Foster Homes and Pet Sitting Needed for the Holidays!

 Foster parents are needed for the upcoming holidays, as well as in general, because our local shelters are close to capacity. Does anyone want to volunteer to be a foster parent? Usually, the procedure is to take the ferret in, get it a check up, make sure it has shots (rabies & distemper), try to work with minor health/behavior problems, if necessary (litter training, earmite/flea eradication, socialization, nip training), interview prospective adopters, then adopt them out. If there is anyone who might be interested in providing temporary homes for ferrets or helping to interview adopters, please let Karen Marsh-Lovvorn know.

Shelter Information and Contacts

 Please support your local ferret shelters. If you are unable to donate financially, they can also use ferret/kitten food, old t-shirts, sweatshirts, towels, toys, water bottles, food dishes and other ferret accessories, laundry detergent, and paper towels.
