Lisette adn Karen have been most generous in donating some very special items for your bidding pelasure. We send thanks to you ALL! Today brought snowflakes adn a few tears at Ferret Wise as Beau returned form the crematorium after his passing to the Bridge and at 6 PM our old guy Skipper and 8 -9 year old rescue fromBelmont NH, passed on to join his long lost friend Fat Rat at Rainbow Bridge. These very special needs kids are what comprise the majority of residents at Ferret Wise. The ones who have multiple health issues and are of advanced age. Or those who have behavioral problems which prohibit them form living in a "normal" ferret home. We do our best to provide healthy food, warm and clean housing and love so they have a quality life. It is with the help of all our friends we are able to continue to provide in our 4 hospice locations for these furry little refugeesas well as continue the education programs - or assist in legislative issues in other states ( 2 calls today from FL for age of sale info). We do all we can at Ferret Wise -- to make life better for the little ones who depend on human friends.. and thank you all for helping us continue the work.
