NIBBLES RAFFLE - Frontier Ferrets Rescue and Shelter
(Wyoming and Utah)
 
As many of you already know, two ferrets, Nibbles and Oscar, were
surrendered to the shelter almost two weeks ago.  I am their foster mom
and I've been working with my friend, Eileen, who has Frontier Ferrets
Rescue and Shelter.  Not too long ago Eileen had to make the difficult
decision to close her doors to any more surrenders, however, we did
decide that we would still take any ferrets that were left and not
adopted from animal control.  Nibbles and Oscar are two surrenders that
were referred to me through animal control.  Both ferrets are active and
alert, however, I could tell Nibbles had some health problems so I took
her immediately to the vet.
 
The vet says that Nibbles needs to have surgery as soon as possible.
Nibbles is about 6 years old, adrenal, insulinomic, blind due to
cataracts in both eyes, has walking difficulties and at some time in her
life her tail was broken and it is now quite crooked.  But these things
have not stopped her from wanting to get around to check things out.
The vet thinks she is still a surgical candidate but we need the funds to
get the surgery done.  Since the shelter is technically closed, we are
strapped for funds.  So to raise funds for her surgery we are selling a
few items on eBay but we are also having a RAFFLE!!!!
 
So I would like to introduce Oscar, her brother, who is going to be the
MC for the NIBBLES RAFFLE!!!
 
Thank you,
Mary
