Hi, My vet recently introduced me to a woman that does wildlife rescue in the Los Gatos (CA) area. Last month, someone turned in a ferret. She knew better than to turn the poor thing in to the SPCA, and luckily the owner found her pretty quickly. I've given her CDFA (CA Domestic Ferret Assoc.) info, but I'm wondering if there are any other groups/people in CA that do ferret rescue work. I'd like to forward all info to her asap. Please email me directly ([log in to unmask]) and I will post a summary to the list if there is any interest. Thanks in advance.

I don't have ferrets myself (I've been subscribing for my sister, who has ferrets but no internet access) but I've enjoyed reading the joys and woes of the ferret owners. This is one of the few newsgroups (perhaps the only one) where I can tell ya'll that I had to put my companion of 10 years, a dog whom I had showered with all my maternal affections, to sleep last Monday. It was hard, even though I've known the time was coming, and I've shed countless tears. Even though she was a dog, I think ya'll will sympathize with me and my broken heart. But that's not why I'm writing (sorry, kind of got sidetracked there.) I graduated, I'm leaving the country, and the university is going to disconnect my access, so it is with regret that I ask you,Chris, to delete me. Thanks to all of you--you've been kind and honest and helpful with your thoughts feelings, and knowledge, through people's personal tragedies.
