Unusual Request


*This is a crosspost from the FML*


"I have an unusual request. My brother, who lives in Sacramento has
asked me to put in an unusual request. You see, I am the primary contact for New Mexico Ferret Rescue here in Albuquerque, and he knows that I have the ability to "ferret out" information.

Here is my request. My nephew is terminally ill, 6 years old, he has a brain tumor. What I would like to know is if there is an underground ferret person in the Sacramento area who could introduce ferrets to this child. It seems that the animals that have come into the home for brief visits have distracted my nephew and allows him to touch and enjoy animals. He is pretty much bedridden at the moment, and requires constant care. Is there a laid back ferret in the area? I have three myself, but obviously I can't go there and show them to him.

Considering the legailities of Ferrets in California, any information you would be providing me would be held in strict confidence. I know I may need to give whomever the phone number of my brother's home because of the legality issue.

Thank you.

Check out the website for the American Ferret Association. They might be able to put you in contact with someone in California who has ferrets. If I am not mistaken I think there is a California ferret association. I run a ferret shelter in the state of Florida, I wish I could help you out, but maybe this might be a start for you. Let me know how it works out.

Hi Nancy. I just went to the American Ferret Association website and yes they have four shelters listed in California with e-mail address and some even have websites. I know these people would be more then happy to help you with your nephew. I have found that ferret people have good hearts. Again let me know how it goes. And our prayers go out to you and your family.

This was just a crosspost--the info isn't in reference to me--sorry for the confusion. I e-mailed Hildy Langewis with FURR(Ferret Underground Railroad) and FerretWare last night. She's forwarding it onto some CA ferret groups and they'll be checking into it
