The countdown begins... Sun Dec 9 at Midnight CST- The FRISKY FALL RAFFLE- Will be OVER. FRISKYBIZNUS Ferret Sanctuary, here in Houston,Texas, desperately needs your help. FRISKYBIZNUS is the last stop on the road for the unadoptables: those ferrets that are discarded, abused, tortured, neglected or old. We try our best to provide a safe, loving forever home where these ferrets will get all the love, attention and medical care they've been denied before they came here. That's what we do! That's what we are striving to continue doing. It's come to the point where we can barely keep our heads above water. Despite suffering from fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome, I hold down a full-time job and that is what has been supporting our sanctuary. Our coffers are being drained. I do not want to close down. Taking care of the Friskies is my MISSION, however I can no longer do it alone. Fundraising is the only way ferret shelters and sanctuarys can afford to keep our doors open. Many are closing...where does that leave these poor little ferrets? We desperately need YOUR HELP. We've been hosting an ON-LINE BENEFIT RAFFLE -The Frisky Fall Raffle- to help cover the steep medical /food and housing costs the Friskies require. We have so many AMAZING items in our raffle, donated by these very generous people. A HUGE THANK YOU to all of them...
