Hi All, Carol has asked me to write on her behalf and ask for help. She knows this is not a great time with what is happening in Louisiana. However, Carol is now SWAMPED with Ferrets. Carol is the only one in Tucson able to help Furkids right now. She has basically taken over the shelter in Tucson. She has about 32 Ferrets right now and has nine on the waiting list. Not Good. She is asking shelters for HELP. If you can take any Ferrets (Joanne from Sierra Vista already is already taking three--- Thanks Joanne) please contact Carol. We can figure out a way to get ferrets to Shelters and qualifying homes. This is unusual for Tucson because we are a college town and normally don't get this many rescues till college dorms empty and at this point college kids are just coming in. Carol has young and older Furkids that need forever homes ASAP. Or, if you can give a gift certificate for a Pet Store or to the Ferret Store please let Carol know. For those of you who don't know Ginny Childs who normally runs the shelter is still the President but is no longer taking Ferrets and only allowed to keep a few personal ferrets. Ginny is still involved but not feeling well (she just got out of a seven week hospital stay) Carol is basically running the club and shelter. If you can help in ANYWAY please contact Carol.
