We are busting at the seams here with good wonderful beautiful ferrets. We have a foster program of over 40 older maintenance ferrets that are spread out in individual homes with not more than 7 ferrets in each but we have over 40 healthy ones here at the shelter. We have been contacted by Austin Rescue and are sending some there and a rescue in Arkansas. Each have few ferrets and lots of applicants and we have too many here. As our reputation has grown, we are getting them from all over El Paso, Wichita Falls, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana...... transported in by vehicle. We will not ship so our problem is the people have to come here to let the ferrets pick them to be able to adopt. We need someone who can do a home visit/check of the rescue in Arkansas before I will release to her. It would be just to make sure she has the facilities to accommodate the ferrets in a healthy environment and they are not boxed in little cages til they are adopted. This is Van Buren, Ark. If someone would do this and take a couple of digital pictures, I would appreciate is as well as her. Please write me direct.
