I heard from both Lisa and April today, and it appears that these ferrets are in the best of care. Being a longtime ferret owner in Colorado, and having adopted three from this particular person in 2002, I was appalled that this situation came to pass. These rescuers have had the ferrets looked at by a very special ferret veterinarian, so I feel assured they are in the best of hands. It is truly special that there are enough ferret people in the Colorado Front Range to quietly take this horrendous situation and simply deal with it. Thanks you guys, these ferrets are lucky, lucky, lucky! I will be looking forward to hearing their stories, the outcome of the rescue, and if you need further assistance. [HA] [Posted in FML 6267]
