Additional adoption info

We require an in-person interview. Our application is intended to help guide the interview, so we can help make sure a ferret is the right pet for your family and discuss food and care requirements.
We have a standard adoption contract that states if for any reason the adopted ferret must be given up, it is returned to us.
Our standard adoption fee is $100. Pairs that must stay together are discounted.
Since nearly all ferrets sold locally came from pet stores and are already spayed/neutered, we do not get litters of babies into our shelter.
