About 6 months ago our large family moved from Montana to TX and some of you may remember that I did help some furr babies up there find homes but since we were moving realized that Fort Worth (DFW in general) probably had a ferret rescue and our new place was not going to be suited for helping very much and I was right. Since we moved here we have been ripped off for several thousand dollars by a landlord who rented us a house that was condemned for occupation forcing us to move again and no real way to recover the money we have spent. So we had to move into a rather sad area of town with our last dollars and try to make it on our own. In that time we lost 2 of our older ferrets and had made some friends in the area that must have told someone they knew about our ferrets because last week someone dropped off a box with 3 half dead ferrets in it. One was in death throws (died within hours but was rocked and loved to the end), one clearly is suffering from adrenal disease and the other is just thin and lacking in coat plushness. We had to downsize and gave away a good bit of our supplies and cages away before the move and only brought what we needed for our 3 and I am hoping to save the ones that have come and offer them some chance at a happy life considering they have been dumped and have suffered. I am asking for help with any food and supplies to help these guys get back on their feet and any help that can be offered for the guy who is sick as I do not have cash right now for meds to help him be well. We hope there are those out there that understand how much we want to buy them everything but are struggling just to take care of ourselves and realize there is likely shelters here locally that are overflowing as it is. Even an older hammock not being used or maybe a bag of treats your baby does not like would be a blessing to these two sweeties. Also any suggestions for a ferret vet here in Fort Worth that would help for very reduced cost would be great if anybody knows any. Thanks so much! Anje Duckels [log in to unmask] [Posted in FML 7548]
