I agree completely with FY on her previous post about the comments and funds regarding the DMK ferrets. I (Misty) am from the Broward Ferret Rescue. Our DMK babies will be arriving on Tuesday. We will be getting seven. That is all we can handle right now as our shelter is at full capacity. We have over one hundred ferrets right now under the shelters care. Almost half of those ferrets are special needs ferrets. Those babies are taken care of by our members willing to keep them in there homes and care for them 24/7. We also have many fosters with other members. I will be housing the DMK babies here at my home as I wish to put as little strain on our shelter as possible. I have also been receiving the response that any donations given, from almost anywhere to benefit shelters, will be going to the Ohio rescue. As was stated earlier this is no longer needed to the full extent that was given. All of our shelters need HELP! I believe that all the shelters were stretched thin before the Ohio rescue but we all rose to the task. I have done my best to raise the funds for the arrival of our babies so as not to take away from our already needed babies. I have set up an EBay account, and have raided the houses of our member, so that money can be raised for them right away. I will be receiving help from a vet but that will also be costly. They are trying to raise the money for the bills. Its damn hard!! So I believe we need to redirect some of our energy back to the nations ferret shelters. Let me also say that I am extremely proud to be a part of a community that will stand up and fight for its own and handle the victory with immediate grace!
