UPDATE! WE GOT OUR BABY OLLIE BACK TODAY! THANK YOU ALL WHO SIGNED THIS PETITION - READING YOUR COMMENTS BROUGHT ME TO TEARS BUT KEPT ME GOING AT THE SAME TIME. JUST KNOWING THERE ARE SO MANY GREAT PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD WHO TOOK THE TIME AND WHO WERE SUPPORTING US AND OUR PLEA TO GET OLLIE BACK, RESTORED MY FAITH IN HUMANITY. THE FREEPORT ANIMAL SHELTER DID HELP US IN THE END --- AND THE YOUNG GIRL WHO HAD HIM TOOK REALLY GOOD CARE OF HIM WHICH MEANS THE WORLD TO US. NOW THAT OLLIE IS HOME - WE ARE GOING TO DO EVERYTHING WE CAN TO CHANGE THE CURRENT "5 DAY" LAW WHICH STATES THAT SHELTERS CAN ADOPT OUT ANY ANIMAL OUT AFTER 5 DAYS - WHETHER THEY ARE "LOST", ABANDONED, FERRIL, OR ABUSED. I THINK THAT THIS LAW SHOULD NOT APPLY TO LOST ANIMALS. IT COULD TAKE A LOT MORE THAN 5 SHORT DAYS TO FIND YOUR LOST BELOVED PET! I AM STILL IN SHOCK THAT IT ONLY TOOK US 5 DAYS TO FIND HIM - CONSIDERING THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT BROUGHT HIM 25 MINUTES AWAY IN ANOTHER TOWN. WE ARE SO HAPPY TO HAVE OUR BABY HOME! THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
(UPDATE ABOVE) PLEASE HELP US GET OUR FERRET BACK! THE SMALLEST MEMBER OF OUR FAMILY ESCAPED FROM OUR PET-SITTERS HOME IN LONG BEACH, NEW YORK ON MONDAY, FEBRUARY 23RD AND WAS FOUND AFTER WE CREATED A FLYER. THE PERSON WHO FOUND HIM GAVE HIM TO FREEPORT ANIMAL SHELTER ON WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 25TH. WE FINALLY TRACKED HIM DOWN ON MONDAY, MARCH 2ND IN THE MORNING AND THE SHELTER WILL NOT RETURN HIM BECAUSE HE WAS ADOPTED OUT THE VERY SAME DAY. NOW THE GIRL WON'T GIVE HIM BACK! IS THIS ABSURD? PLEASE HELP US GET HIM BACK... WE ARE HIS RIGHTFUL OWNERS WHO HAVE RAISED HIM SINCE HE WAS A BABY (HE'S ALMOST TWO)! WE LOVE HIM AND ARE HEARTBROKEN! PLEASE EMAIL: furryfriends@freeportanimalshelter.com - TO SAY THAT OLLIE SHOULD BE RETURNED TO HIS OWNERS ASAP!
