Dooks All ~! In a previous post I mentioned that the Oregon Ferret Shelter handled an emergency rescue of a busyness of kids from an Idaho Breeder. A volunteer drove direct from the shelter and back to get these wonderful fur-brats (I think it was about a 13 hour trip). The 12 arrived safely and are making themsleves nice and comfy. Today is the day they will be bathed, nails trimmed, ears cleaned - you know the routine. We have encountered quite a few medical problems with the group. Most are blind. We have quite a few cases of cancer (mast cell, ueterus & testicular). All the kids will need to be spay / neutered. Quite frankly, we are looking at some big-time expenses The Oregon Ferret Shelter is placing an appeal for donations to help with these kids. The shelter has a Tax Deductible Status, so donations are tax deductible !!! Donations can be made in 3 ways !! Donations for medical care and expenses can be sent to the account of the Oregon Ferret Shelter at: COMPANION PET CLINIC Frederick Zborowski, DVM 14292-A SW Allen Boulevard, Beaverton, Oregon 97005 (503) 641-9151 / Fax (503) 641-7912 (they accept charge cards folks !!)

Every kid deserves a chance at a better life. Did I say the donations are TAX DEDUCTIBLE??? Oh, I did? Well, just a reminder <g>. Warm Fuzzies ~!~!
