Subject: My very sick ferret
             Hi ferret lovers,
I wrote a few days ago about my very sick ferret that I had adopted.  I
wish that I had written sooner.  Last night she was suffering so much and
I didn't know what to do.  If I had known, I would have put honey-syrup
on her lips and given her baby food chicken to help her stop convulsing
and to feel a little bit better.  Then I would have brought her to a
shelter so she could have received treatment, and lived.
The man who I got her from hadn't taken very good care of her.  He
probably knew she was sick but didn't take her a vet to be taken care of
and, believe it or not, he had adopted her from a shelter who takes care
of abused animals.  That's outrageous!
Thank you for all the help, encouragement, and guidance that many of you
gave to me.  I learned a lot.  This information will be useful if I get
another ferret.  I might want to be a foster mother to many girl and boy
ferrets.  I'd like to have one hundred ferrets at one time, but, that
would be a lot of work!
A ferret friend,
Marlena (age 9-1/2)
