Hello, There have been several "found" ferrets in the Northern VA, Fairfax County area - I just received another call last night of one found in Springfield, but the finder will keep it until someone comes looking for it. I have two strays at my house that the "holding period" is up on, and Faith has a stray (or two) plus other adoptees. So if you are looking for a ferret, either a lost one or for a pet for yourself, there are several "resources" waiting for you to check out the kids. Contact [log in to unmask] or [log in to unmask] for appointments. BTW, I've had none of these strange virus' at my shelter (with half of my personal ferret's ages being 5 and up, I really don't need them), and ECE has not been an issue with the strays I've taken in. I don't know if ECE is dead here or everyone was pre-exposed. Anyway, would love to find homes for these ferrets.... Pam Troutman [Posted in FML issue 2436]
