Hello:
You sell ferrets online?!?!?  Just how do you screen your buyers?  You
know the shelters receive enough fuzzbutts from people that don't know
what they are getting into (ooooo... they poop!).  Please stick with
supplies only.  There are enough breeders out there.
 
And at nine weeks you neuter and remove sent glands?!?!  Neutering
wouldn't be done until six months of age and the sent glands should NEVER
be removed!  This is their only mode of protection.  I guess you would
declaw a cat also?  Another thing... you ship without a person caring the
ferret?  Have you seen how the cages are handled on airplanes?  Did you
know you don't have control of the air circulation in the "hold"?  It may
overheat or freeze at anytime.  You have already made the Ferret Mailing
List and I feel that you will be getting a few of these letters.  Please,
please, please do not sell ferrets online.  There is no control of who
gets them or your shipping.  I'd say 90% of your babies will end up dead
or in a shelter in the first six months of ownership.
 
Thank you for reading this... This is not a "flame" but a voice crying out
for our little furry ones.
 
Thank you again,
Fuzz Butts
 
P.S.: This is also being sent to the FML in hopes that others will follow.
