Hello everyone, Sorry about the last post, I had a couple mis placed
words that spell check didn't pick up.
I have a nice e-mail chat with the person who is selling a large lot of
ferret items on e-bay. They gave me premision to post what was said:
EBAY SELLERS RESPONSE: I am not trying to sell my ferrets on Ebay....
All of these people are trying to get me to send them to a shelter. I
do need to find them a home and our family agreed that if we sell the
ferret supplies for the price we want, we will give them to a shelter.
We don't want to do that because two of the ferrets are housetrained
and used to dogs and cats as house pets. They are not used to a cage
and I want them to go to a home where they will be treated as they are
here, uncaged. They go out with the dogs and sleep with the dogs.
They were with another family who had dogs and cats and the husband
was deployed to Iraq. We took them a year ago as a favor and we can
no longer keep them. But we are in no great hurry to get rid of them.
I suppose that these people would be ok...if I cancelled the ad and
just took them for a drive. Sorry. But I am really angry about this.
I've gotten alot of "hate mail" regarding the ad...because they email
me and ask... do the ferrets come with it? There is no mention of
that in the ad. It is for the supplies alone. But on the other hand,
I have met alot of kind and caring people through Ebay that want them
to find a good home and... I've turned down 6 offers from people whom
I didn't feel would provide a good home or should I say the kind of
spoiled lifestyle that they are accoustomed to.
I THINK THIS SAYS ENOUGH.
