Andrea, Several ferret clubs and organizations have already created ferret 'brochures' suitable for use in pet stores. The AFA, STAR*, and local groups such as LAFF (here in northern Virginia) I believe have such things available. You might want to talk with these groups before you work very hard at re-creating such a pamphlet. Especially given the fact that merely having a fancy title such as American Ferret Association on the pamphlet will make stores and patrons more receptive to reading/believing the information. I'm sure you are doing a good job and your heart is DEFINITELY in the right place - so this is just FYI. You can reach these organizations through the address and phone numbers in Pam Grant's START list. Maybe you might want to get involved with one or more of these groups. bill and diane killian zen and the art of ferrets [Posted in FML issue 1204]
