Jackie, Blossom & Buttercup

Jackie, Blossom & Buttercup

Jackie and her family have been long time friends and supporters of Ferret Dreams Rescue for many years.  Jackie recently contacted us, with an offer to help foster ferrets as needed.

Last month, it was brought to our attention that someone was giving away a sick ferret for free on Craigslist.  With the help of several people,  we were able to take possession of the ferret named Blossom.  Jackie immediately noticed that she needed hospitalization and took her to our veterinarian.  Blossom was hospitalized for several days with a very bad virus which really took a toll on her.  In addition, she was almost completely bald,  due to her Adrenal Disease.  In the meantime, we found out that Blossom had a ferret friend that she was bonded with and luckily, we were able to reunite Blossom with Buttercup.  Once Blossom was healthy enough, we began treatment for her Adrenal Disease.

After several weeks of recovery, both we ready for their new home.  Not surprisingly, Jackie contacted us about adopting both Blossom & Buttercup.  In just the short time that Jackie fostered Blossom, she knew in her heart that both Blossom & Buttercup were to be with her for the rest of their lives.

Thanks to our Medical Fund, Blossom received the medical attention she deserved and our Medical Fund will now pay for all of Blossom’s treatments for her Adrenal Disease.  It is a very happy ending for Jackie, Blossom and Buttercup.  Thank you Jackie for opening your heart and your home to these two sweet girls!

On May 6th, Brett & Laura adopted their second ferret from Ferret Dreams.  Buck will now be in a home with 3 other ferret friends to play and cuddle with.  We want to thank Brett & Laura for giving Buck such a wonderful home and for their generous donation to our Medical Fund.buckadoption 002

Buck is a 2 yr old sable male who is looking for a home with other ferrets.  Actually, we insist on it.  Buck is very friendly with both people and ferrets and will be a great addition to any business of ferrets.  Buck was found as a stray in Northern Colorado and made his way to Ferret Dreams so that we could find him a loving and permanent home.

If you are interested in Buck, please contact us.  All adoptions are subject to approval.

Maddix and Hailey

On May 11th, Hailey and her family drove up from Pueblo, Colorado to meet Maddix.  After their tour of our rescue, they met and played with Maddix.  Maddix seemed to be a perfect fit and will now get lots of attention and love.  We want to thank them for thinking adoption first and for their generous donation to our Medical Fund.

 

Maddix is a 2 yr old sable male ferret who is full of personality, energy and lots of love.  Maddix prefers the company of humans rather than ferrets so a home without ferrets is recommended.  Maddix, being a lone ferret, really requires a lot of attention and interaction.  He thoroughly enjoys playing catch with stuffed animals and ferret toys. running through tubes and digging in rice boxes.

If you are interested in Maddix, please contact us.  All adoptions are subject to approval.

On May 19th, the Mile High Ferret Club had it’s first Fiesta Party, complete with Mexican music, a playpen filled with Sombreros, Cactus, and a Pool filled with Packing Peanuts for the ferrets to wade through.  We had many guests from Pueblo to Loveland, Boulder to Goodland, Kansas.  We even had a special guest, Robin Jones,  from the Los Angeles area.  Robin is part of the SOS or Support Our Shelters team, who help ferret rescues throughout the country.

Ferret Dreams had another great raffle with over 25 wonderful items for both ferrets and humans.  We gave away bedding sets, cuddle beds, crinkle sacks, jewelry, artwork and even a Canon digital Camera and Travel Playpen for your ferrets.  Ferret Dreams raised $753.00 for our Medical Fund which helps us take care of all the sick ferrets that are here and those yet to come.  We want to thank all our guests for joining us for a fun-filled day.  We look forward to seeing you all next month.  Stay tuned.

Fran and Kitty

Fran contacted us because her ferret Sneeky had just lost her companion and seemed a little depressed.  She felt that a new ferret friend would really cheer her up.  We introduced Sneeky to Kitty and they seemed to get along very well.  We also had another ferret named Charlie who really bonded with Kitty while here at the rescue.  Fran was willing to adopt Charlie also since he really seemed to bond with Kitty.  Charlie was dealing with a mild “bug” and so we kept him here till he was feeling better.  Fran was contacted and informed that Charlie is well and ready to go to his permanent home.

Now all 3 ferrets are loving life with each other and with Fran.  We want to thank Fran for her willingness to take both Kitty and Charlie into her home.

Mile High Ferret Club – Rock-N-Roll Party was a #1 Hit!

On Sunday, April 21st, the Mile High Ferret Club was Rocking and Rolling as we listened to tunes from the 50′s & 60′s and the Ferrets played in the Rock n Roll Playpen complete with Jukebox, Musical Instruments, Tunnels and Tubes.  Over 30 guests and about the same amount of ferrets joined us for a wonderful afternoon.

A “Pin the Tail on the Ferret” game was enjoyed by everyone, young and old.   The game was free and if you correctly pinned the tail on the ferret, you had a choice of selected prizes for you or for your ferret.

Our potluck included sandwiches, bbq meats, chips and dips and more plus a huge Rock n Roll cake that was really sweet!

Ferret Dreams brought Digger, an elderly permanent resident ferret,  and introduced him to everyone.  Ferret Dreams talked about Digger, his illnesses and his needs.   They asked the group if someone whould be willing to be his DreamAngel and help with his care and medications while he lives the rest of his life at the only no-kill shelter in Colorado.   Luckily for Digger, Kathy Patton, a long time friend and supporter presented us with a check and became Digger’s DreamAngel that day.  We want to thank Kathy for her help and for wanting to be a part of Digger’s life.

Below are some of the great pics from our Rock n Roll Party:
