Oh MY.....

So, as I've mentioned to some of you--I will be taking in (for 3 weeks) a small group of unsocialized, unaltered, unvaccinated ferrets from a rescue that took place from a "breeder" in OH. Looking at the pics of these guys, breaks my heart. They are being taken in by the shelter, but are being quarentined at my house.



I am in the process of setting up an appropriate space for them--which will keep everyone in my house as safe as possible--they will be upstairs in a room that is currently my "storage room" (which just means that it's full of shit that I have to clean out). There will be no interaction between them and any of my other critters--Sandy will be blocked from going upstairs at all until quarentine is complete. I will have separate clothes and shoes from when I am upstairs and then need to change and sanitize before I interact with anyone else in the house.



I have no idea what to expect from these guys--from what I understand, they've not been socialized--which means that they could be grateful to interact with others--or they could want nothing to do with it. I will post back once they've arrived on Monday--with my general impressions.... Please, WISH ME LUCK!!!!!!

That is just so cool that he "gets it"!!!!!!! Thanks for the offer--I might take you up on it when they get more settled (and are out of quarentine) to help let them know that new people are nice.
