The Ferret Nook Shelter/Adoption Center is no-kill ferret shelter established to promote the care and welfare of the domestic companion ferret. We provide information, education, and exchange of ideas for ferret owners, owners to be, veterinarians, and pet store personnel in all aspects relating to the domestic companion ferret. We are home to many wonderful adoptable ferrets, young and old. Some who require special care or medication, have become permanent residents. We also rescue ferrets in situations where they are displaced from their homes and re-home them when possible.

The Ferret Nook is supported by its members, volunteers and generous donations. There are many ways you can help; for example:

• Take a look at our members hard at work helping with Spring Cleaning.
• We hold Fix 'Er Up 'Er weekends. Click here to see our volunteers hard at work!
• We hold Brat Sales annually at Wal-Mart on the east side of Madison. Pictures.
• Members can also participate in many fun events hosted by other organizations, i.e., The Ferret Fiesta hosted by The Ferret Den in Milwaukee. Click here to see pictures and more from this event.

Ferrets are great pets but not a pet for everyone. If you are thinking about getting a ferret for a pet, please take the time to do a little research on their care and maintenance.
