My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Peanut and Pumpkin are a bonded pair that must be adopted together.

Peanut (5Y) and Pumpkin (4Y) have been wonderful members of the Ferret Dreams family since early 2023. Unfortunately, they were surrendered because their previous family could no longer provide the care they deserve. Given their age, we're looking for compassionate and experienced ferret owners who can give these delightful girls the loving home they need.

While we can't say for certain how they interact with cats, dogs, or children, we do know that they can be selective with other ferrets. Currently, they are happily housed with several other female ferrets, making potential female companions a promising option for them.

Both Peanut and Pumpkin have had thorough vet exams within the last year. Pumpkin is in great health, but Peanut has been diagnosed with adrenal disease. The good news is that she has shown excellent improvement with her hormonal implant. You'll just need to repeat this treatment annually, which is fully covered under our Medical Addendum. In fact, Ferret Dreams will take care of all expenses related to Peanut’s adrenal condition for the rest of her life.

Our commitment to our ferrets ensures that all of them have been spayed or neutered and descented. They received their initial vaccinations for rabies and distemper as babies; however, we can’t guarantee that additional vaccines have been maintained.

If you're ready to welcome Peanut and Pumpkin into your heart and home, their total adoption fee is $400. Take this chance to make a difference in their lives and experience the joy they bring!

Our Mile High Ferret Club is an excellent opportunity to interact with the local ferret community. The monthly gatherings encourage ferret owners to bring their healthy and non-aggressive ferrets to play and socialize with others. These events also act as fundraisers to benefit the rescue. More details can be found on our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/milehighferretclub.
