Bonita had a visit from Santa today! Santa Glenn Lockett and family spoiled her as ever! Leslie is looking down with the biggest smile on her face watching her earth angel being spoiled and loved to pieces. She recieved 4 ultra soft blankets to cuddle in which is her favorite thing to do. She recieved 4 flat soft beds!!! Helps her old arthritic bones without having to struggle to get out of bed. Tons of movie night snacks for ferret Christmas movies! A fan favorite box of duckies to share with her siblings! And of course, we are ever so grateful for the receiving blankets they sent as well. We call them rainbow bridge blankets they are what our passed babies get wrapped in before taking to the vet. And then the blanket goes back with the ferret that has passed, they wash it and then we donate it to the vet office to comfort anther little fuzzy that may need it one day. We also can't thank you enough for the stella and chewy!

Thank you so much. Bonita has such a special Christmas this year! Sadly may be her last Christmas so this is extra!!!!! Special! We couldn't do the things we do without the support and love from all of you. Thank you Santa!!!

Cheers to you, Rockets Santa extraordinaire! The gifts are mind-blowing and totally appreciated. Though, Rocket might not be thrilled about the pointy presents, aka lancets...🤪 Thank you again. All of this will help our shelter tremendously Cheryl Schneider

⛄️Good evening everyone!☃️
This year given the crazy changes we will not be able to find the time to put our shelter up on the Ferret Christmas Giving Tree.

We always love and appreciate everything we have sent to us for our hospice.

Due to not having the hospice on the tree this year we of course wanted to still share our shelters needs and wish lists.
As of right now we have 26 hospice ferrets. With that comes high costs of food and litter and meds the list goes on and on.

An amazing ferret rescue SilverAngel's Ferret Rescue & Sanctuary had a surrender come in recently with a very large chordoma on his tail. He is getting surgery for it right away (tomorrow) to have the tail amputated.
Many ferret rescues right now have a huge influx of ferrets coming in, so the shelter funds are running low. So any help towards Kempers surgery is greatly appreciated!

Please share 🙂 thank you everyone!

We have a new surrender in with a large chordoma on the tip of his tail. The vet is going to try to squeeze us in THIS WEEK yet!! We are a little low on funds in the rescue account and could use a little help to give this sweet boy the relief from that weight on his tail! Please if you are able to e...

Emergency!
⚡️⚡️DONATIONS HAVE TAX-DEDUCTION⚡️⚡️
Minks are extremely close to my heart as some may know. And this rescue is run by a very good friend of mine who never turns a baby away, and does everything in her power to keep them safe and healthy. Sadly they need help more than ever right now with the hot weather and their food intake. Their whole AC system has failed and they are struggling to keep the adult minks and the babies cool. They are having to put a lot of funds out to get a new AC system which sadly takes funds away from the minks normal care (food, medicine, litter, interactive toys, water supply etc). I am reaching out to the community to try and get assistance for them so they can continue caring for these minks that escaped certain death in the hands of fur farmers.
Thank you everyone for sharing, reading and/or donating!

Hello! I apologize for the lack of posting, the rescue has been in emergency mode.🔥Monday morning some time after our post that day, the AC/Central Air Cooling died and we've been in an emergency state to make sure that all the animals are kept just out of heatstroke risk by constantly checking water levels, offering frozen treats/meat, ice cubes in water dishes, frozen water bottles, blowing loose standing fans over water since regular fans don't help animals that don't perspirate. All of this has been a major and stressful feat so far as we have limited freezer space and ice cube making capabilities while having 3 separate large rooms dedicated to the animals in our care with multiple cages.

We've looked into various temporary and backup options for cooling while waiting on the AC to be replaced (our unit type is not being manufactured anymore), which is going to likely take a couple weeks and about $22,000 later (the furnace will be replaced as well to match with the new AC system, the AC alone is roughly $12-13K). The average temperature inside is running around 83F, which is too high for ferrets or mink, so we are looking to getting a couple portable aircons/swamp coolers to use right now until the AC issue can be fixed. Costco currently has some on sale for $300 that might work.

We have a GoFundMe page running right now for this heat disaster, but direct donations through Venmo, PayPal, Cashapp and Zelle can be put to use right away in getting some emergency measures resolved faster.

Due to the nature of this problem, we won't have as much personal funds to cover the rescue bills like normal, which currently are $5500 outstanding already. All intakes are thus still on hold until further notice.⛔️ Remember, all donations to our rescue are tax-deductible!

‼️Sharing our posts and pages allow rescues to reach more people who may be willing to help without always only getting support from the same individuals. Please consider sharing about us to your friends, family, colleagues and followers. Commenting on posts shows activity and let's Facebook more actively feature them.

Santas slay is already packed full with gifts Brad and I get them. Christmas Eve we will put the rest of the presents from all the Santa’s under the sleigh. Then we will go live on my personal page and Priscilla’s Ferret Hospice page to allow them to open them 🙂 of course it needs done in groups as some ferrets just don’t like others… I mean we literally have a group called “The Hot Flashes” 😝 We can’t thank everyone enough for picking a hospice baby off the tree to spoil but also to make some of our kids last Christmas’s their best! And thank you to many who have sent food, puppy pads,syringes etc for the hospice. It really helps a lot!
Christmas count down has begun!
