I saw this on the ACME message board, and the person who posted it there asked to spread the word everywhere. She was in her local animal shelter and saw 2 ferrets. Here is the actual post: "I was just at the Humane Sociey near New London CT and they have two ferrets there. The cages are nasty with unwashed bedding and their furs is so yucky feeling I can't even describe it. I have been banned from there by my fiance so I have to stick with the four I have. One of them is a very sweet female that was left because the owner moved and the other is a frightened male who was a stray. If anyone is looking in the area here are two great little babies. I only payed $30 for the ferrets I got from there because they are so hard to place. In fact I payed $30 for the last two together." I hope someone in the area can go rescue those poor guys, even if just temporarily until a permanent home is found. I don't know how long the shelter will hold them or if they will euthanize them or give them to people who don't have ferret knowledge. [Posted in FML issue 3375]
