Years ago when I was looking for a new ferret, the city here raided a
ferret shelter (that I didn't know about). There was about 89 live
ones. The city killed all but about 14 within hours. No attempt to
heal the sick ones. The SPCA won't accept them. Animal shelter
wouldn't accept them. Both were only for dogs and cats. It was a
ferret holocaust. They killed them all before any group could
complain.

I wrote an immediate email to PETA (headquarters in my area) and they
never tried to stop this. They never even responded to my email except
to add me to their mailing list which asks for donations constantly.
Screw them. They don't care about animals, they just live nicely off
of the donations while pretending to care about animals.
