Say no to PETsMART Petition
http://www.petitiononline.com/fer8hapy/petition.html
Dear Sir or Madam,
Please use the link below to visit the petition created concerning
PETsMART's decision to sell ferret kits.
If every signature represents $100.00 spent in your stores monthly, you
stand to lose $215,700.00 per month, $2,588,400.00 per year. Many of
the signatures are from shelters. Many of the signatures represent much
more than $100.00 per month.
The loss of your reputation for putting the animal's welfare foremost is,
of course, of far greater value. That reputation has been a very good
marketing tool, it would be a shame to lose it now.
Please reconsider. There are too few shelters housing too many ferrets.
In NC I know of only two shelters. One houses 100 ferrets or better.
The other is fast approaching those numbers.
Here is the link to the petition:

Here is a link to a website listing known ferret shelters. It is updated
every year.
