Tina, I'm offended by the statement that you got no responses.  What were
those two or three e-mail messages you and I exchanged?  Granted, we may
not have been able to fulfill your request for a baby ferret near Cutie's
age, but I did respond.  And knowing me like I do, probably within an hour
or two of your e-mail.
 
If you're still interested, let me know and I will personally contact
Angela and see what we can do for you.  If you have a very specific age,
color, etc., ferret in mind, we may not be able to fill your request.  If
you just want to give a needy ferret a good home, I'm sure we can set you
up with a half-dozen or so!
 
For the ferrets,
Mike
