Just a quick note- (or maybe not so quick- LOL) to let everyone know that
we are officially open.  Anyone looking to adopt in central Florida or know
of ferrets needing a shelter, feel free to contact us.  It's already been
busy around here and we are looking forward to doing our part, small as it
may be.
 
We currently have four ferrets in the shelter and 10 waiting for pick up in
various areas.  We we worried about one of our guys, Bear, having distemper
as he showed many signs, so we asked for a hold on new arrivals.  However,
I am so pleased to report that Bear is doing GREAT!!  Distemper seems to
not be the case..  he's a sweet 3.5 yr old cinnamon and he's looking great!
 
We will have the web site real soon... think I wrote that last time- LOL
but we have been building shelves, cages, etc.  to be ready for opening..
It is close and I'll let all of you know when it is up..
 
We do have an adrenal case in.  Her name is Roxie.  We got her three weeks
ago from a family (with money) that did not want to pay the money for
surgery.  (grrr) She's an angel, around 4.5 sable MF.  Her vulva is pretty
swollen, but she's in good health otherwise.  I wanted to let you all know
of the fund raiser we are having for her..  For eveyone that donates 30.00
or more, we are sending out a free ferret hammock.  We make ours out of
a thick cloth- no synthetic fur.  Size is about 20" X 12".  We are also
putting everyone's name who donates for Roxie into a drawing (regarless of
amount).  The name drawn will receive a 5# of Totally Ferret or a ferret
gift bag of equal value- the winner's choice..
 
Donations can either be sent to the shelter or directly to our surgeon.  If
you do send a donation to our veterinarian- please let us know so we can
send you your hammock if applicable and enter your name into the drawing..
