That's a great background story, Susan. Thanks to you and then Gloria,
these little souls got lucky for the rest of their all-too-short lives.

Houston and Dallas both were wonderful. I'll never forget trapping
them. Dallas got into the first trap - this fluffy little gray and
white ball. Then I waited...and waited and waited. Houston would come
closer and go away - come closer, then back to the edge of the woods. I
was trapping with mackerel and his appetite- thank goodness - finally
got the best of him! Got them both in one day. I was sure that Dallas
was going to be the first to tame down and that Houston would stay a
"wild man" -- but Houston tamed first and best - he was beautiful, so
sleek and black. They were lucky enough to get to live with Gloria and
I got to see them often. Dallas was right there across the bridge ready
to meet Houston, as was my Leader. How wonderful to think of all three
as free and healthy and happy!
