The Washington
Ferret Rescue & Shelter is a Washington State non-profit group
with Federal 501(c)3 non-profit status.
There are several ways
to help the shelter.
If you have any
questions about donations, contact the shelter staff.
Donating Money Monetary donations
via check or PayPal are always
welcome. Donations are used exclusively for the benefit of our ferrets. Many large corporations will match their employees'
donations to 501(c)3 organizations. If you are interested in a corporate
matching donation, have your employer contact
the shelter so the necessary paperwork can be done. You can also choose to sponsor a ferret or two. Sponsorships go toward
food, utilities, bedding, medication, etc. for both our adoptable and foster animals.
Please send all checks and sponsorship forms to: Donating
Supplies The shelter can
always use donated ferret supplies and equipment. If you
have anything you'd like to donate that's not listed on our wish list, please email
the shelter to see if your items might be useful. Donating
Time We can always use help cleaning
cages, trimming nails and giving the ferrets attention. If you
would like to come by, volunteer hours are from 10am-4pm every Saturday.
Of course, one of
the best ways you can support the shelter is to adopt or foster
one (or two, or three, or ???) ferrets. We'd be happiest if all of our fuzzies found great
new homes! Ferrety Fashions Visit our online store at Cafe Press for fun t-shirts, sweatshirts, mugs, etc. with our logo.
