Hello, Everyone, We finally have a good chance to do something for the tiny kits that are found in petshops and at "exotic" shows that we just know are too young to be taken from their moms. Some are sick, some are too young to even eat the food that is presented to them. If we act right now we can all be Messengers of Hope for these little innocents. Dr. Sandra Kudrak-she of infinite patience and fortitude....has started the ball rolling, but she can't do it alone. None of the groups that are trying to help can do it without the FML membership. Right now, the number of letters that have been written are very low...we need a lot of them. Please, don't feel intimidated writing to people with an address of APHIS/USDA..they are on our side, or can be, if they only hear from us. Your letter needn't be brilliant or eloquent..just write something. It could even be very short. For the address please go to http://ferretcongress.org where you will even find ideas on what to write. Please Help our tinest kits............. Love, as always, Hope I am the Guardian of Hope. If you know a ferret in need and prayers or good wishes will help ease the pain, please let us know. Send us a note with the information and we will send our very best prayers or good thoughts in Hopes that the warm power of love will surround and comfort the precious little one - and the hoomans who loves them.
