Sponsors Needed Desperately!

Several of our shelter babies are looking for sponsors. As a sponsor, your monthly donation will help one or more ferrets receive the medical treatment they need as well as help feed them. Some of the ferrets need help with Lupron for Adrenal Disease. Some need help with Pred. for Insulinoma. And yet others have conditions such as dwarfism and heart issues. These wees will be difficult to find homes for yet each one needs special care and attention.

For a simple monthly donation of $10 (or $1 to $1 million) you can help assure one ferret will receive the necessary medical treatment he/she needs. All we request is you send the same amount each month (again $1 to $1 million!). In exchange for your generous donation, you can choose which ferret you'd like to help. A cage tag will be hung on their home designating YOU as their sponsor. We will gladly email you photos and updates about YOUR ferret. Won't you help?

Here are a few of the wee babes needing sponsors today!


This is Sugar and she is 8 years old. Sugar suffers with Adrenal Disease and is currently receiving treatment from Dr. Hankins. She would like a sponsor to help her with Lupron treatments.






This is Gracie who is about 4-5 years old. Gracie has a foster home but really needs a sponsor to help her get adrenal surgery. She also receives monthly Melatonin implants until she can have her surgery. As a foster, she gets the advantage of living in a home with other ferrets and lots of attention. The shelter is continually responsible for ALL of her medical treatments.



This is Rory who is about 3-4 years old. Rory is new to the shelter. We believe Rory has a genetic defect called Dwarfism. With this defect he has restricted use of his back legs and unusual size and shape of other extremeties, a possible heart defect, and has a somewhat reduced mental capacity. For a ferret his age, he plays like a kit and not a normal adult ferret. But how can you resist that face?
