Robyn thank you for telling me about this thread!!! Phred you always were a favorite of mine, and I am not in the least surprised that you would offer yourself in this way to help out our Zippy and dear Bowser. With so much bad news in the world this thread shines like a beacon that there is still a lot of love and caring going on as well. I hope that whoever becomes Bowser's new forever mom or dad will become a Pet Talker. It would be nice to be able to follow this boy's story for years to come. *sniff* *sniff* What a beautiful story!
