![]() Welcome to the Ferret Aid Society Thread.
We are a Toronto (Etobicoko area) based ferret shelter, in operation since 1996. We are a completely volunteer run shelter with no permanent employees, and no government funding.
As a “no kill” shelter we never allow our ferrets to be put to sleep because they’re old, we’re overcrowded, or they can be medically treated.
We rely on the donations of animal lovers to keep us running, new volunteers to help us, and you’re always welcome to adopt one of our babies.
We love and treat all the ferrets who come into our doors as if they were our own. It’s hard sometimes to see them go, but the good part of it is that we always know that they are going into a loving home with people who will love them as much as we did. |

Adoptable Ferrets - Bonded Pairs
*All ages are approximate estimates Zoe and Kaylee A bonded pair, ~3 y.o Zoe is silver mitt, Kaylee is sable Sweet girls. Playful yet cuddly, they love some attention. Not very good with other ferrets though. Issues: Zoe is adrenal.  Adoptable Ferrets - Gentlemen*All ages are approximate estimates Linus Single ferret. ~5-6 years old Sable (cinnamon sable?) Linus is a gentle big boy. He came to the shelter with a golf sized tumor on his tail. It has since been removed, and thankfully has not spread to his spine. He does not have a tail, but his friendly personality has not been affected.   Brody Single ferret, ~1 year old. Silver mitt. Brody is our giant baby. He's a ball of energy, and does not have a mean bone in his body.

Adoptable Ferrets - Ladies*all ages are approximate Trinity Single ferret, ~4 years old. Sable Trinity is a lovely sweet girl. Loves to chase toys on a string, and some hand wrestling. Trinity is accustomed to the raw diet, and to eating whole prey.  Leah Single ferret, ~2 years old. Albino Leah was found as a stray last summer. Leah was anemic due to being kept in heat, dehydrated, and suffering from a uterine infection. We have spayed and treated Leah for her infection. Fun and energetic, her nipping has improved greatly. Leah has her anal glands intact.  Kora Gets along with Ona but isn't bonded. ~1-2 years old. Albino Found as a stray this summer. Kora was not spayed, and in heat. Kora has since been spayed and has continued to charm everyone with her gentle personality. Anal glands intact.  Ona Gets along with Kora, but isn't bonded. ~1-2 years old Sable (chocolate sable?) Ona was another stray found this summer. Ona was also intact, and in heat. She has since been spayed. Ona loves to play and run around, very energetic girl. She also loves to cuddle in your arms as well. Hands and sudden movements alarm her, and she can nip pretty hard. Ona needs a home where she can learn to trust and love. Anal glands intact.

This past week has been a sad one for the Toronto shelter. We have lost the bonded pair of boys, Nemo and Ninja.  Nemo left us Friday morning and Ninja followed him last night. Now they are together again, without pain.   |

We are proud to say that Rapscallion and Parker have found permanent homes (dance) Both are going to continue on as single ferrets due to their adrenal issues. Rapscallion will be staying on a frankenprey diet. Parker will be continuing to receive care for his infection. This is Rapscallion  and I don't have a new one of Parker so this one is just the same  |
