That's another nice thing about older ferrets, you already know what
their temperament is like.  :)
 
Here's what I have for Chicago, I have no idea if it's in the NW
suburbs, though:
 
Greater Chicago Ferret Assoc. Ferret Shelter
P.O. Box 7093
Westchester, IL  60154
Contact:  Mary Van Dahm  708 964-GCFA
 
I believe they have a rather strong club as well.
 
Give her a call and see what she has in.  It's possible that she just
got the "Most wonderful, potty trained, ferret she's ever met" in just
this morning... ;)
