Need to Find Homes for 2 Ferrets in Ohio

[idescend]

Hello, I have two ferrets, a brother and sister, whom I love dearly, but I need to find a new home for them. I am disabled with health problems and a few months ago, my husband left me. I am completely overwhelmed with everything that I have to do on my own now and know that it will be best for all of us if they found a new forever home. I emailed Hofa (Heart of Ohio Ferret Association) several months ago, but never heard anything back. I e-mailed them again a couple of days ago, but get the sense that they are very overwhelmed. My ferrets, Jack-Jack and Winnie, must stay together, as they are extremely bonded. Sadly, Winnie was just diagnosed with insulinoma last month after exhibiting symptoms for the very first time. She started her Prednisone today. I ordered a ferret food that especially formulated to help regulate blood glucose level and have been crushing it up in chicken baby food. This is the only way she will eat it. They both enjoy their ferretvite and she will eat her Prednisone when it is mixed in the treat. Winnie is a bit of a diva and will not tolerate other ferrets besides her brother. Jack-Jack is a laid back, roly-poly guy. They must go to a very ferret knowledgeable home, of course. Any help would be greatly appreciated. It breaks my heart to have to give them up, as I gave my other three to a new ferret home last year. Thanks.

I am so sorry to hear about your situation. I hope you can find them great homes.

Would it be okay if we cross posted this over to Ferret Owners on Facebook? They reach a wider audience than we do here, and have managed to help rehome a number of ferrets.

Absolutely! Thank you so much.

We've got an offer to take them already. It's by a shelter, but she's fantastic from what I understand. Will send you a message with the details.
