ADOPT A FERRET
Thank you for your interest to adopt, and not to shop!
By adopting a ferret, whether from the Nirvana Ridge Ferret Rescue (NRFR) or any other ferret rescue, you are saving a life. When an animal is purchased from a pet store, it signifies a consumer demand which keeps the mass ferret production farms breeding and producing more animals. There are many animals that are destroyed needlessly, each and every day, due to the lack of available, loving homes.
Ferret adoption is a five-step process
1. Complete the attached adoption application
An application is required to assist in placing the ferret(s) in an ideal home. Rescued ferrets have already been homeless once, and we want to ensure that their next home is forever. All information will be used solely for the purpose of adoption and not shared with anyone outside the NRFR organization. By completing this form, you grant permission for our staff to contact your landlord and veterinarian, and to conduct an in-home visit.
2. Telephone discussion
3. Shelter visit
4. Home-visit
5. Adoption contract
Adoption Application
Thank you for your interest in adopting a ferret from the Nirvana Ridge Ferret Rescue! This application is not a guarantee that a ferret will be placed with you. All information will be used solely for the purpose of adoption and not shared with anyone outside the NRFR organization. By completing this form, you grant permission for our staff to contact your landlord and veterinarian, and to conduct an in-home visit, as necessary.
In order for your application to be considered, please complete ALL parts of the application. We ask questions to ensure that we find the perfect home for our ferrets. They’ve already become homeless once, and we want to make sure their next home is forever.
There is an adoption fee. Our adoption fees are based on the age of the ferret, ranging $200 for babies to $0 for seniors. There are significant discounts for pairs/groups. We also offer new/used cages and supplies, at reduced costs. All proceeds are utilized for the continued care for our shelter animals.
