FFIRC received an abandonded ferret in our shelter on 6/24/92. So sad the small male was found in Fellsmere, Florida - a man told the Humane Society: "it just followed me down the street". The poor little guy is skin and bones - we are bringing him back to normal, healthy, loving ferret style by feeding him lots of nutrition: 1/3 Kay Tee Ferret Chow, 1/3 Purina Pro Plan Growth Formular and 1/3 Perform Cat Chow (mixed). He gets a tiny portion of Linatone once a day for the next 1 1/2 weeks, he also get various fruits and vegie snacks (not to much yet he needs his protein) and his altime (seems to be anyway) RRAISINS. On Saturday he goes for his vet check-up and his distemper shots and to check and see if he is strong enough to get his rabies shot at this time, if not he will get that later. He has his own cage, "blankies", hammock, snooze tube (it hasn't arrived yet), and soon a crinkle toy. He also has of course a large food bowl and water receptable. He is doing so well in potty training that we are all amazed. He is not allowed to play with Sweet Sam yet (hasn't been to the vet yet). Well just though you would like to be kept up to date am signing off now: Chere McCoy President Ferret Friends of Indian River County. [Posted in FML issue 0267]
