WHAT IS WITH YOU PEOPLE?
This is the shelter's page and I AM A LEGITIMATE SHELTER...have been for 30 YEARS!
What makes you think when I post that we have ferrets available for adoption that it is a scam?
Just because I won't let people, particularly RANDOM STANGERS into my home to just "look" at ferret does not mean it is a scam.
We are a group of volunteers who take surrendered and abandoned ferrets into our homes. This does not mean we let people into our homes to look at the ferrets. WE ARE PRIVATE RESIDENCES.
Any animal rescue is made up of volunteers who foster animals. They do not invite people into their homes to look at the animals. Generally, those rescues hold adoption events at pet stores. Prior to those events, you have to submit an application to adopt, and they will meet with you at those events where you can interact with the pet you are interested in. They consider all applicants and decide which applicant is best suited for the pet. THAT'S HOW IT WORKS.
I should not have to explain or defend myself as this should be common sense. In order to be a legitimate 501c-3 shelter, incorporated in the State of Nevada you HAVE to have your address on file and available for all to have access to - which means anyone can look me up and just show up on my doorstep, ring my doorbell and expect me to just let them in. YES, this happens quite often. Even though pulling up and seeing that it is a private residence, they still feel they can just come into my home, regardless of the day or time. And it is not just for ferrets. I have people show up with stray dogs in their car that they found and want to dump off, or leaving kittens on my porch and driving away.
Stop judging me for the way I run my shelter, for it is not any different than any other volunteer-based shelter in Las Vegas.
How dare you. How utterly and disgustingly dare you.
I am Angel Ferret Shelter and I am Making A Difference, One Ferret At A Time.
