My ferret, Gizmo died early this morning.. he had an unkown illness that had been attacking him for several months, but it wasn't until lately that he lost tons of weight and stopped eating and drinking.
He had lost too much weight and I guess the illness just finally did him in.
Ferrets have a lifespan of something around 7-8 years.
Gizmo was only 2 1/2 years old. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
That little guy was the best, most friendly pet I've ever owned.

Sorry Chubz, always sucks to lose a pet.
What we've got here is failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach, so you get what we had here last week which is the way he wants it. Well, he gets it.
I feel for you. Ive had 2 gerbils, 2 cats, and a dog die in the last 10 years. Losing any animal hurts
Reeking of awesomeness!
Don't have anything good to say Macavoy, then by all means, shut up.

I think Roy is replying to the way Chubz has replied to a person's death in the past. Maybe.

To have compassion for every person that dies would be a waste of my time, because in my book there are those who I feel deeply for, and those that - to me - are just another death of the trillions that've occured in this world.
To me, it's just another wangsta gangsta that's been killed due to violence. Tupac, Notorious B.I.G. ... nothing new in my book.

Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence. In other words, it is war minus the shooting.

In this case my ferret = the bolded part. It was like losing a family member.

Why don't you leave it marked as edited man. You have changed this post like 2 or 3 times already. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wall.gif[/img]

Roy doesn't seem to feel deeply for your ferret though.
I mean, I'm just sayin'.....

Couldn't have said it better.
Geeze dudes leave the guy alone. If he's buggin ya'll then replyin to him will just make him bother ya more.
I am usually not too happy when one of my pets die. Let him be upset.
