After posting on the FML yesterday I did get a few responses from people interested in taking one or two of the kids and also from a rescue who has a foster mom willing to take in all 6 but it would take some traveling! I want to thank everyone who has responded. You guys rock!! Upon trying to get details figured out I received and email from a lady Linda that lives only 1/2 hour away from my friend that has the ferrets. She is a retired nurse and wrote "she has been owned by ferrets" for 14 years. ( That quote had me sold!!) She has been through all the ferret illnesses and is very knowledgeable with them. She currently has only 1 little girl since she had been taking care of her elderly parents for while and was unable to handle anymore at the time. Unfortunately her parents have since passed. She is now ready to fill her home with love again in the form of these 6 beautiful kids. She is heaven sent. A true angel!! I cried upon reading her email. My friend and I both cried together on the phone thinking that this whole mess is actually going to work out. She has a FN cage and I would like to get her some shelf/ramp covers for it. I would also really like to get her a set or some new bedding/blankets for these oldsters too. Just a jester to say "Thank you!" So I think our prayers have hopefully been answered and things are going to work out :) I will update everyone after this takes place. Also thank you to the emails I got to help here with the over crowding and ideas to lessen some of the work. Unfortunately with the economy things are tough and there have been a lot of surrenders. This crisis will end (I keep telling myself) and things will get back to normal. Well, semi-normal here at the rescue....... Until then these babies need our help. If anyone has any extra ferret playpens we are in need of them here. I personally hate cages except for the FN cages which I have 2 of but many more ferrets needing the room. I have found that using playpens here works great and is much easier to clean. My friend Jenny who also does hospice, abused and sick ferrets can also use them as the older ones have an easier time with them. If anyone call spare one please let me know! Kim [Posted in FML 6368]
