Greetings. I've been trying to contact a shelter in Laurel Maryland, but I never get any calls returned. I also can't find a street adress in any phone book. All I have is the name and number. The owners names are Lucia and David Ditch, and they run the Howard County Ferret Shelter. I have some items I'd like to donate to them since I'm down to only one fuzzy currently. I have a large littler box, 2 water bottels, toys, bedding and some dishes that can fit onto any cage. Is there any other shelters in my area? I live on Ft. Meade, by Columbia or Laurel. I'm interested in possibly getting a playmate for Dallas. Also, I'm hoping to attend the ferret show in Annapolis this weekend, but I have no idea where in Annapolis it is. I've only been there once in the past 5 years. Any directions from the Baltimore area would be helpful. This is my first one, and I'm excited about it. Aimee in Fl. I lost your e-mail address. Post me when you get time so I know how your doing and such. Thanks for listening. Joan & Dallas [Posted in FML issue 1697]
