Possum the Sable female
Approx. DOB October 20, 2004
I came to this shelter to live with my shelter mum on October 20, 2005, so my shelter mum could
take care of me better than my other human did. My other human put me in a cage with cedar
shaving and she did not clean out my poop. I had to live in the stinky cage with dirty laundry
and dishes. Shelter mum says it is no wonder I did not want to go back in my cage it was dirty
and stinky. Mum would not even let the cage come into the house when I got here. She set up the
sick pen you see me in on my picture, it was clean, fresh and had lots of clean food, water and
bedding.
I was born in 2004. I am happy and I love my shelter mum. I like it here because I get out of my
house (cage) a lot, my shelter mum lets me come up to her partment to sleep with her sometimes,
sometimes she lets me hang out with her in the cubby when she works on the puter’ too. The best
part is I get an all cleaned cage every single day of my life. Mum takes me out every morning at
4:30 to let me play with her when she is getting ready for work. When mum comes home from work
she takes my cage apart puts fresh papers, bedding and dishes. Mum makes sure everything is clean
for me. I am sponsored by a shelter friends in Endicott, N.Y. and Shallotte, N.C.

Possum is a good ferret cub-reporter. Possum prefers to be a single ferret, she is not happy
around other ferrets so she spends her time spying on her mum to see what she can report in the
next news letter. She is a talker, and moves like lightning around the shelter. She is a tiny
little girl. Surrendered to us in October of 2005 for behavioral problems. Her behavioral problems
were directly connected to and due to her appalling living conditions. It took her less than 48
hours to realize she no longer was going to be returned to a filthy feces filled cage with cedar
shavings. Once she came to that realization she had NO MORE behavioral problems.
