Got a call this morning from a shelter who's in the Austin area. Rick & Candi White gave her my number. She told me she recently had a number of ferrets "unloaded" on her, and a neighbor complained.... upshot is she has one week to place out most of the ferrets in residence or zoning/animal control will pick them up. She's been sheltering in that same location for some years, and never had a problem with zoning or any neighbor in the past. If you're anywhere in her area, or know anyone who can take in even one or two ferrets, please contact her. I don't have an email address for her on hand, so either contact the Whites ([log in to unmask]) or ask BIG to forward your addy to me and I'll email you her phone number. She has approx. 2 dozen that haven't been placed already. No, she hasn't tested for ADV yet, but since she works for a vet it can probably be arranged. TI -C [Posted in FML issue 3822]
