We just wanted to add a few words to the recent frustrating comments made by Alicia. We currently have 17 ferrets in our care. We have had as many as 30. We take in the unwanted, old, sick, biters, etc. We are not licensed therefore we support our ferrets ourselves. Many of these ferrets have come from a licensed shelter. If these ferrets weren't taken in by us the shelter would have to support them and not be able to take in as many adoptable ferrets as she is able to do. Alicia, we think that maybe your effort should focus on the great work that you do rather than on 'competition' concerns. You do wonderful things for our very beloved ferrets however, so do many other caring individuals. Hopefully, you were just spouting in anger before you thought because it would be a shame if ferrets suffered because you got upset over misunderstood typed words. We will continue to take in the unwanted, etc as that is where our hearts lie. No words on the FML or anywhere else can change our hearts. Hopefully, you will continue to do what you do as well. Sincerely Cheryl, Wendy and our beloved 17 ferrets [Posted in FML issue 4489]
