen came to me from Lake Co. Florida animal control. She was dubbed a bad biter, and did get a taste a few times on me before she learned to trust again. Blind & deaf. She learned to snuggle with Zoo,gave her kisses. Dog Bone remains there,advanced cardiomyopathy. So named as he was found in a back yard with 7 dogs wanting to eat him. Zoo tells me he's doing so good. And with her care, my heart knows he's keeping her busy with his antics. Zoo is a super knowledgeable lady whom I've learned from. She is like an encyclopedia on ferrets. I can't say enough good about this sweet lady. God Bless us all [Posted in FML 8146]
