Shelter for many with the fees based on age?? Why? Saying you can not get a adoption unless at times give them away? Or reduce over age? Well you are leaving a "Let's make A deal" adoption. And in a way leave question why is the fees so varied? We never varied our pricing and clear explanation of our fees are reflected. Our adoption fees was 85.00 per ferret but this year we had to increase and our fees are 125.00 per ferret yeah a lot may seem to not come by. But the increase of adoptions is still happening. We do not discriminate a ferret over age. Plus our fees are explained in our adoption. So set fees and reflection well we have plenty of adoptions and as well it is not over a ferrets age and that older ones suffer due to high adoption fees. The added go home package is a big plus and with how we operate and being straight forward well we still conduct appointments rather often more so than before. We do not adopt out sick, special needs or diseased ferrets we keep them here and use them for education to our visitors. I can not tell you how many people really after seeing real life ferret conditions and process you will have to go through to care and why they will need to do more for the ferret when this happens. And instead of a bad adoptions a heart felt donation even on the donations will equal our adoption fee, and them thanking and saying I saw in books but never in real life? This is so helpful and convincing that well I could not handle this if it was to happen. Some even monthly send a small donation for the affect and realism I have demonstrated and show yes it does happen and as often. [Posted in FML issue 5316]
