This is just a suggestion not anything against FAA they have done great
things for the ferret community and in getting ferrets to new homes,
however they are not the only transportation source. FAA could not
easily provide transport for every ferret that needs to go to every
new home or shelter. It would just be a huge undertaking, however why
not take another avenue?

There are dozens of other transoprt organizations out there that may be
willing to help.
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TRUCK-N-PAWS
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PetTransportNet
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/IMOM-xpress
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/RescueTransport
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NHARescue
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/allbreedrescue
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/RescueAngelsonWheels

And the list goes on. Most of these names were pulled from the listing
on http://rainbowsbridge.com/ and there's many more to find just by
serching the internet for volunteer pet transport. This could be very
beneficial if the organization is already doing a run from Ohio to
somewhere near a shelter or pottential adoptee. Some of these
organizations could be more than willing to help out with transport
just in itself for the ferrets.

If FAA had to transport every ferret to their new home or shelter
resources would be exhausted quickly. So attempt to contact other
organizations to help spread the work around. This will get ferrets out
of Ferrets Dream House faster and help lighten the load more quickly
than by using one organization alone.

Just because we're a ferret centered community doesn't mean that other
organizations won't help out on behalf that they are, in general, a
rescued animal and need the same help and support as all others.
