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.

Trinity is a very amazing ferret. Trinity had major surgery and was up, alert and busy by the next day. Trinity definitely does not act his age.   Quinn is a very rambunctious ferret. He loves being out. The minute you walk by his cage he is up and ready to play.   Temperance, a gorgeous, older female, who definitely has a mind of her own. She is very playful and a bit feisty. Temperance does not do well with children.   Trinity, Quinn and Temperance arrived at the shelter together. They are here because their owner could not keep up with cleaning them. They have been separate since their arrival due to surgeries.

Falcon was brought into the Den by his owners who were moving across the country. He came in with two others but he does great as a single.

Columbo was found in a young mans yard. He kept him safe overnight and brought him into the shelter the next day. Columbo is very friendly and loves people. He is missing a toe on his front paw. We will never know if he escaped his former residence or if his previous owner left him out.

Sex: Female
Date of Birth: 02/02/05

Salsa at 6 months of age was given to a couple shopping at Animal Crackers. She was turned in to us because she was a bad biter. Salsa can be handled but very carefully. It took four months before she would stop shaking when you would reach in to her cage to take her out. It is doubtful she will ever totally trust people.

Name: Amaretto
Color: Champagne
Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 12/28/04

Amaretto arrived at the shelter on February 25, 2006. He was turned in by the owners grandmother. When her granddaughter moved out she did not come back for her ferret. The reason given was pregnancy. The first several days he was wild and did not want to be handled at all. This was understandable due to the fact the grandmother was not able to properly care for him. Amaretto is still very frisky and has turned into a handsome little guy.

Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 5/2/04

We picked Corky up from Milwaukee Animal Control. He had been brought in as a stray. Corky is a stocky, well-behaved little guy. He loves people and is all over you immediately when he is out. Corky’s hearing is right on. The minute you stand by his cage and call his name he flies out of his sleep cube and is by the door. If someone is looking for a very active single Corky is definitely the guy. At this time he is not happy with other ferrets.

Name: Bacardi

Color: Dark Eyed White

Sex: Male

Date of Birth: 7/13/05

Name: Captain Jack

Color: Chocolate Mutt

Sex: Male

Date of Birth: 7/09/05

These two ferrets are a joy to watch. The first time they were put down on the shelter floor all they did was bottlebrush and run back and forth like they were chasing a mouse. Bacardi and Captain Jack are smaller boys who are sweet and looking for a happy new home.

Name: Mitzi
Sex: Female
Color: Chocolate-Blaze Mutt
Date of Birth: 9/9/04

She is a tiny curious ferret. When Mitzi first arrived she seemed very afraid when you would reach for her, so we opened her cage and let her come to us. When she is out playing she will run over to us. Mitzi is also quite a little chatterbox and on the plus side she is very neat in her cage.

 

Name: Thistle
Color: Silver
Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 2/25/04

Thistle also came to us from Milwaukee Animal Control. He had been found in Lake Park. Thistle gets along with other ferrets if they are not to rough with him. Thistle seems calm and even-tempered and is also a very neat boy in his cage.

Date of Birth: 11/03/04

Name: Cash
Color: Albino
Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 11/07/04

Name: Fidget
Color: Sable
Sex: Female
Date of Birth: 07/22/07

Fidget came to us from Countryside Humane Society. Fidget is sleek, fast and bouncy. She plays out with the wild bunch and can hold her own. You can hold her for a short time but then she is off and running again.

Name: Buster
Color: Champagne
Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 4/5/02

Buster is a stocky, little, old guy. He is sweet and likes to be held. Buster also loves Ferretvite and Ferretone. He came in with a very bad dental problem. Buster is scheduled to a have this taken care of on March 30th. We also suspect he may be adrenal so exploratory surgery will also be done at this time.
  Name: Snicker Doodle
Color: Mutt
Sex: Male
Date of Birth: 06/08/07

He is a stocky little guy, very excitable. Snicker Doodle is fairly new to tell much of anything. He may be deaf or he has very selective hearing.
