Ferret Giving Tree 2009

Tink · 22-10-2009, 06:10 AM

I don't know if this is okay to post. If not, mods please remove and accept my apologies.
In spirit of the holiday season, every year there is a Ferret Giving Tree. This is a chance to be "Santa" for ferrets in need all over the country and only shelter operators are allowed to post their ferrets that need help in order to have a happy holiday.
Here is the link, click on each tree and each picture to read their stories. I will warn you some of them are very sad.
No pressure, this is just in case anyone is interested. I am not part of this site, just spreading the word for a good cause and you can do with it what you will.

I've talked to some other people who did this last year. They said they had a great experience and some even got to see pictures of their recipients with their gifts. I think I will try to budget in a ferret for myself this year. Some of them want such simple things and my heart goes out to these furkids in unfortunate circumstances.
Sign ups for Santa start this Friday

Sincerely,
Tink <3

I am impressed at this wonderful idea Tink. Don't know if there is anything equivalent here in UK.

Thanks for posting.

That is a great idea, Tink, will give it a look.

What a lovely idea. Some very sad stories, some people should be banned from even looking at animals for life!

Thanks for helping to raise the awareness.

Thanks guys. I was worried I'd sound like an advertisement or something but I just wanted to let people know.
On Tree 1 if you read the story of "Toast"..OMG, I started crying.

I chose to be Santa for Rip on Tree 16
