First off I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you wonderful folks who sent $$ to help get these kids from our local animal control. Without these funds, these sweet souls would have been euthanized. I know these times are hard on all of us and we are eternally grateful for all of you helping out. The first 4 I picked up were healthy and did fine. It didn't work that well with the last 2 I picked up. They wouldn't eat and their little tummies were a mess. The little girl truly had me worried. I wasn't sure she would still be with us. The sable boy wasn't quite as bad, I thought. Dr. Fred saw them today and pretty much confirmed what I thought. They were starving! I am so angry at our local animal control! I've been on the phone most of the day with one office and then another. I have proof of their condition and think it WRONG that all they want is $$! I think the person that surrendered the ferrets should be charged with animal cruelty. WIll it happen, probably not. Do I think they should rework their policy where ferrets are concerned.... most definitely! But, I wanted to let you all know they are on the road to recovery. With fluids, gravy, antibiotics and other meds, Dr. Fred said he feels they will be fine in a couple of weeks. They have started to eat some kibble and have normal poops! Wooohooo! From a very grateful Ferret Shelter Mom.......THANK YOU!! Linda & Kids Fuzzy Follies Ferret Rescue & Shelter [Posted in FML 6254]
