*** Social ferrets are welcome to play with the gang and enter the contests and games. We'll have the WeezilPen (ferret-proof playpen chock full o' amusements) setup and ready to go for all of the weezil sort who wish to socialize. Please make sure your ferrets enjoy playing with others, are in  good health (playing with so many friends can really stress the aged or infirm), are up to date on their shots for Rabies & Distemper and are "safe" around people - in other words, no chompers as we'll have lots of kids around!  Please also bring a collar or harness for your critter (extras will be available at the Supply Shoppe for $3). If you're not sure what your critter might think of hanging out with so many friends, schedule a play date at the shelter or bring portable housing (fully equipped carrier or travel cage) for your critter(s) to hang out in during the day.
