Hi Stacey...
 
>>5. I am not well informed about these ferret shows/exhibitions etc., can
 
someone let me know where/when they are, I would love to get more involved
 
and possibly attend some!
    Be sure to check out the info on Ferrets 2000 in Toronto at
<www.ferretaid.org> Coming up in a couple of weeks!
 
>>8. Who would you say would be the most knowledgeable Ferret Vet/Specialist
 
in North America?  (This is a piece of info.  I would like to have in my
 
records)
   Dr. Charles Weiss practices in Maryland
Dr. Bruce Williams does research
there are a number of others too of course, but those 2 come to my mind right
away
 
9. What type of help can I provide to any of the Ferret Shelters, I do
 
not have a lot of money but would like to be able to help in some way, if
 
possible?
   A list of many US and Canada shelters is published from time to time thru
the FML which lists their needs [Bill--how do you access the most recent
one?]; also, if you ask a specific shelter person, they can probably tell you
things they need...
 
best wishes!
