How amazing it has been 5 years now that I live at the Clubhouse. For those who do not know my story, I came here when my owner would not take me to the vet after I had been injured. They put collars on us and we fell in the cage. I hung caught in the bars for hours. Hours. Collars are horrible. We struggled but not until someone came home did we get picked up. It made me blind in one eye and ruined my balance. I cannot climb most stairs so cannot be caged. So being here is perfect. The Clubhouse did take me to the vet within days of getting here. I had oxygen deprivation and slight break in my neck - but it is healed. I do okay now.
Every year there are amazing Santas and I am so happy to hear from you every time. What great people who help us help the many ferrets who I meet every year. I try not to think of where they would be if not here. Sorry to sound sad. I am not. Happy days with tons of food and soft blankets to hide in. Thank you so much "Sammy’s Clubhouse is the only ferret rescue that serves Eastern Washington and Northern Idaho (sometimes Montana). We do our best but we need support from the community to keep going. We are fortunate that the online community has stepped forward when the local community has not been able to. This leaves us in need of medical funds and food for the ever increasing ferrets here. Less than a third of our population are healthy enough to rehome. Most have various issues such as Adrenal Disease, permanently damaged by previous owners, biters and the others with insulinoma or simply old (7 years or older). We really need melatonin implants - which can be purchased from Support Our Shelters at a drastically reduced price (http://supportourshelters.org/ or email sharon@supportourshelters.org). Because of the age of most of our ferrets, they really could use a good dental cleaning which is averaging $175-250 per ferret. Donations can be sent directly to our vet also. Shelter needs: We really need melatonin implants - which can be purchased from Support Our Shelters at a drastically reduced price (http://supportourshelters.org/ or email sharon@supportourshelters.org). For treats the ferrets use 2 large bags of Stella & Chewy duck duck goose freeze dried raw each week. We add Nature’s Variety raw booster – rabbit or chicken in our mix. Or other cat freeze dried raw treats are also good. Please no ferretvite/furovite. We feed: Totally Ferret Turkey Venison and Lamb (if they are out, we also feed Complete), Dr Tim’s Chase Cat Food, Mazuri Ferret Diet, Nature's Variety Instinct Raw Boost Rabbit or Duck, Zupreem, Marshall Select, Oxbow Feret Diet. Not only do we made soup out of our regular food mix, we use Marshall's Uncle Jim's Duk Soup. We mix Salmon Oil with Furotone for nail trimmings and treats. If you wish to purchase Totally Ferret Turkey Venison and Lamb, go to http://performancefoodsinc.net/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=3 and place the order with notes that it is for shelter 50-WA-0423 and the shipping directly to our rescue will be free.
