The Manitoba Ferret Association & No Kill Shelter

2010 MFA EVENTS CALENDAR

Meetings are held at the shelter location, giving you an opportunity to meet some wonderful furries in need of PERMANENT LOVING HOMES.

Meetings are held the second sunday of the month, from 1:30 - 3:30. You must be a member to attend.

The second half of the meeting is devoted to a "Topic of Discussion". This is a unique opportunityto not only become better informed, but also a chance to share and educate fellow members.

Coffee and snacks provided by members.

Come on out to a meeting and find out more about us and what a fun, sometimes crazy "Business" of ferret owners we are.

For health reasons, we ask that you leave your furries at home.

For more information and directions, please call the shelter operator Deb at 661-1389.

Ferrets are very social animals and prefer the company of people or another ferret rather than being alone. They can share the house with dogs and cats but should be carefully watched when together.

"Animals can communicate quite well. And they do. And generally speaking, they are ignored. " - Alice Walker -

We do not ship ferrets, nor do we breed.

Through the doors of our shelter, and many like ours ferrets have a variety of personalities. Some loved, some abused, some from homes where the former owner had no clue on care but purchased the animal on impulse, just to find they cannot deal with the training. We are dedicated to finding loving, caring homes for every ferret.

Before you browse the rest of our site, ask yourself if you can open your heart to a shelter animal, whether it is ferret, cat, dog, bird or reptile. Can you love a fur angel that has had it's little heart broken ? Can you give the pet a loving home for it's lifetime ?

The rewards that await are countless, their love endless. Can you make the commitment?

Please note, however, that we are a small, non-profit animal welfare organization. We do not have any paid staff, and while we will do our best to help people with ferret related problems, we can not provide a free boarding service nor a free veterinary support service.

The MFA Association can offer members a variety of services as described on this web site.

We turn no ferret away, no matter the health, age, or lack of training.

Medical needs are met, and manners are taught.

We believe that educating the potential pet owner is one of the most crucial things we can do.

An educated pet owner can provide a safer, happier, and healthier environment for their pet, thus making both the pet and themselves a good match.

GIVE HOMELESS FERRETS A SECOND CHANCE AT LIFE AND LOVE... ADOPT!!

The shelter is always full of lots of wonderful older ferrets!

The reason the shelter is so full at times is that people did not research ferret ownership before acquiring a ferret.

A ferret is not a simple pet, nor is a child's responsibility!

A pet is a life long commitment.

We still count on your membership to keep this educational and ferret fun loving site alive with information and most importantly to help support our ferret rescue & shelter missions.
