thank you to everyone who send me their vets. I believed I have
successfully faxed the USDA letters to the following clinics.
Avian & Exotic, Miami, FL
Carson Valley Vet Hospital
Middle Valley Animal Hospital, Hebron, KY
Phoneix Vet Hospital, Hixson TN
All Creatures Vet Care, PA
Raccoon Valley Animal Hospital, Mullica Hill, NJ
Animal Clinic of Farmers Branch, Dallas, TX
Wedington Animal Hospital, Fayetteville, AK
I was not able to find a fax number for these clinics.
Lakemont Vet Clinic, Altoon, PA
Deck Vet Clinic, Louisville, KY
Chadwell Animal Hospital, Abingdon, MD
Hebron Animal Hospital, Hebron, KY
If you still want to send me your clinic info, I can still take names and
do faxes. if you know the fax number for the above 4 clinic, send them
along as well. reattaching my original FML message for those that missed
it

hello all, I just had an idea on how to help. I have a fax machine
at home, and I thought if I could fax the IFC letter for vets and the
AFA sample letter to veterinaries, they may then make copies of the
letters and send it off. I'm sure many people on the list have already
taken the letters to their vet, but for anyone who doesn't have a
printer, or is far away from their vet (and is lucky enough not to visit
frequently), I'll be happy to fax the information to your vet for you.
this is approximately what I'll include as the cover to the fax. I'll
also include my contact info.
Hello, your client XXX gave me your practice as one they use to
provide care for their ferrets. XXX would like to inform you of
a USDA action to improve conditions for farm bred and petstore
ferrets. Please take a moment to read the attached document
provided by the International Ferret Congress. Please show your
support by writing a letter to the USDA. If your practice does not
leave you much time for a personal letter, please consider signing
the copy of form letter to the USDA provided by the American Ferret
Association.
This fax is sent from a fax machine of a private home in Canada.
Rest assure this is a one time fax and you will receive no further
correspondence.
I have already gotten permission from IFC and AFA to send their letters.
what I'll like from you is to send me the name of your veterinarian's
practice, and their fax number if you have it. if you don't have a fax
number, give me their practice's name, city, and state, and I'll do my
best to google the information. Please also give me your name so I can
fill in the XXX above. I really don't want to spam anyone!
send the info to me with a subject "Vet Info for USDA". I'll collect the
names for now and send out something next week or so. I'll let you guys
know how many vets I have contacted then.
many thanx.
Selina
