How to Donate to the Pennsylvania Ferret Club & Shelter

Our ferret club exists primarily to support our ferret shelter, to keep its doors open so that we never have to turn a single needy ferret away. To keep our shelter running, and more importantly, to provide the care that the ferrets in the shelter need, we incur great expense. All ferrets in the shelter are provided rabies and distemper vaccines; ADV tested; provided only high-quality ferret diets; given warm, soft bedding to sleep in; secure cages to stay in; and provided any and all medical care that they require. The PFCS is a no-kill shelter, meaning that we do not put any ferret to sleep except for absolute medical necessity. Ferrets who come to us ill, injured, or generally kept poorly, we will rehabilitate and find a new home for. Even ferrets with cancer or other serious illnesses are provided treatment by us. The expense is significant, but we are doing for these innocent pets what a previous owner was unwilling to do.

We are funded entirely by donations and the fundraising efforts of our club members. Adoption fees do not even begin to cover the great expense we incur for even our healthiest residents; let alone the ill ferrets we care for. In short; donations are gratefully accepted and desperately needed.

You can donate to our organization in a number of ways. We accept donations of supplies or money, whichever you are more comfortable with. You can even make a monetary donation directly to our veterinarians so that you can be sure that your donation is going towards the medical care of needy ferrets.

Monetary Donations:

You may make monetary donations in three ways: a check sent to one of our official shelter veterinarians; a check sent directly to us which we will use strictly for supplies and medical care for the shelter ferrets only; or you may make a donation to us through PayPal. Again, all monetary donations are used strictly for supplies and medical care of our shelter ferrets. Donations are not used for any other personal or club purpose ever.

Donations of Supplies:

Supplies are always needed at our shelter branch locations and foster homes! We go through a great deal of food, treats, toys and bedding every year. We gratefully accept any and all ferret supplies! Some of the items currently on our shelter branches' Wish List include:

The Shelter Directors and all of the ferrets in residence at the Pennsylvania Ferret Club & Shelter wish to send their most heartfelt thanks to all who have made donations to us in the past!
