thanks to all the friendly people who responded to my post..angela, hillary, and heather. you folks thought enough about ferrets to want to go a few extra steps to help. i appreciate it all! this little silver girl now has a home....and i found out she does have a name. minnie became nochio(as in pinnochio) when elise got her. elise only had her a little while and found out it was hard to raise a 3 yr old and a new baby while caring for a ferret. i am grateful to be able to count on fmler's to help me out.....i dont know how i would have been able to do this without you guys. to those who wanted to help: *hugs* i will be here if you ever need anything; or if you hear of a shelter needing anything....tell me about them. i will be as assistive to you and/or them as you were for me as it is the least i can do. thanks for everything--- malissa & my little gang of furry terrorist [Posted in FML issue 2837]
