DianeFG Posted February 24, 2003 Share Posted February 24, 2003 Penny was my sweet little ferret that I adopted last June. Penny and her sister Nicky were found in a dumpster in their cage, no food, no water, the cage was filled with feces. They were close to death from starvation. She was so sweet, she would crawl into the neck of my shirt and cuddle up, kissing my chin. I went in the room when she was put to sleep, it was so hard. They gave her back to me in a little box shaped like a coffin. We went home and buried her in our yard, up on the hill. My girls are going to plant some flowers there. She had a tough life before we got her, but I hope the last 9 months of being loved, pampered, cuddled and played with helped make up for it. Its so hard to lose them Quote Diane Fudgie 2/27/96 - 8/14/05 and Goods 2/27/96 - 3/12/08 ~~Together again~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilliesMom Posted February 24, 2003 Share Posted February 24, 2003 You're an angel for helping them and now you've got a little angel. Sincerest condolences. (I'd send you some cyberflowers, but for some reason, it's not working.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paula Posted February 24, 2003 Share Posted February 24, 2003 Oh Diane. I'm so sorry you've lost your little Penny. I remember when you adopted her. She was so lucky to have been with you, even for such a short time. You made a difference to her.

Guest ProudGreyMom Posted February 24, 2003 Share Posted February 24, 2003 She was a Lucky Penny to have found you and to have you find her and make the rest of her life wonderful. I had a ferret for 9 years and he was incredible joy in my life. I still talk of him all the time even years after he passed. So sorry for your loss.

Forevermybabies Posted February 27, 2003 Share Posted February 27, 2003 I'm very sorry. I love ferrets. I babysat once for a family who had a very silly ferret, who stole my shoes. I had to borrow a pair to go home in. They found them later stuffed behind the couch. Such sweet, funny, smart little animals. You have my condolences.
