Hello fellow FML'rs, I am posting today, to let you know that Foster Ferret who posted last week that she was stepping back from the rescuing bit in IL is back in action. Of course, her heart wouldn't just leave these poor creatures and just forget about them. Right now, she is in need of supplies, cages, money to ransom them and most importantly homes for the fuzzies. If you can part with some of your hard earned money to rescue a poor, defenseless little ferret, please forward it to: Lynda Reid (aka Razz) 105 S. Drake Manhattan, KS 66503 She will forward it to Foster Ferret. If you want to send supplies or cages, please send them directly to: Ms. Szelmeczka (aka Foster Ferret) 56 Rock Springs O'Fallon, IL 62269 I think if anybody is willing to send cages, Greyhound would be the cheapest route for shipping. As for homes, we would like you all to know, that there are no more kits left, but the older ferrets are in greater need of homes anyways. He has mostly females left and none of the ferrets are fixed. A lot of the females are about to go into heat and would require fixing which of course would be an additional expense for people willing to take in the animals. Unless we could get enough donations to also get them spayed and neutered. He is charging anywhere from $20.00 to $30.00 per ferret and at this point Foster Ferret is using her own money to ransom the ferrets from this guy. She won't be able to get them all out if she has to depend on her own finances, which are limited. Please be generous and send whatever you can, supplies or money. If you were close by, you would probably be doing the same thing. I know I would try my da**est to get them all out of there. Thank you to all the lovely people that have already contributed to the cause. It is much appreciated. Please, help. Foster Ferret can't do this on her own.
