Thank you everyone for a great year. This year we were able to make the difference in approximately 45 ferrets (who were rehomed) and another 26 which remain in the shelter, but who will have a Merry Christmas and Plenty of presents. Thanks to everyone of my secret Santa's who gave my shelter kids such wonderful gifts and the love they sent with them. Without public support, I could not continue to do what I love to do. Updates: Irwin and Anna (He has Lymphoma). Irwin continues to be in remission. He got all his hair back and then some. He still sleeps alot but when he is awake he dooks and dances. He also gain that great winter weight! Calista and Harrison (The Starved Ferrets from the pet auction). Both these guys have made huge progress. More then even I can believe. She is filling out wonderfully and is getting a brand new coat for Christmas. Even her little bald tail! New photos are on my Petfinder Page, so check her out. She still has balance issues and we must keep towels down for her to walk on, but she is just the sweetest little gal. New Crew Right Before Christmas-We did a 6 ferret rescue of which 4 need surgeries. One boy is scheduled for Jan. 5th, 2004. Please, help us achieve our goal of getting all these babies taken care of and the surgeries done, but checking out our Ebay auctions. Thanks to everyone who purchased Christmas gift tags, magnets and address labels. We make everyday and birthday ones now also, so check them out. Also customized with your ferret's photos! They make great gifts for birthdays or just for so. And last but not least. This Christmas Day, remember all the shelter mother's and dads. We don't get to just kick back to relax and enjoy the Holidays, we still have pans to be scooped, food to be filled, cages to vacuum, water bottles filled, meds to be given, and ferrets to love. (Which by the way is not the hard part!). Give them a quick call and tell them Merry Christmas, it will brighten their days!
