We started "rescuing" ferrets who needed a home in the St. Croix Valley in 1995. By March 1996, our intake had reached a volume making it necessary to go beyond being a rescue and becoming an actual shelter. When a national pet store chain moved into the metro area in 1997 and flooded the area with little fur angels, our intake increased over 400%, as did the phone calls from newbie "furkid" owners looking for help because their furkids weren't quite the "just like a kitten or a puppy" the pet store people had said they would be. In 2002 we got a 501(c)(3) and became an officially recognized non-profit organization. Several educational programs were instituted under our "Ferret Support Network" in an effort to meet the needs of an increasing population of ferret owners with little or no knowledge of how to properly care for these unique critters. Ferrets are wonderful pets and those of us who live "in the Company of Ferrets" can't imagine life without them. They aren't, however, the right pet for everyone, as is obvious by the numbers that find their way to our doors. |
