Phoebe lived her life with incredible passion, joy and gusto. She loved fiercely and so many of us were lucky to be beneficiaries of her loving devotion. I rescued Phoebe from the Manhattan kill shelter where she ended up after a severe case of neglect and abuse. She was wild, aggressive and a bit scary at first. I often had my doubts that this could work, but I didn't give up on her and she didn't give up on me. Never in my wildest dreams could I have anticipated the depths of love, loyalty and devotion I would learn from this feisty little girl. Having spent over a third of my life to date with Phoebe, we grew up and became adults together. I am forever changed for the better because she was in my life and I will always carry her with me in my memories and in my heart. You will be terribly missed, my little chicken. Rest in peace, Phoebe (1998 - 2014)
