Claudia’s life with ferrets began in 1998 after she adopted Zeke, a ferret given up because his young owner no longer wanted him. She began volunteering for Oxford Ferret Rescue the next year and before she knew it, was the shelter operator.
With 70 ferrets needing care, Claudia is up 5 hours […]
I got my first ferret from a local petting zoo as a trade for a bunch of feeder mice I gave them. He was an older boy and passed a way not long after I got him of old age. He was the one who started my love affair with ferrets. My second ferret was […]

How did I get into ferret sheltering? Well, I got my first two ferrets as a “round about” rescue in 2002. I work with the husband of a Veterinarian I use for my pets. She called the shop one day asking her hubby if he knew of […]

My sister had a ferret back in 1994 and that is how I got interested in them. My start in sheltering was actually an accident. Word got ‘around’ that I had them and people began contacting me with the usual, “I can’t keep it, do you want it?”.
We’ve had several special ferrets. […]

Recently my husband, Tom, reminded me that back in 2000, as my two almost-grown children were preparing to “leave the nest,” I said to him, “I think we should consider fostering a child.” It’s clear to me now there was room in my heart that has since been filled […]

We are a shelter; we adopt as many ferrets out that come to us. If they are in need of medical attention, they always receive it before being put up for adoption. If we receive a ferret in that is in poor health or very old and adoption is not in its […]

Wind & Willows Ferret Rescue was started to fulfill a promise I made to our first ferret, Kodo. We purchased Kodo 4 years ago as a therapy pet to help my teenage daughter overcome severe depression. She needed something to make her want to get up and get better. Kodo save […]
