Hey ferret lovers- An observation and a question: First the observation. These ferrets are powerful creatures. I have had ferrets for a decade and I love them more today than when I began. These tiny little critters provoke such emotional responses and strong support from their humans it never ceases to AMAZE me. Think about it....Lobbying, smuggling, aiding and abetting, endless cleaning, rescuing and sheltering, showing, breeding and most of all LOVING. Entire organizations dedicated to CHANGING LAWS to legally have the domesticated ferret. They are lucky to have such dedicated people on their sides, as we are lucky to have them touch our lives in the special way that they do. Secondly the question. I am in the Miami Florida area and have yet to see a posting from here. Does anyone know of ferret organizations here??? Clubs??? I know of one excellent shelter but she is sooooo busy I hate to call her. Right now there is some ECE going around, but it is a well kept shelter. I send them $ from time to time to help. If anyone would like to adopt in the South Florida area, email me and I will forward their info to you. Thanks for listening.
