I would think that you could call Animal control or the Humane Society in your area and report that these animals are not being provided with proper shelter or care. Even the most anti-ferret humane society would see the validity in your report. It would have been hard for me not to take those poor ferrets home with me and let the owner think they escaped. I sure hope this horrible situation is remedied quickly for the sake of the poor little ferrets. Cheers to all the sweet fuzzies Julie, Raz, Poncho and Mickey [Posted in FML issue 2455]
