What's sadder than a sick ferret? A sick, senior citizen ferret dropped
off at a shelter because the owner can't afford vet care or doesn't
feel the ferret is worthy of the amount of money it will take to make
it better. Every day ferret shelters across this country are presented
with this challenge to their hearts and their checkbooks. Knowing that
many of these ferrets will never get adopted because of their age and
certainly because of their health status, they step up to the plate and
get the furkids the veterinary help they need and welcome them into
their hearts and homes. But this comes at a cost to those shelters.
Compounding vet bills and a bad economy have hit the shelters
exceedingly hard for the past few years. Whether it's a sudden tragedy,
like H1N1, or just the same old surrender excuse for an elderly, sick
ferret, SOS can help and so can you. Purchasing raffle tickets directly
benefits shelters in need and helps save ferret's lives! Buy a ticket,
help save a life! It's that simple.
Yet another prize has been added to the Support Our Shelters raffle - a
$30 gift certificate to Ferrets Are Love by Fran Brown where you can
choose from adorable bedding in many different styles and fabrics, as
well as toys, ferret jewelry, notepads, tote bags and toys, "Ferrets
