Adoption Poster

Adoption Poster, originally uploaded by Julianne Gentile.

Ferret shelters around the country are loaded with unwanted ferrets that have been discarded for one reaon or another.

Sometimes a parent will purchase a ferret for their child and when they move on to a new toy, the ferret is abandoned or neglected. Other times a ferret owner is forced to give up a great pet because they move to a location where ferrets are illegal. There are many different reasons why sweet, gentle, and wonderful pets are left behind. All they need is a forever home, the proper love and care, and they will reward you with smiles and happiness for years to come.

You can search for your local ferret shelter at Petfinder.

Please feel free to use this poster, or create one like it to encourage others to adopt before buying.
