My ferret shelter needs your help!
The shelter I work with, Washington Ferret Rescue & Shelter (WFRS), has a fantastic opportunity right now: a portable x-ray machine. We help a lot of sick ferrets, and often time is of the essence when we need to find out what's wrong. And with the price we pay for rads at a vet clinic, it would pay for itself in under 100 ferrets, reducing future med costs!
The machine is a nine-hour round trip away, but my wife and I are ready to go get it if we can wrangle the funds.
It's $3,000 for the machine, $550 for the U-Haul and gas, and $200 to register it with the state. That's a lot for one person, and not in the shelter's budget... but doable by a hundred through the magic of crowdsourcing!
The post about it is here: https://www.washingtonferret.org/newsletters.php?id=9
The shelter's PayPal is https://paypal.me/washingtonferret
Or their Zelle account is [email protected]
Here are some cute photos as a tax on my begging!

SQUEAK SPEAK
Monthly newsletter for Dooks of Earl Ferret Sanctuary Inc
Happy April and Greetings to Everyone!
Much excitement at our little rescue this month and I can't wait to tell you.
Thanks to my income tax check coming in our fundraising goal for between now and May 1st is only $768.00
That will cover
The rescues regular bills like; utilities ($280 on average since our HVAC is still out, but we are hoping someone is coming to fix it soon), and pet foods ($488). I have managed to raise enough to cover the other bills and supplies from my income tax check. And of course, none of this is for me personally nor do I get paid for the work I do. It's not about me, it's about these animals and making their lives amazing for however long they have left.
Other needs that the rescue has not included in this list are:
As always, Pine pellets from Tractor Supply Company, we go through about 30 bags a month.
The blue dishes we got last time will be added back to our list because they are working so well for our sweet seniors and tiny ferrets in helping them eat in a more natural position.
We still have a short wishlist with links to these items on Amazon. The pine pellets I just listed tractor supply gift cards because they don't sell the pellets through Amazon for delivery.
https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/dl/invite/63ZMinE?ref_=wl_share
I also want to remind everyone that you can pick us as your Walmart.com round up charity and that you can send gifts from our Walmart registry and Chewy Registry if you'd like.

We still need fence panels for an outdoor dog kennel yard if anyone has any locally they'd like to drop off. And if you are throwing out any 13 gallon kitchen trash cans or plastic bins of any size we would be thrilled to have them.
We currently have 11 ferrets in amazing foster homes so our population here is becoming very manageable for me AND we have 4 new volunteers!!!!! We are so happy to welcome Michael, his wife, and his mom to our team. They will be coming soon to help me get things back to tip top shape and I greatly appreciate it.
And an amazing girl named Michal who came yesterday and spent the day helping me. The ferrets were crazy about her and you know Keiko was too. The bunnies warmed right up to her but they are very friendly girls. Mr Maru gave her the tour till his house was finished then he had to go see what I had done and grab snacks. Cal the sugar glider, slept through it all. But what delighted me most was Mr. Spooky. Our shy, bite first ask questions later guy, went right to her and cuddled her. WOW He is still having a hard time with Justin not being here. Ferrets grieve just like us and he was really close to his dad the Ferret King. He gave me kisses and now this. It makes me so excited and emotional for him.
There was a minor set back for me medically as I have a new allergy, possibly to Stevia. Of course I try to do something good for my health and now I look like I have rolled in bees. If you don't know, this is not a surprise. Lol But I got some medicine for the hives and hopefully will be feeling much better very soon. Until then if you see me dancing against the doorway like a bear, just walk away. 😂
I'm through infusion 3 of 8. YAY! And I have a surgery consultation coming up finally so I am hopeful that it goes well and we can get a date for surgery. 🤞
I have a potential part time job as a virtual assistant and I am truly excited about that. And we are looking at setting up the trailer for a rental so that I can generate a little income and start paying off old debt and getting back on my feet again.
The three month anniversary of losing Justin was really hard on me but I want to thank everyone for their abounding kindness and support. Some days you and these rescue babies are all that gets me through to the next day. I am so grateful to have you in my life.
I also want to mention if you don't get a thank you note and receipt for your donation or some sort of confirmation, please check with me to make sure we received it. I always send a thank you note if it lets me and if you use cashapp I send a heart.
You are awesome and amazing and greatly appreciated. I could not do what I do if you weren't here supporting us and cheering me on. I hope the blessing that you are comes back to you ten fold. Have an amazing month!

Jupiter ☮️
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Character Desciption
“If you were to seek out Jupiter through a telescope, you would find dozens of tiny objects in her orbit. These are Jupiter’s pets!! Each and every one rescued by our peace loving, big hearted, hippie-girl, Jupiter! The most visible (and her favorites) would be Io the Pup, Callisto the Cat, Europa the Bunny, and Ganymede the Ferret, who jet back behind her where ever she goes. Besides rescuing animals, Jupiter is very concerned about the environment, often organizing events to help get rid of junk left behind by astronauts. She is also very spiritual, always striving to become one with the universe.”

I hate swimming!!
(Bandit has advanced adrenal disease which has led to his balding, he was surrendered along with his sister recently and is recieving treatment in the form of lupron shots and an deslorelin implant on tuesday. His fur may grow back but it also might not! Bandit gets oatmeal and epsom salt soaks to soothe his skin, he also suffers from sores on his tail due to long term exposure to urine and feces, he was brought in for euthanasia for diarrhea and a rectal prolapse and then surrendered to me instead, these issues have since improved greatly)

We are rescusing and fostering ferrets who are found starving, scared and injured. This little lucky guy is just one success story when he was found in time, and was given a loving home. His name is Tuko, and he is just one of thousands who need your help. Please. Any money helps, even if its just a little. Thank you.
P.S I live in the Luton/LU3 area of the UK. If there are any stray ferrets found or seen, please do not hesitate to contact me via tumblr, thanks again!

my brother had a brilliant idea that i wanted to share with other people who have four-legged family members: he trained our two cats to go directly to the door when they hear the fire alarm.
obviously at first the fire alarm sent them scrambling for cover, but he started slowly by giving them treats whenever it went off, when someone burned food or forgot to open the fireplace flu. he then progressed to calling them to the door to offer treats immediately after the alarm went off. and it actually wasn't too long before the cats voluntarily started going to the door upon hearing the alarm.
i think this was genius because in the event of a real emergency we know exactly where the cats will be and we will not have to waste precious time trying to find them to rescue them. i think this method would work equally well with dogs and probably other free-roaming pets such as rabbits, ferrets, etc. and i certainly encourage others to give it a shot!
