Swiper, Felix, BearBear, Abby, & Maggie
Swiper and Felix joined us in early 2005. We got a call from a woman whose family had three ferrets but couldn`t take these two on. Apparently, her boyfriend`s brother was abusing the boys and she wanted to remove them and get them into a safe, loving home. The vet suggested us.
Several months later we got a call from the same woman. Her grandmother in California had died and left her a house and some money. They were moving. Could we take Abby, Maggie, and BearBear??????
Abby, Maggie, and BearBear joined the family here at Zoo`s on October 29th, 2005.
BearBear is the largest ferret at Zoo`s. He weighs over three pounds. He was said to be a bad biter but has only bitten once since he came. He is blonde and between three and four years old.
Abby is in good general health--about four years old. A sweet little chocolate girl.
Maggie is a chocolate girl, very fragile and adrenal. She got a lupron shot last month (Thank you, SOS!!!) and has begun to re-grow her fur!!! It is hard to guess her age but we feel she is at least four too.
More later!
Love, Zoo

This is the picture that
was on the front page of our local paper in November of 2006. It is of
me holding Bear Bear.
