Adoptable Ferrets

Ferret Den Ferrets Looking for a Permanent Home

The foremost thought in your mind when thinking of adopting from a shelter should be giving a needy animal a home, not how young or cheap you can acquire a ferret.

Name: Sherlock
Color: Sable
Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 08/03/07

Sherlock is a very hyper ferret. He loves to be out and chase. Sherlock also has a bad habit of digging his food out all over. He is people friendly and not nippy at all. Sherlock will come over and sit up to beg for a treat. Sherlock at this time is sharing a cage with Ringo but could be adopted out as a single if he gets enough attention.

Name: Diesel
Color: Chocolate Roan
Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 03/16/07

Diesel came to The Den with a partner but was soon put as a single. All he did was pick on his friend and a lot of screaming ensued. Diesel is hard to figure out. He does not like to be held and when he roughhouses out Diesel becomes very nippy.

Name: Ringo
Color: Dark-Eyed-White
Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 03/18/07

Ringo came in with another ferret. They did not fit well at all . Ringo is quite skittish and is not thrilled at all about being held. We think his previous owner just let him out to play and never really interacted with him. At this time he is sharing a cage with Sherlock but he could be placed as a single or friend for another ferret.

Name: Sergio
Color: Dark-Eyed -White
Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 05/10/07

Name: Dundee
Color: Dark-Eyed -White
Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 05/06/07

They are both dark-eyed-whites. They are fluffy, beautiful and friendly. Sergio and Dundee are neat in their cage and very busy when out to play. They boys were placed in the shelter due to a divorce and move.

sterling

Name: Sterling
Color: Silver
Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 04/13/07

Name: Kenji
Color: Champagne
Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 04/23/07

Sterling and Kenji arrived at the shelter with two other ferrets and the four were split. These big boys are well behaved playful and people friendly. They seem to play well with other ferrets and do good in the play area litter boxes when you put them in as they first come out.

kenji

Name: Faith
Color: Sable, pink nose
Sex: Female
Date of Birth: 04/15/09

Name: Hope
Color: Sable, black nose
Sex: Female
Date of Birth: 04/15/09

The girls, who are litter mates, were given to The Ferret Den because they were unaltered. Faith and Hope are sweet, friendly and very playful. Soon they will be making a trip to the vet to be fixed.

Name: Marty
Color: Dark-Eyed-White
Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 01/05/07

Name: Ditto
Color: Chocolate
Sex: Female
Date of Birth: 03/11/07

Name: Elf
Color: Champagne
Sex: Female
Date of Birth: 01/27/07

Their owner turned in these three to Countryside Humane Society. The owner gave their ages as around a year but after checking the ferrets over, all are around three years of age. The ferrets seem happy and healthy and sometimes play out with other groups. Elf is the quietist. She loves attention and is even cuddly at times. Ditto, a little toy collector, is always busy hiding them away and Marty loves to dook and hop especially when you tickle him and then let him jump away.

Name: Cinder
Color: Sable
Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 11/02/05

Name: Patti
Color: Mutt
Sex: Female
Date of Birth: 08/11/06

They arrived in poor shape and very hungry. Their nails were extremely long, they both need dentals and have broken teeth and Cinder is adrenal and going in for surgery the end of November. Cinder and Patti are a sweet pair and deserve much better than what they must have had.

Name: Taser
Color: Albino
Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 10/28/07

Name: Expresso
Color: Marked White
Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 05/17/09

We were told these two boys were found as strays. Funny how they both stayed together and managed to bring their cage with them. Taser and Expresso are friendly and very playful. They are not nippy at all. They are also pretty good jumpers, watching them it looks like they are on pogo sticks. They play out in a group but Taser has to be monitored. He gets to wild and then becomes aggressive.

Name: Toni
Color: Chocolate
Sex: Female
Date of Birth: 09/21/07

Name: Thomas
Color: Silver
Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 07/20/06

Toni and Thomas were turned in by someone who just didn’t have the time to care for them any longer. The sad part is she took them from someone else who was not taking care of them. She didn’t do much better. We don’t know how they were fed but for the first 3 days they would completely empty their food dish.

Name: Molly
Color: Dark-Eyed White
Sex: Female
Date of Birth: 02/05/05

Molly is a very solid girl with a tail that is maybe 2 inches long. She came to us from a girl who got her off of Craig’s list. She was told Molly was one and a half and got along with other ferrets. Both statements were false. Molly is definitely a single. She plays well by herself and has a great time.

Name: Drifter
Color: Chocolate
Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 12/22/04

Drifter came to us from Countryside Humane Society as a stray. At this time he is very bald and has urine scars on his groin area. He will be going in soon for adrenal surgery. Drifter has good body weight and seems active. We hope things go well for him. Drifter is a sweetheart and deserves to find a loving home.

Name:Sassy
Color: Mutt
Sex: Female
Date of Birth: 06/13/08

Name: Stitch
Color: Chocolate
Sex: Female
Date of Birth: 06/05/08

These two are wild and crazy. They were not handled very much and both are naughty little biters. The girls play well together and love to chase but at this time they would definitely need an experienced owner.
