Hello Everyone, I am proud to introduce the premier issue of Ferrets United, a new online magazine for ferret lovers around the world. While there are already many ferret resources on the web, we do have a new outlook and new features to offer to the online ferret community. Ferrets United is set to publish every other month to begin with. Each issue will have features written by recognized members of the ferret community and also will profile various shelters. In this issue we have an article on ferret care written by none other than Troy Lynn Eckert, one of the most well respected ferret shelter moms around. Ela Heyn is a columnist for Ferrets United giving us information on various herbal remedies available. Todd Leuthold is going to give us his unique outlook on The Fuzzbutt Rodeo Clowns. Our articles are also provided in Word .doc format for easy download. Ferrets United also has two very great features, a calendar where members of the ferret community may add their own events and also a links page that you can add your own links to. I hope that all the clubs and shelters will take advantage of these features to help publicize their activities so that more folks will have the chance to get involved. There is also a mailing list attached to the site, for use of anyone who wishes to. I will be notifying list members when a new issue is due, but I also welcome any chat, announcements or whatever members may want to post. Please drop by and check out our premier issue at: http://ferretsunited.netfirms.com Enjoy!! Margaret Merchant [Posted in FML issue 3577]
