Hey Everyone, Sorry it has been a long time since i have really posted much on here. As we all know our ecomony really sucks right now. Due to this I have had to pick up a second job. I work my normal 40 hours at my main job which may i add is already an hour away. My second job i work 20-30 hours a week at. With this money we are still struggling and i am doing something that i do not want to but have no choice. I need to re-home my babies. I am so worried that if something was to happen to them i do not have the money (or money to borrow) to help them. Our dog layla has needed a yearly checked up at the vet since december and we cant even afford that, already looked into the pet insurance and even 30 dollars a month is a stretch for us.
Now i am not looking for money at all. I trust everyone on here would be good to my babies. I will give everything i have for them. However their ferret nation cage does need a new floor pan and it does not have a shelf.
Please do not judge me i hate to do this trust me i really do. I just dont want it to come down to where they need something medical and i can not even afford it. I have looked into the pet care thing but if it came down to me getting that i could not afford another monthly bill. So please can someone help me. I refuse to put them on craigslist.
Thank you for reading this.

I'm so sorry to hear about this, things will get better, don't worry. Might I ask where you live? I have several friends throughout the US looking for ferrets.

I wish I could help. I now what it feels like to be where you are. Don't feel too bad about having to give them up You have to do what you need to to keep you healthy and all first( that include mental health because if all you are doing is worrying about one of them getting sick you are just going to stress yourself out) . I think this happens to many people and you are not giving them up just because you are tired of them.

I have to attest to how awesome Tiffany's ferret are, too. hehe I love them, and if it weren't for the economy, I'd take them in a heart beat. I def know the feeling, as I am struggling with vet bills with Spunky right now. I don't think any of us will judge you, if they have half a brain and half a heart... You are most def looking out for the welfare of your girls. I'll keep my eyes and ears open for friends that are capable of taking care of them and interested, too... So sorry to hear, though. Keegan will miss her playmates, for sure.

I just wanted to say I know what you're doing is the hardest thing in the world and I send you hugs. Maybe you could arrange a temporary foster home for them and get them back soon?

I didn't think of that. There might be a ferret shelter that can help with donations to keep up with the ferrets' care.
