I personally am shocked by the LOW figures for feed/litter. If I multiply my feed litter costs to equal her rescue number CONSERVATIVELY I would spend $4,980. Of course, this could easily be MUCH higher. I find that accounting to be very accurate. Paid workers? Well, not everyone has to know everything about ferrets to do the jobs. There are many non contact jobs to be done.Let's face it, people have to work, and cannot get paid time off indefintely, and this was not a task for the fainted-hearted. Screaming, biting, spraying, urine, feces covered ferrets? Not a walk in the park. The ferret building? Well, what else DO you do with hundreds of ferrets? JMO here obviously... Hate to hurt the one who brought these treasures out of that place. [Posted in FML 5812]
