Ferrets Are Available
For Adoption Now!
We want to emphasize first come, first served. We never know when a ferret comes here and when they are ready to go. We like saying this all revolves around Divine Timing! So please, get on the wait list if you're serious about wanting a ferret.
Let's keep it simple!
We just want to make sure the ferrets have the best home possible. We encourage free roam above all but understand when a cage is partially needed for the ferret's safety at times. They don't mind an open-door policy and settle down in one if they can choose it. Just remember, these are sentient beings with personalities, and are not ornaments to be brought out when YOU want to play. Try to see through the eyes of the ferret, staring through bars at you. How would it make you feel? These are rescues and they usually have issues due to cages.
The main haunts for ferrets are in blankets and under dresser drawers with a fuzzy sweater. Be careful with piles of laundry, too. They love to burrow, needing total darkness. Anything that's enclosed makes a haunt!
Consider what pets you currently have, especially dogs. Can you guarantee the safety of the ferret as it free roams? If not, get a gerbil or hamster. When it comes to cats, ferrets eat on the floor, and so do cats. Cat food is terrible for them; it's a fast track to disease due to pea products. Consider the cats safety, too; ferrets play hard! We had a ferret here that was mauled by a cat, so be wary of your situation.
Also consider your children's maturity level when it comes to owning ferrets. Kids are great with them but must remember that ferrets are fragile and can easily be hurt.
SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY, PLEASE!
We appreciate your interest but think it over! I've had people contact me then float away, never a peep again. Then my inner Karen comes out, and it's worse, because I'm a FERRET MOM! I don't mess around when it comes to their well-being. Sure, ask questions but let me know, hey or nay, what your intentions are. The ferrets are waiting for a loving home, don't get in the way!
If you were on the wait list before and never heard back, let me know if you are still interested!
"Emmett and Ozzy, Bella and Stella" were Adopted!
"Sirus Black, Lucius Malfoy, Mark Dwight"
This is a great group of brothers! Formerly from a family of 8, they have paired themselves down in various ways since getting here, and these 3 play together all the time. Sirus Black is a 3-year-old Blackfoot. Lucius Malfoy is a white albino with pink eyes and Mark Dwight is white with dark eyes. Both are 2 years old. These are vibrant males who love to play! Make sure you have plenty of space for them to roam freely. They are very independent, sleep in assorted haunts like under dresser drawers or piles of blankets, or hammocks around our place. The white boys have thin tails, but not bare, so that could be normal for them. They are all gentlemen and quite sweet but are rowdy males and play hard; older kids would be better.
"Sophie and Chip"
Sophie and Chip, both two years old, were part of the group of 8. She was kind of wound up when getting here but has since calmed down to normal levels. She is very cute with white boots and a thick tail and is totally in love with herself. Her brother Chip is a very mellow guy, brown like milk chocolate. They balance each other in many ways and are great together, more so than with the other boys who can get rowdy. They are independent as well, especially Sophie, who should never be confined again.
"Luna"
Luna is a Blackfoot girl, around 3 years old. She has thinning fur on her tail, will need an adrenal shot in the near future. Since being here, that tail hasn't thinned any worse, so it's a good sign for her health. Luna loves to cuddle, has no problem being a single ferret. She is gentle with people and worthy of a great life! Poor thing lost all her family but is bravely moving on. A very independent lady! Luna might have reached the point to stay here with us, so it's her last chance for adoption.
As for L'Shomps, she will be staying. Her tail is bare, kind of aggressive with others, needs the shot too much and there's a line ahead of her so it won't be anytime soon.
We have a few other pairs of ferrets available and will list them as soon as they are ready!
