All About Us
My name is Debra Sadowski and I have operated a rescue since July 1998 and have been breeding ferrets since November 1998. I handle and care for all my ferrets whether rescues or home bred with love and in a home atmosphere. I breed for health, longevity, personality and temperment first and foremost. Then for confirmation and color & pattern. My breeding stock is of foreign lineage including "FRENCH", Danish, Austrian, Finnish, Scottish, English, German, Swedish, New Zealand, Australian, Russian, Welsh, Norwegian, Canadian & Angora bloodlines.
I specialize in Siamese and Fine Points (cinnamon, chocolate & sable). Other colors available as well and I'm working on a "TUXEDO" & Black line. My ferrets have consistently taken 1-10th place at several shows since 1998 and recently on March 15th (2008) took "Best In Show". I am licensed by the State of New Jersey Wildlife, Fish and Game and we are an ADV negative & ECE free rescue & ferretry. All ferrets are tested periodically to ensure our ADV negative status. I am extremely selective with my breeding stock, only work with breeders who uphold ethical breeding standards and I do not inbreed or line breed. All lineages are verified prior to breeding to make sure that no inbreeding or line breeding occurs.
Rescue adoption fees are based according to age starting at $100 for a 1year old ferret and younger. Privately bred kits and adults vary in price based on their blood lines and color. Privately bred ferret kits going as pets start at $250 with a $25 return after proof of altering, and breeder kits start at $275. "WE DO NOT SHIP!" Ferrets can be picked up at a show that we are attending or at my home or even at my friends home in PA if I will be there or even sent via vehicle transport in the Midwest ( Nebraska, etc). All ferrets are vaccinated against Canine Distemper with "Galaxy D" and it is the new owner's responsibility to vaccinate for Rabies (Imrab III is the only Rabies vaccine approved for ferrets). All ferrets will be accompanied by ADV test results upon request if old enough. All privately breed kits going as PETS will have a pedigree upon request and sent AFTER "Proof" of altering from the new owners vet is provided to me by mail unless arrangements for altering are made prior to the adoption, in that case the pedigree would be provided at time of pickup. Privately Bred Kits going as breeders will have their pedigree at time of pick up if you are an approved breeder. I give Health Warranty (for my privetly bred kits only.) up to the age of 3 years of age against genetic defects or genetic illnesses depending on the type of Adoption. I need proof of this in writing from your vet for the Heath Warranty to stay in effect & just you calling me and letting me know doesn't warrant a replacement.
IMPORTANT: "For all persons living in New Jersey, PLEASE read my section on New Jersey Fish & Wildlife Permits for Ferrets."
ALSO IMPOTANT: Everyone also PLEASE also read my page "What To Expect When Adopting", this will give you an idea of what I will be asking and looking for in a home for one of my ferrets. I'm very critical of the homes that my kids go to and it is MY choice if I decide to adopt to you or not.
I DO NOT ADOPT OR PLACE MY FERRET KITS OR ADULTS FOR WHOLESALE PURPOSES. MY PRIVATELY BRED KITS GO TO APPROVED PRIVATE HOMES ONLY. IF YOU ARE A PET SHOP LOOKING FOR FERRET KITS, KINDLY LOOK ELSEWERE, YOU WILL NOT GET THEM FROM ME SO PLEASE "DO NOT" ASK. I ALSO DO NOT ADOPT MY FERRETS FOR RESEARCH, FUR OR FOOD, SO PLEASE DO NOT ASK.
{{{I aslo DO NOT adopt privately bred kits to first time owners, I will only adopt a rescue ferret to you if you are approved.}}}
I am a LOS National Senior Ferret Judge. I'm the only inventor and maker of the "Fuzzy Loving Ferrets Dry Bath Kit" as well as the "Angel Ferret", "Bridal Ferret","Witch Ferret" & "Devil Ferret" tree & table toppers that can be made to order. I also make polar fleece & polycotton "Bean Bag Pillows" (MY design is exclusive to my rescue.), sleep sacks & polar fleece toys in bright colors, patterns and sizes and now Jewelry.
On occasion I do ferret sit if I'm available to do so. The rate is $15 per day for 1 ferret and $7 per day for each additional ferret. Half payment of ferret sitting is required at time of drop off and remainder of balance is expected when the ferrets are picked up but you do have the option to pay in full at time of drop off. ALL ferrets must be up to date on their Canine Distemper & Rabies vaccinations and MUST be ADV tested with a negative result before the ferret(s) can enter my home and PROOF of these must be provided. You will also be required to sign a release form for medical attention if needed and you are responsible for ALL medical bills that your ferrets may acquire during their stay with me.

*********************ATTENTION:***************************
Until further notice I will not be taking in any surrenders or doing any breeding but for now I'm still adopting ferrets out to cut back on my numbers.
Unfortunately I lost my apeal case yesterday (11-4-09) and now have to come up with another $7500 to apeal that judges decision as he ruled in favor of my town who is against my rescue. The fight against my town has now been going on for about 6 years and I don't want to give up as it would not only mean closing my rescue but could possibly mean loosing all the ferret I care for, personal and rescues. I have 45 days from the date of the judges decision (11-4-09) to come up with the retainer fee for my lawyer. If you are interesting in helping finance my cause, please e-mail me at fuzzylovingferrets@yahoo.com or by calling me at (908)-454-5723.
Losing the war may effect other rescues in and out of my state as others may follow suit and put other rescues in jepordy.
