I very seldom post so not many of you know me. I volunteer at Especially Ferrets, a rescue shelter in Denver. I take care of 14 little guys in the sick room including Koto our wonder boy who came to us paralyzed. There are three of us, so someone is there around the clock. In the past four days we have received about 15 surrenders. Surrenders are increasing, but not adoptions. The needs are great for Totally Ferret for Show and Active Ferrets and Totally Ferret for Older Ferrets (all ferrets are on or slowly changed over to this food) medicine and medical costs. Koto our paralyzed wonder boy, Trouble our 10 year old, Mina our 7 & 1/2 year old and many others who will never leave the shelter are in need of sponsors $10 a month or $120 a year will pay for their needs and care. You will receive a photo and a letter from the ferret you sponsor. I am posting this because I see Randy and Gloria going without what they need for the growing number of ferrets in the shelter. Randy and Gloria do not know what they have given to me. I am disabled and have been mostly home bound for several years. All the ferrets and Randy and Gloria have given me my life back. When I come into the sick room in the mornings little heads pop up from out of blankets and hammocks happy to see me. What more could one want. This is also a thank you post to Randy and Gloria for their caring and friendship for me when I needed it most. I only want to give back to them and the ferrets something they need, especially the sponsoring of a ferret. I love them all. The address is below.
