welp,
greetings ferret lovers.
(and ferrets, FLO, etc.)
 
my geocentrism has gotten the best of me, and i wrote a letter the other
day asking if anyone could possibly help me by taking in a NE ferret.
unfortunately, i meant NE as in New England, and the sweetest woman from
Nebraska wrote me to let me know what a wonderful home she had for them.
(i am doubly crushed and almost considering trying to find the money to
fly them out there, though i worry, and it is summer.  it sounded like
such an incredible environment.  *bites lip*)
 
so my plea is, if there's anyone within five or so driving hours from
Rhode Island/CT/New Hampshire/Vermont (places i could stay overnight with
friends) please reread this article.  (i would travel further for the right
home for her, but i would only have one and a half days to do it in.  i
don't drive at the moment (part of the reason i need to find a safe haven
for my kids), and my friend who would help me has weird hours.)
 
thank you.
 
<looking sheepish> <feeling dumb> <fighting for my babies>
 
peace,
tatiana
with Bart and Yoshi not beside her. :(
