Although Jack Daniels wasn't my ferret, I feel as though I lost one of my own. We didn't live with him but I saw him almost everyday. He was my sister's ferret and was adopted by my best friend along with his life long cage mate Captain Morgan around five months ago. He was insanely attached to my sister and when he moved in with my best friend, he was insanely attached to her as well.
Jack Daniels (who was re-named Achillies when my best friend adopted him from my baby sister) was the kind of boy who accepted anyone who walked through the door with an open heart. He was always a peace keeper and an old soul, he would sit and listen to any problems anyone had with a look of pure empathy, sincerity and understanding. He was literally everyone's best friend, his life long cage mate- Captain Morgan (who was re-named Aries after they were adopted from my baby sister by my best friend), Kahlua, Mojito, Nyxa and even my best friends cats, Medusa and Osirus. His passion in life was shoe stealing and eating every edible thing in sight. He was a true gentleman, even though he was submissive to Morgan he would always protect the ladies (Kahlua and Nyxa) from Morgan's domination dragging and was Kahlua's first friend when I adopted her from the bad situation her previous owner had her in, he immediately understood that she was fragile and was gentle with her always. In all the time I have known him, I have never seen him mad. His life ended too quickly to an aweful accident, though it was a good life. There will forever be a hole in the life of everyone who met him, loved him and now feel for the loss of his light, warmth and love. We love you Jack Daniels/ Achillies and we will miss you. We hope you are happy where you are and looking down upon us all with that same unconditional understanding love.
(Incase someone doesn't want to read it, I will explain below the picture what happened last night to the best of my ability because I wasn't present)
Last night at 1:50 am I got the worst text a ferrent can recieve from another ferrent, Jack Daniels had left us. I got down stairs to my best friend and her fiancee's apartment and she was crying so hard that I could barely understand my best friend, she could barely breath. She had gotten new couches for her birthday on thursday, the couches were ferret proofed- or at least they thought they were- but somehow Jack had squeezed between the cushions and gotten under the couch, unbeknownst to them. They looked all over the house for him and somehow figured out that he was under the couch. They had to rip the bottom out of the couch to get to him but unfortunately he was already gone by the time they got through. He had gotten his head suck between two boards in the couch and broken his neck, when they discovered this they texted me. When I got down stairs he was already in a box. I opened the box and gently touched him, appologized to him and said my good byes. I still kind of feel like it is a bad dream I will wake up from. I hope that he is happy across the bridge and I hope he is waiting for us all when we eventually arrive. He was a blessing and an angel in our lives. I love you Jax Attax
