Have they contacted the Austin club for assistance located ferrets needing homes? www.lonestarferrets.org They might also visit the message board at www.texasferret.org/ferret_talk and review the subtopic on placement and adoption. Sometimes folks seeking to find a new home for their ferrets post there, and we get folks all over the state. There's also an area where those wishing to adopt a new fuzzy may post.
