There is a good ferret group on Long Island called New York Ferret Rights
Advocacy.
 
They have an active membership and frequently rescue, adopt out, or just
plain know where ferrets are.  The editors of Modern Ferret magazine are
members (it was great fun to meet them and their famous Marshmellow one
time!).  Try them at: [log in to unmask]  If this doesn't work, e-mail me
and I will give you the name and phone number.  They tend to meet in the
Merrick/Massapequa/Oceanside neighborhoods, if that helps you!  Good luck.
