Peaches and her sister Maryanne are the last remaining McKids in the place. She's a little bossypants girl who loves to bite hands (HARD!) and kiss faces (sweetly). See, she likes people just fine except for the whole hand thing. Who know what happened once upon a time; now it's just aprt of who she is. So if you hold her near your face it's kiss, chomp, kiss, chomp, kiss. Crazy girl. Her peachy-coloring has faded a bit, but it's still lovely, and her eyes are a nice coordinating shade of red when the light is right. That, together with the biting, does tend to scare folks even though she really is a sweetheart.
Peaches loves ferret-safe rubber and plastic toys, such as kong toys and little plastic bath toys. She sometimes enjoys crinkle sacks or small things that make noise when shaken. She looooves to sleep in a covered, padded box bed that was sent one year. She also sleeps in deep hammies or burrowed in the starch peanuts in the dig box. She says she'd like a bunch of starch peanuts to replenish the box, and maybe a box of ping-pong balls for a new digging experience. Peaches' favorite treats are meaty ones. She's the only one here who will actually chew on bits of (cooked) meat. She also likes babyfood, n bones, and such. I used to give her pet jerky-treats when I thought it was safe, but now I can't always keep track of the recalls. Thanks for reading about Peaches. Happy Holidays to you and yours! The shelter can always use: --Gift cards for Walmart (for soup supplies, prescriptions, water bottles, etc.) --Food! Just about anything healthy goes into the mix. We have an account with the Totally Ferret people (877-545-5462), so if you tell them it's for us, you get our discount or you can put a smaller amount on account. --Gift cards for online ferret stores such as Ferret.com, Ferret Depot, or Fosters and Smith. --Vet donations --Those fancy wooden medical q-tips. Wow what a difference! Oh, and ear cleaner, pet tooth cleaner, super soft toothbrushes, stuff like that. --Unscented or green cleaning supplies(delicate little lungs and organs, you know). --Monetary donations for such things as lupron which have to be ordered from abroad. --Cards for gas or hotels. We live about 7 hours each way from our primary vet. I usually stay in a Motel 6 because of their reliable pet policy. --Gotta get a web site together. Someone volunteered from last years' tree, but things got crazy here and I never followed up. Anyone wanna try again? Not sure whether the address will print from the form, so here goes: Out here on the reservation, we have no home delivery, so there is usually a different address for postal deliveries and delivery services like FedEx or UPS. For Postal: C. Williams PO Box 3066 Tuba City, AZ 86045 For UPS, FedEx, etc.: C. Williams 345 Delgarito Circle Tuba City, AZ 86045-3066 If you're not sure, try: C. Williams PO Box 3066 345 Delgarito Circle Tuba City, AZ 86045-3066 (They may fuss, but it's always worked.) And thanks for coming to the Giving Tree--no matter who you pick or what you send, it means so very much to the ferrets and their caretakers. |
