Dooks All ~!
 
In a previous post I mentioned that the Oregon Ferret Shelter handled an
emergency rescue of a busyness of kids from an Idaho Breeder.  A volunteer
drove direct from the shelter and back to get these wonderful fur-brats (I
think it was about a 13 hour trip).  The 12 arrived safely and are making
themsleves nice and comfy.  Today is the day they will be bathed, nails
trimmed, ears cleaned - you know the routine.
 
We have encountered quite a few medical problems with the group.  Most
are blind.  We have quite a few cases of cancer (mast cell, ueterus &
testicular).  All the kids will need to be spay / neutered.  Quite frankly,
we are looking at some big-time expenses
 
The Oregon Ferret Shelter is placing an appeal for donations to help with
these kids.  The shelter has a Tax Deductible Status, so donations are tax
deductible !!!  Donations can be made in 3 ways !!

Myself and my kids hope that you will join us in helping these guys out.
The ferts I handled last night were very sweet, but very scared.  Every
kid deserves a chance at a better life.
 
Did I say the donations are TAX DEDUCTIBLE???  Oh, I did?  Well, just a
