I came here 2 days ago. In the post "Guilt For Life" you will see why I returned to this place of woe. But it is not woe I bring today!
A couple I barely know heard through the "friend of a friend grapevine" that I had put my furbaby down because of a cancer she had. My first ferret Abigail contacted this very late in her life (thank God) and one of the symptoms is the little tyke falls over or just loses balance. When Angel did this a couple of weeks ago I drew a hard breath. You know the outcome.....
.....when the couple heard about that sympton they were shaken because one of their furbabies had recently manifested this horror. Upon a vet visit the grim news was confirmed and another small creature met its maker. I cried very hard. I felt somehow responsible in a strange sort of way.
This couple contacted me through the same grapevine and gave me their 4 year old male ferret!
HE IS HERE RIGHT NOW!!!!!!
You still my be wondering why I called the post "Twice in a Row".
It is because this is exactly how we recieved Angel. After Abigails death we went to Windsor on Christmas eve a couple of years ago and when we arrived.......THERE SHE WAS! A gift from someone who just could not spend the time they wanted to with her and heard about our passion for this small and often maligned creature.
SO THAT MAKES TWO!!!!!
I guess I am a good ferret gaurdian

Thank You God
