Noodle before surgery today!

09/25/2024

Little Miss crazy Noodle had her her surgery today! She did very well and is currently napping. She does not like being couped up and does not act like she just had a major surgery.
Thankfully to a few donations and many sales (thank you) the last few weeks we were able to pay most of her surgery bill today. We still owe $95.41.
Next Tuesday Meatball gets his chordoma removed so I have 6 days to raise his surgery funds estimated around $1200. She has a recheck in two weeks and will have to have x-rays in 6 months to make sure there is no comeback of stones. I got her off the food with the peas in it so hopefully no future stones!

I’m not sure what is going on but I am getting MANY texts today regarding adopting ferrets. Unfortunately I am not doing adoptions at this time. Most of our ferrets here at the rescue are over the age 5 and/or have some sort of health issue and they have been here for quite some time. I feel that it is better that they stay here with me due to how long they have already been here or because of health issue. I also have bonded groups of ferrets and I will not separate them as they love each other. Within those groups there are ferrets with adrenal disease. So again I will not separate bonded ferrets. Please contact Ferrets Unlimited Rescue Services or Heart of Ohio Ferret Association to inquire if they have any adoptable ferrets.
Thank you

Last night I got an urgent call for help for June the ferret. His owners noticed he wasnt acting right. They called many veterinary hop and clinics but none could help or didn’t return her call. Around 11pm I got a text message for a plea of help from Junes owner. We met me at midnight. I did my once over exam in the parking lot of Southeast Harley Davidson and instantly suspected a blockage. He was also very dehydrated. June was left in my care and the plan was to get him thru the night as I pushed sub q fluids and p**pin Pumpkin and to get him to my vet Thursday morning. He made it thru the night and his hydration levels improved Morning came and plans had to change as I was not aware that my vet was now closed on Thursdays and we had to wait till Friday morning to see my vet. I kept pushing sub q fluids. The Poopen Pumpkin was trying to do its job as he did p**p and I could feel the blockage lower in his abdomen. He got weaker and I contacted his family. They called Avon Lake Animal Clinic and luckily they were able to see him. I flew on the highway and the 45 minute drive took me 35 minutes. I met Junes family in the parking lot and we went inside. Dr. Krupka confirmed my suspicion of blockage and did emergency surgery and it was a big hairball! No other damage was found inside. June is now in recovery but still critical and in an incubator hooked up to an IV. We pray he makes it thru the night. He is a fighter! Surgery was estimated at almost $3000. If anyone can help with Junes vet bill that will be greatly appreciated by his family.

Thank you

Hey there! I wanted to share that Molly's ferret, June, is in need of urgent vet care, and they’re trying to raise funds to cover the medical expenses. Every little bit helps and can really make a difference in getting June the treatment he needs. If you could take a moment to donate or even just share the link, it would mean a lot!

Meatball and Noodle were recently surrendered due to a domestic violence situation and needing some major healthcare. Meatball has a golf ball sized chordoma on his tail and Noodle has bladder stones. They are both on antibiotics and Noodle also gets pain meds even though she doesn’t act like she is in pain. We all know bladder stones are painful. They both need to gain some weight as well before surgery so they are get soupies a few times a day. We need to raise $2500 for these surgeries. There are many ways to donate. You can hit the link with this post or directly donate to these options.

I couldn’t figure out how to get the giving Tuesday fundraiser up this year and I didn’t put my ferrets on the ferret giving tree either cause honestly all the rescue really needs is food and treats. They have more than enough bedding (cause I make it) they have way more toys than necessary. Right now they have some buy 2 get one free ferret foods and that’s a good deal. So if you wish to donate here is our wish list and yes you will see Guinea pig and cat foods on the list as I have a few of them I also took in because they had nowhere to go. Thank you and HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!

Our organization is committed to keeping pets safe, happy and healthy while they wait to be placed in a forever home.

Courtesy post for Turner Treers and Hobbs the 4.5 year old ferret.
Hobbs is looking for a new home. He is a single ferret and at his age probably won’t except new friends so be advised if you already have ferrets. Please contact Turner directly or in comments as I have no say on who she decides to rehome him too. Located in northeast Ohio.
Adoption fee is $150.00 and includes his cage and a new bag of food.

Update we found one so far.

5 ferrets dumped near a dumpster at Lakewood Club Apartments
11803 north lane drive Lakewood Ohio! If anyone sees them please contact either Healing Hearts Ferret Rescue 330-931-9531 or Ferrets Unlimited rescue Services.
Ferrets are normally very friendly please secure them and one of us will come get them.

At 8:18pm Lakewood police department called me and told me a witness called them to report a man dumping 5 ferrets near a dumpster at Lakewood Club Apartments. An officer went to the scene but only saw empty containers. I called Ferrets Unlimited Rescue Services and we teamed up to go look for these ferrets.

Today we had a phone call from someone interested in adopting.
I got out one sentence before she went off on me.
I said... “I’m sorry but unfortunately due to the covid pandemic we are not doing adoptions at this time.”
She went off on me yelling at me.
I cut her off and told in a very firm voice and said something like this.
Excuse me! I run this shelter out of my PRIVATE home and because of this covid crap I DON’T want a bunch of strangers in MY HOME! I paused and she said nothing so i I said have a good day and hung up.
Had she not interrupted me with rudeness after my first sentence I would have went on to explain that I only have a few days left of my 14 days after receiving the covid vaccination to be in full effect and with the weather getting warmer we are in the works of setting up adoptions outside and will start doing them again soon.
But thank you SO much for showing your ass today cause you will NEVER get the chance to adopt a ferret through this rescue. I have your name and phone number on the do not adopt list so think twice and let people finish speaking before you start berating them for CRAP you clearly have no clue about!
Also I have made a few exceptions during covid and have done a few adoptions to the right people.
Today Toby was adopted to a very nice gentleman who is knowledgeable and friendly!
