Support Our Shelters is continuing to ask for help with the vet bills for spaying or neutering the ferrets which were given up by a breeder in Michigan. Happily, this was not a bad situation for the ferrets. They are in good health and were well cared for. The breeder simply did not want to continue breeding, and four shelters in Michigan have taken 31 of the ferrets. Because they were breeders and not companion animals, they need some behavior rehab. They were not used to being handled. But those of you who have been on this list for a while have heard again and again how even abused ferrets usually learn to love being loved. What big hearts these little ones have! Anyway, even though the two vets who spayed/neutered 29 of the ferrets charged a reduced fee, the vet bills have totalled almost $2,800.00. Any help you could give to S.O.S. for these bills would be greatly appreciated. All the information for donating by check or by PayPal is below in my signature. Thanks so much!
