I copied this from one of my groups. Please help, if you can -- it can't be that hard to raise $300 for something like this, can it? ~Eri I have read this from another one of my ferret groups and this is very disturbing. This shelter in NJ, is needing help with these 2 ferrets. 1 has adrenal, and if they can not come up with the cash they are putting her down and her brother because he would have a broken heart. This is WRONG!!! Does any one know what to do, or is close by to get these babies out of there. please read From: LittleFurriesRescue Message 1 in Discussion Hi, I am new here although I might have been a member a few years back but I was sick and out of rescue for a while. We rescue small animals and are licensed to take in Ferrets as well, they have and always will hold a special place in my heart. We currently have 6 ferrets in our rescue and two that we are fostering for a shelter. My own weasel baby went to the bridge two years ago tomorrow due to old age. I am currently looking for a ferret savvy vet for a ferret in the central NJ area. Our rescue is having fincial problems at this time so we are unable to take in any more animals. We decided to foster a pair of ferrets for a shelter and we soon discovered that the female of the pair Cloe was in the early stages of Adrenal Disease. The shelter says that they can not afford to pay for the ferrets vet bill and neither can we. So if we do not come up with the money to have this girls surgery done, the shelter will be euthanizing her. Her brother whom she is extremely bonded to will either be euthanized along with her or have to suffer the heartbreak of his sister leaving this world when she doesn't have to! We have raised $80 of our own money by selling some things on ebay and cleaning out our already pretty bare change collection. And I know that it generally costs up to $300 because we have called around. We only have two weeks to raise the money, if we can not we have to sit by and watch poor Cloe be euthanized. I was going to add a picture of her but don't know how here. When I figure it out I will, she is only two years old. If anyone has any suggestions on how we can raise funds fast to save Cloe's life and if you have a NJ Doctor you can reccomend that isn't too overpriced please do email me. I have tried to post on other message boards but as usual the rescue world seems to be dominated by the cats and dogs and the little furries get left out! Even if someone would have responded back to me about vet advice I would have been happy but I heard nothing and one group actually told me they were going to remove me because I was requesting help for a ferret and not a cat or dog... sigh..
