Hello everyone, Heather went to Animal House on 4th St (and 62nd Ave N) in St Pete to get some ferret supplies. I had previously sworn off this dreadful store after we rescued Arthur from it over a year ago. However, it was the closest pet store for her to go to on her lunch break. In talking to one of the girls there about Arthur, the worker mentioned that MF ships lots of kits to them already sick. She said every other shipment is full of sick kits and they have to send them back. It breaks my heart to think about it, as we all know what happens when they get shipped back. Anyway, to get to the real point of my story, a six month old (maybe older) ferret was dropped off at Animal House 4 or 5 days ago. She is a female blaze, maybe a little over a pound. She had been living with her family in a car without food or water. She's very thin. Heather was thinking about us taking her, but with 7 of our own, we're at our capacity. The girl told Heather she could come back on Sunday and talk with the manager named Steve. She thought that once the ferret is healthy they would either sell her or possibly adopt her out. What bothers me is that they have her integrated with the rest of the kits there, without knowing her circumstances or health. So...if anyone in the area can take her on, Sunday would be the best day to go, as far as we've been told. Thanks! Heather and Becky and the Magnificent Seven [Posted in FML issue 4099]
