Since COVID hit in the spring of 2020, to protect the ferrets which are highly susceptible to the SARS-COV-19 virus, we had to seriously cut back on outreaches, events, fundraisers, social gatherings, and shelter hours where we were open to the public.

In addition, we've had to move and are faced with markedly increased rent, utilities, and expenses including food, bedding, and medical care for the ferrets.

While gradually we are restoring all activities, the reality of the pandemic on WFRS is this:

Increased number of ferrets surrendered to us
Decreased numbers of ferrets we have been able to adopt out
Increased expenses to care for the ferrets and operate the shelter (we are still all volunteers, 501(c)3 non-profit)
Drastically decreased funding on all levels

We are appealing to you as a ferret parent, lover, and supporter--Please help us now!
