Pearly Girl

My beautiful girl Pearly. Who one day had Cancer of the tail, which half had to be removed. It started alomost 5 years ago. I worked at this horrible pet store (found out later on) I first noticed pearly all by her self in a back room with all of the other `sick` animals that couldnt be sold. She was in a small hamster cage, eating rabbit food...I then took her out of thger cage and snuggled her, some employees told me she was vicious and bit everyone. She not once put teeth on me. I was asked if I wanted her because of her condition that they didnt want to treat anymore, because of the cost. I of course said yes. They gave me a little box for her, and at the end of my shift I left to go home...She was and has been the most amazing ferret every since.
