Welcome
Welcome to the Washington Ferret Rescue & Shelter, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. We are a no-kill shelter based near Seattle, Washington. We provide rescue, rehabilitation, rehoming, outreach and education services for ferrets and their caregivers in the Puget Sound region.
We rely on donations from the public! All of our staff and board members are unpaid volunteers who donate their time, expertise, and labor to the shelter. Still, it costs a lot to maintain a shelter full of ferrets and provide them with proper care! Please consider donating today.
If you need to surrender a ferret for any reason, please visit our Surrender page for information, or fill out a Surrender Request form.
Think you've found a stray ferret? Check out our Found a Ferret page to be sure.
We can help you! Learn about ferrets and whether they're right for you; read some Frequently Asked Questions; or see our list of external resources. And when you're ready, see how easy it is to adopt a ferret or three from us!
You can help us! Learn how to help, whether it's through donating money or items, fostering ferrets, or simply spreading the word to your friends. There are even options to help us while you shop, or with a simple daily click!
