Hello again to all of you. Tonight I'll send some information about the terrible world the animals would fall into if left behind here in Ethiopia. [next post] I do not want to write about it because it is horrible. I will though, because you'll immediately see why I would not leave them, and how much they (and I) need your help. **SO** Bid early and often, up to NOON JAN 2, WEST-COAST TIME. The auction's been extended, and we're up to $25! The info's below, slightly updated with ****new info.**** - - - - - - - - >Hello Ferret Friends, > >As many of you know, I need to move my ferrets and other animals out >of Ethiopia and back to the US. ***** If left behind, the ferrets, dogs, cats, and the injured donkey would all die nasty deaths within a short time. The mother and baby donkey would suffer a hard, abnormally short life. ***** >You can read about my project for transporting the animals to America >and see several photos of my animals and me here: > > http://www.gofundme.com/1l8da0 > http://s1144.photobucket.com/albums/o492/celebrateoften/ **** Here you can see pix of one of my cats, Alula, who fell into a pit of inadvertent abuse and then was rescued ***** <http://s1144.photobucket.com/albums/o492/celebrateoften/Alula%20as%20infant%20then%20kitten%20then%20teen%20then%20adult/> Soon I will make myself describe a few common deliberate abuses. >A kind friend in the US has donated this nice silver ring in the form >of a ferret that's wrapped itself around your finger. > > http://pic20.picturetrail.com/VOL74/133183/8541089/405016162.jpg > >Let's have an auction! > > 1.
