Hello everyone, First, we would like to thank everyone who responded to the situation with Jester about two weeks ago (the little boy who kept throwing up). All of your suggestions were very helpful and very much appreciated. Unfortunately, Jester lost his fight to his "ailment" early on Sunday morning. He was scheduled for exploratory surgery on Thursday. We were both very happy to be with him and comfort him during this time. It was very hard for Tara and I. He was just one of those ferrets the stole your heart the moment you looked at him. He deserved a much better life than he was given by his previous "owners" (sometimes this shelter business really makes you HATE people, they kept him outside in a tin shed and fed him cheap dog food his whole life). Jester left this world quietly Sunday morning, in the arms of two people who loved him very, very much. It was a horrible experience to go through, but somehow being there to comfort him and knowing he would soon be in a better place, where he would be whole and healthy again, made us happy for him, while feeling pain for ourselves. Again, many many thanks to all those who offered suggestions on helping this wonderful little boy. He will be missed more than words can say. Please if you all could, take just a moment and say a little prayer for a wonderful little ferret who, like all the others already at the Bridge, left this world far too soon. We love you Jester.
