Bootle(VFF121) was born on August 4, 2005, in the Frisky. Her mother was Frascati and her father was an unknown male. Bootle was born with two litter-mates named Tangle(VFF119) and Fable(VFM120). Bootle and her brother and sister survived their first three months, then Frascati gave birth to another litter in October. Then in November, The Dude, the dominant male, died; however, in December of the same year, a Drie Doring male named Gazebo joined the Frisky and assumed male dominance beside Frascati. Bootle survived to adulthood and soon became the oldest suborinante female in the Frisky. When Frascati died in Janaury 2007 from disease, Bootle took over as dominant female. Being unrelated to her, Gazebo accepted her as his new mate. Bootle gave birth to her first litter on September 10, 20
