The Ferret Assn of CT was contacted about 4 ferrets on Long Island that need a shelter asap. Can someone in NY, NJ or PA help? FACT is over-loaded right now and we cannot take any more in at all. A lady on Long Island had a tenant leave behind 4 ferrets that she believes are relatively young. She's been caring for them for about a month and is willing to do so for a little longer but needs a shelter for them. The only local one she found that would take them said they would promptly put them down. (!) She doesn't want that to happen, she needs a REAL shelter . Her name is Miranda and her phone is 516-404-8539. She doesn't have e-mail. I told her I'd put out the word and SOMEBODY would reach out to her. Please let us know have been able to help. I know that there are a couple of big shows coming up so perhaps transport can be arranged if a shelter further on can take them? Alternatively, if anyone knows of a ferret-friendly humane organization on Long Island or in Southern New York, that would also be a viable alternative. Thank you, Ann Gruden [Posted in FML 7513]
