I just wanted to post to some who knew Miss Jezebel of her passing to Rainbow Bridge tonight at 7:22 pm. She was a special lady, our Southern Belle, who had long, white gloves that reached to her shoulders. A lovely chocolate mitt who for no reason, was rejected by her family and placed in a shelter not once, but twice. The second time in, she stayed. She was named, according to the story, because "she sleeps with all the boys" -- and so she did, a host of them - Wolf, Nicodemus, Bruiser, Kyle, Monster, Gizmo, Moe. She became invaluable to the shelter because of her genteel manners - she taught the babies cage manners - where the food bowl was and that it wasn't a toy, how to use a water bottle, what the litter box is REALLY for (thats a not a play area!). She swam with us in the Chesapeake Bay.....One 4th of July, she walked and ran with us on the beach for 1/2 mile....She received her "first time sailor certificate" from the Cape May - Lewes ferry...She placed 7th out of 12 ferrets in the Seniors ring at the last show we took her to and I was so proud of her ...She was a true lady through and through.... She will finally join Bandit, her cagemate at Rainbow Bridge.....Jezebel, my darlin', I miss you already....We love you and we will be together again one day..... JEZEBEL 9/17/90 - 2/21/98 Lisa, Head Ferret The Ferret Haven "By-the-Sea" [Posted in FML issue 2225]
