Regarding your memo on Marshall Farms directing this little ferret to you. Thanks for your testimony. I have been writing about Ammonia's blindness and that I had contacted Marshall's to let them know, knowing I would never give her up, I "knew" they would kill her. They were wonderful and I have tried to get it across to everyone - I had the choice of taking her to a shelter and getting a receipt along with the vet confirmation and I could go pick out another kit (she was about 9 weeks old when the vet confirmed her blindness) or if I was too attached to her, to just get the vet confirmation and they would give me a gift certificate for accessories. We read so much in FML about how heartless Marshall's is. THAT action is not heartless. They understand even with a warrantee that a "defective" ferret is loveable and people may not want to give them up and they give you a choice. Thank you for your tale because it strengthens what I have tried to get across. My 3 little MF girls are magnificient. Millie and Easy Off - the most perfect ferret in the whole wide world Ammonia - the most not so perfect ferret in the whole wide world Cascade - The observe (they just have no dignity) Ajax - Yet to come as soon as Mama lets go of me.
