The Rainbow bridge / My georgeous Flyte. the last of the 3 white witches
« Last post by lazy-ferret on August 12, 2019, 11:32:33 PM »
Today was one of those days, where the weather reflected the way the day was going to go...

We got up, and as usual, I made Flyte her medicine, but this morning, she was not interested. I decided to just give her a cuddle, and see if she would feel up to it after a bit of time to wake up.

It started raining hard outside, 25.7mm of rain in an hour. There were two large claps of thunder, Thor was obviously looking to meet up with a great Warrior, but Flyte pulled my hand in tighter, and snuggled in. Apparently, if Thor wanted her, he could wait until she was ready.

I tried her a couple of times with her medicine, but she made it very clear she was not interested, and just wanted a cuddle.

After a while, she just laid still, and while looking content, resting her head on my hand, sitting silently, cuddled up in my arms.

There was a third clap of thunder, and shortly after this, she decided that Thor had waited enough, and she was going to go with him, and meet up with all the other great Warriors who have gone before her.

She made it to 7 years, 17 days, and had lived with us, for all but 3 of those days, coming to us a 3 day old kit, along with the rest of her family. She is the last of the 3 white witches, Snowey, Megan and her, and all I can say, is Thor is going to have his hands full when those 3 get back together.

I was just going back through some of my posts about Flyte on here, and even though I am sitting here heart broken, I had to smile several times reading them, as I was reminded of some of the antics her and her 2 companions got up to. Practically every one involved her being cute to me, and winding Suz up one way or another.

She was a climber from her early days, always wanting a cuddle from her daddy!






She was also tiny, never being a ferret to put on weight, and easily fitted into this tissue box.




She tested my "Ferret Proofing" often finding ways to places others could not, like the surface in the caravan.




But mostly, and best of all, she was my "little Daddies Girl", who really enjoyed days out, and walks with me.





Sweet dreams Flyte, I am going to miss you so much.  :adore:

I hope you are enjoying being back with your Mum, and Aunty as the 3 White Witches again, and also having a blast meeting up with your other Brothers and Sisters.

I follow this lovely lady on Facebook, she is not able to take in any more ferrets at the moment as they are full and also building new sheds to house rescues. If anyone has a facebook page and could share a few of the little lovelies needing homes before I go and buy another hutch and have a few!!  :laugh:

So sorry for your loss, Mel and Christian, it is hopefully a comfort to you, that he had such a good remainder of his life after such a bad start, and learned to trust people. :adore:

Yesterday we lost our teddy bear of a ferret, Dust.


Dust was found as a stray, covered in 1,000+ ticks and petrified of people. He would scream in fright if a human tried to approach him. After 2 lots of surgeries to remove all the ticks, and lots and lots of TLC from Linda (who had named him Timmy Tick) at our local rescue, we were lucky enough to have been able to give him a home here with us for the past 6 years. He was about 8 years old.


He was a fantastic ferret, the gentlest of the gentle. He used to come to PR events with us (I'm sure Clive and Suz and Tina might remember him?) and used to enjoy the attention he got from children wanting to cuddle him. Even in the vet surgery yesterday a little girl saw him and made friends with him, he loved it right to the end. 


He loved walks. He especially loved albino girls and would ALWAYS sleep with them, couldn't get enough of his blondies. He was brilliant with the babies when introduced, looking after them and teaching them to play. In this last year it is the young ones who were looking after him, helping keep him clean and making sure he had someone to cuddle up with.


He spent his last afternoon with me in the office. His tummy was full of RCC, mince and he had lots of licks of ferret oil. I fed him a tiny bit of ham which he adored in the vet waiting room.  It was time for his arthritic pains to end, his worn down teeth to rest and for Dust to go be with all his friends over the bridge. He went to sleep licking his favourite treat.



We love you Dust. DIP xx

Today we suddenly and very unexpectedly lost Jack, our cuddly and gentle polar bear.  Jack absolutely loved getting new friends and always took the newbies under his paw.
 


He especially liked looking after any kits and would make sure they were clean and tucked up in bed.  He had a very close bond with his 3 bino girls Sparks, Alaska and Roo and would always be curled up with them.  We will miss this gentle giant who we never even had an over excited nip from in the years since we rescued him.  DIP Jack, you were the best bean a girl could ask for xx
