Hello folks- Bear FerretWise here!! I am REALLY getting excited about the "Teddy Bear Picnic" on Sept 11th! Hope you are planning to visit. There are advance registration formas for any one who would like one-- some of the contests are pre registered--- so email the shelter folks they will mail them out. McKenzie the Great will be here to assist for the Ferret Tarot readings -- these donations will benefit the shelter kids! Trophies are being made for the following events: Ferrets Walk ( walk a thon) , Tent City Tournament, Best Ferret Tattoo (modeled by human), Ferret Furthest Traveled ( to picnic event), Senior Ferret in Attendance, Fastest ferret (timed event). Also There will be a floppy duck race, fishing for ferrets game, cutest ferret photo ( entry fee and advanced registration required)... and lots more fun contests. We look forward to seeing the Ferret Store folks here-- and all the various shelter folks who have been here each and every year... they bring such wonderful ferret goodies! A special celebration cake is being planned.... In addition to the good food the human folsk munch on at picnic. ALSO- We are awaiting confirmation on the Ask The Vet -- "specialist"-- so stay in touch! AND FINALLY- for this event only -- SPECIAL PRICES ON TOTALLY FERRET FOOD!!! email the above address for more information... all orders must be picked up at this event for the price savings!
