NOT AN ANGEL The young kit and the older ferret lay on shaded sweet grass watching the reunions. Sometimes a man, sometimes a woman, sometimes a whole family would approach the Rainbow Bridge, be greeted by their loving pets and cross the bridge together. The young kit playfully nipped at the older one. "Look! Something wonderful is happening!" The older ferret stood up and squealed, "Quickly...get over to the path." "But that's not my owner" whined the kit, but he did as he was told. Thousands of pets surged forward as a figure in white walked on the path toward the bridge. After the glowing figure passed each animal, that animal bowed it's head in love and respect. The figure finally approached the bridge and was met by a menagerie of joyous animals. Together, they all walked over the bridge and disappeared. The young kit was still in awe. "Was that an angel?" he whispered. "No, son," the older ferret replied. "That was more than an angel. That was a person who worked rescue." Keep up the great work-it's appreciated! To J9 (you know who you are), Mike and Debi Taylor: Thought of you guys in particular-much love and support. Thanks for all you've done for me and the ferrets! I'll always be here to help out.
