I cry every time I see the ASPCA ad on T.V. featuring Sarah McLaughlin's song and photos of sad, homeless, neglected animals. I am supportive of the ASPCA and their efforts. HOWEVER, I do notice that ferrets are apparently INVISIBLE or maybe they don't need ANY help. They are never shown or mentioned by the ASPCA. At first, I thought maybe the ASPCA dealt only with dogs and cats. This is NOT the case. I guess I am overly sensitive, but I receive email updates from the ASPCA and noticed that even their logo doesn't include ferrets. It is an animated logo that is formed by animal shadows coming together to form the shape of the US. There are even FISH included, but none of our fuzzy ferret friends. Aren't they the #3 pet around the world? After a visit to Julianna's (FBOG- Ferret Business of Georgia shelter) today, maybe I am just more aware of how many ferrets are cast aside and need homes. Doesn't the ASPCA know this? I am going to pick up my Petfinder's/ ASPCA yard sign tomorrow and I will follow their request to send in a picture of us with the sign and it will definitely include two of the "Forgotten Pets"- Loki and BART!. I will also include a copy of this post. If any of you have communication or donations to the ASPCA, ask them why and how they are unaware of the needs of pet FERRETS.
