 ROSS
AND CHACO
Ross- Beautiful stocky alpha male. He loves all ferrets and often seeks
out the sad or sick ferrets and cuddles with them. He is sleeping with
Chaco here because Chaco’s allergies where making him feel bad. Ross has
Adrenal Disease and requires a shot once a month. He is 5 ½ years old.
Chaco- This beautiful sweet and playful little boy has a rare immune
deficiency called Pemphegus. He requires large doses of medications
twice a day. If he goes longer them 12 hours without medication his face
and throat starts to swell. He is very playful on his good days and even
is bad days. He is doing well on his medications. He is 1 ½ years old. #
Monthly vet bill for each:
Ross
Chaco
$15.00
$20.00~ |
 Winchester
A unique character that strongly dislikes other ferrets but loves his
people. He is mostly bald and 6 years old but that doesn’t hold him
back. Winchester stops eating when he feels he is not being loved enough
and enjoys showing off especially for strangers. He chuckles the whole
time he is awake and is always making weird noises that you don’t
normally hear coming from a ferret. Winchester is full of life and
unfortunately may soon have to be switched to a more expensive
medication for his Insulinoma because he is getting bacterial infections
related to his current medication. He also receives monthly treatment
for his adrenal tumors which will help grow back that hair!
Monthly Treatment and Meds: $25.00

 BISHOP
(the sock thief)
When Bishop came to us he was naked everywhere with the exception of his
legs and a crown of fur on the top of his head. He look like he was a
drunk naked Russian who only remembered to put is furry boots and hat on
before he went out in the snow. He has adrenal tumors and is too old for
the surgery. He has additional prostate problems caused by the tumors
that require a very expensive medication every month. Bishop is the
first ferret that we have ever had to consider putting down due to
finances. We don’t want him to suffer; but without the medication (that
we cannot afford) his is very uncomfortable. When he has the medication
he plays and plays and plays with the other boys. His favorite hobby is
stealing freshly cleaned balled up socks and adding them to his “stash”
under is bed. If you cannot afford to pay a full month for Bishop we
would appreciate any partial donations to keep him happy and healthy. He
is 5 ½ years old. He has a bulldog physique and is very cuddly. There is
no other like Bishop
Treatment every three weeks: >$15.00
Medication per month: $181.00

 BLITZ
(albino)
It is very hard to get a good picture of Blitz. He is a 6 year old with
an abundance of energy. He keeps up with ferrets 5 years younger. I
could only catch him with the camera while he was sleeping or eating. He
loves his best friends: Chaco, Jimbo, Justin and Stewy, He has adrenal
disease and requires a shot once a month to keep him healthy and happy.
He was naked when we got him and his hair grew in yellow…which sometimes
happens with the Albino ferrets who have to have Lupron shots. This
wonderful boy has a great time at his foster home. He is not much of a
snuggler but he loves to pounce on the back of his foster mommy’s legs
so she will chase him around in game of tag. The picture on the far
right is him sleeping with his buddies: Justin Chaco Bishop Jimbo then
Blitz.

 PUREX
(PRINCESS TATER TOT)
This little compact muscular pistol is quite an adventure. Her picture
here was directly after she had a glandular tumor removed from her neck.
You can see that ”what exactly happened while I was asleep” look on her
face. She is 5 and decided a long time ago that her foster mommy’s bed
is now exclusively a “Purex Bed”. She now has to be caged at night while
her foster mommy sleeps; otherwise she finds a way into the room and
scratches her foster mommy’s legs and back until she can have the bed to
herself. She is completely deaf and screams bloody murder anytime she
plays and it is very evident she has no idea what she sounds like. She
has Adrenal tumors and is Insulinoma. She requires oral medications
twice a day and treatment at the vet once a month. She is happy and full
of life and we would like her to stay that way for as long as she can.
Please help this Princess.
Monthly Treatment and Meds- $20.00

 STITCH
Yes, there once was a Lelo…but his woman passed on. Stitch has Adrenal
tumors and is Insulinoma. He is a wonderful boy at 6 years old. He came
to us with terrible deep scabs all over his coat and he itched terribly.
He requires oral medication twice a day and treatments at the vet once a
month. Since his treatment and meds started working he is a very happy
and healthy boy in his foster home. He was raised on fast food so it
took a long time to get him on a healthy diet and get is lustrous coat
back. But still, if he is being stubborn…. A French fry will work every
time. He likes McDonald's.
Treatment and Medications Costs per month: $20.00 |
 STEWY
This little guy is a ball of atomic energy! We have recently found that
he has at least one Adrenal Tumor that needs to be removed. He is
running rampant at his temporary foster home, giving all the boys a run
for their money. He thinks Purex (she is deaf so she screams at
everything, not knowing how loud it sounds) is his personal squeaky toy,
and he thinks it is hilarious. He is young enough to be adopted
to a permanent home just as soon as he has his surgery and is recovered.
Surgery: approx $125.00
Until we can afford surgery his month treatment is: $15.00

 JOEY
This beautiful little boy has a curled back foot from a birth defect. He
loves life. He keeps up with the rest and takes his meds like a champ.
He loves to cuddle and wrestle with the other boys. He has Adrenal
Tumors and Insulinoma. He has a shot once a month for the Adrenal
Disease and he takes his medication for his Insulinoma mixed in turkey
baby food. He is soooo loved. He deserves the best and we hope to give
it to him for his many years to come. He is 5 years old. How can anyone
not fall in love with this little cuddle bug.
Treatment per month: $15.00
Medication per month: $5.00

