A Bittersweet Farewell
As the car drove away, taking the foxes to their new life, Lily felt an overwhelming mix of emotions. Sadness, yes, but also pride. She had helped them survive the harsh winter, had given them love and care when they needed it most. Now they were on their way to becoming strong and independent, just as they were meant to be. The emptiness in her room was palpable, but so was the warmth in her heart.

An Unexpected Gift
A week later, Lily received a letter from the wildlife center. It was filled with updates about the foxes. They were thriving, learning to hunt and fend for themselves in a safe, controlled environment before being released back into the wild. The letter included pictures of them, now more fox-like than ever. Lily smiled through her tears. They looked happy and healthy. It was the closure she hadn’t realized she needed.
