Jean, I can't right now because we are battling kennel cough in my group but once everyone is well again I could take a group of up to 5 of your little ones if we can arrange transport. We got double whammied with one strain from one group and another strain from another group and these two mutated to create a third strain so it's been quite the experience. I got them over the first 2 strains and then 3 months later this third strain popped up and it is a real doozy. My numbers haven't been up to 100 but years ago we had 84. All free roam special needs kids that weren't adoptable. Our numbers had increased dramatically when we helped out another ferret shelter in an emergency situation. My situation was a bit different than yours since my group is free roam and there weren't separate play/love/exercise times, but cleaning was a large task. Food, treats, ferretone, ferretvite, baby food, A/D, etc. are always a big expense and so is energy for cleaning, monitoring everyone, playing and loving, and vet bills of course. What is needed most is shelter situation specific. A shelter may be in need of food, or help cleaning, or bedding, or a number of other things. When wanting to help a shelter it's helpful to ask that specific shelter what they need or can use, what type of food they feed, etc. Gift certificates for supplies or food can be ordered from many on-line sites. Homes are always needed for shelter ferrets, foster homes are very helpful though it would be extra special if foster homes help with the finances of their foster ferrets too. hugs to all. tle www.ferretfamilyservices.org [Posted in FML 5477]