 FARRAH
5 years old., sickly, repeated infections.
Farrah is the most curious ferret I have had the pleasure to love. She
simply adores stuffed animals. I put a pile of stuffies in the middle of
the living room floor. My children and I are so amused watching her take
each, one by one, and place them in her favorite hiding spots. She is
fantastic with the kids (8yrs and 2yrs). Her favorite time is when I
come home from grocery shopping. She loves exploring the various bags.
She is simply tickled by the sounds of the plastic bags. Farrah would be
a great addition to anyone's home as she has brought love and laughter
to mine. –from her foster MOM
Basic Care per month: $5.00

 HONOR
Honor has come to us completely naked. He has advanced Adrenal tumors
and needs Lupron shots every 4 weeks so he can grow his hair back. He is
a little oinker, he loves to eat and loves to cuddle. We will be looking
for a permanent foster home for him as soon as he grows his hair back.
There is something about these hairless ferrets. They give the most love
and warmth. We hope to provide him with health and happiness for the
rest of his life.
Monthly Treatment + Meds: $20.00

 JIMBO
Jimbo and Julie came to us completely naked. Julie passed away shortly
after they were surrendered due to cancer. Jimbo was almost lost to the
depression that often happens when they lose their friends. But the boys
(Ross, Chaco, Justin) quickly rallied around him and lifted his spirits
so he pulled through and has been on Adrenal treatment for around 8
months now. He is too old to have surgery but the monthly Lupron shots
are working wonderfully for him. He loves to play with is friends and
with his foster Mommy. His Mommy can get him to do anything she wants as
long as he knows there is a treat in her hand. HE LOOOOOVVVVES HIS
TREATS! He has a beautiful new coat and always trots everywhere like he's a little child skipping to the park. We love him so much.
Monthy Treatment: $15.00

 FLASH
This little guy is also a new naked addition. He is not young enough to
have his adrenal tumors removed but he just started his monthly Lupron
shots and we should start seeing some hair growth soon. We can tell from
his hair on his face he will be a beautiful Cinnamon and White ferret.
He came to us with a badly healed break in one of his back legs and
while he is a little slow getting around he has no problem rough housing
with the boys. All you have to do is hold this little guy to know he is
beautiful with or without hair. He is one of the few ferrets we have
know that is not only a big rough houser but loves to cuddle in his
foster moms arms and sleep heavily after an afternoon of play. He has a
fun and happy life ahead with your help.
Monthly Treatment: $15.00

 BOOHOO
(AKA BOO)
This beautiful little darling came to us with his cage mate Max. Max was
very ill and died before we could even get him to the vet the next day.
Boo fell into a terrible depression. His blood sugar dipped critically
low and he had to spend the night at the vet on IV fluids and glucose.
He had to be hand fed for over 6 weeks before he would start eating on
his own. He went from 2.75 pounds to less then one pound. He is finally
back to his own self, gaining weight and his foster Mom says he is very
much a Momma’s Boy and cuddles with her in the bed every night. He has
Insulinoma and requires medication twice a day for the rest of his life.
He such a beautiful inquisitive sweetheart. Please extend his happy life
with your help.
Monthly Medication: $8.00 |
AGNES
This beautiful stocky little girl is a joy in her Foster Mommy’s life.
She has Adrenal disease; but this scrappy little girl, who doesn’t like
other ferrets, has no problem letting them know when they pounce on her.
She is having a blast in her retirement years and she can hop around
entertaining herself for hours. She is one of the few little girls in
her foster home, amongst many boys and she has no problems making her
presence known. Her adrenal disease makes her very itchy and she loves
it when Mommy gives her a good scratch and rubs her Cortisone-10 on her
itchy skin. It’s a wonderful message.
Monthly Treatment: $17.00

 Nikki
(Nicodemus)
Nikki came to the shelter because of a golf ball size tumor that had
been allowed to grow on his back. His previous owner claimed that the
addition of a puppy left her too distracted to notice the gigantic
growth. The shelter took custody of Nikki and after the removal of the
tumor found out that he also had Insulinoma and is Adrenal. Nikki is 6
years old and now enjoys a life where he is loved and noticed all day
everyday. Nikki’s favorite game is running through the tunnels because
he has weak hind legs and can play like an equal with the younger
ferrets this way. He also enjoys eating baby food when he gets his
medication and sleeping in the biggest hammock in the cage.
Monthly Treatment and Meds: $20.00 |
 Gizmo
Look at this adorable “Disco Boy”. He requires a lot of treatment for
Insulinoma and Adrenal disease; but he could not be happier and more
playful then if he had no ailments at all. We would love to be able to
keep him that way but we need your help. Even a partial donation would
help greatly with our costs. Gizmo is on Prednisone and gets Lupron
shots monthly, as well as getting a Melatonin Implant about every 3-4
months.
Monthly Treatments and Meds: $35.00

 SKITZ
His personality is a lot like his name. He was a mess when he came to
us, much like a crack addict who just entered rehab. He is wonderful
playful little man who has a completely new coat of hair. He plays like
a ferret many years younger and is a constant source of entertainment.
And with all this energy and vigor you would never guess Skitz is deaf.
