Lenmcharristar 9,183 Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 Dieing of old age knowing you gave him the best life he could have had is a comfort to take from losing them, it's when the fcuking fox kills him in a bury that angers me most 1 Quote Link to post
max abell 196 Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 Know how you feel mate we lost our best Jill a couple of years ago she was 14yrs and 1 week old and she bolted hundreds of rabbits in her lifetime and mothered some great working Kitts She never so much as nipped anyone in her life she was a great loss to our team my niece who ferrets with us still gets weepy eyed if she is mentioned. I wouldn't mind a ferret court full of ferrets like her 3 Quote Link to post

Jarvis 277 Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 Sorry to hear about your hob mate. Lost my favorite hob few weeks ago, was gutted, he was 8 but had many days and memories with him! Still got his son so can keep his strain going. 1 Quote Link to post
