Olaf and Stitch are brothers that do have a sooky side, they don't always tolerate other fuzz very well. These boys need a confident owner to help thier sweeter side shine through and like any good thing, this could take some time .
I would not trust these boys around young kids or other pets, they do need love and patience due to a horriblestart in life. This is because for the first 12 weeks of life they were fed a minimal amount of food and had to fight over it, which has reduced their willingness to trust humans immediately.
Olaf has had his tail amputated because of a vertebra that was knocked completely off alignment, before coming into care and both boys are behaving a lot sweeter now.
These boys may react adversely around bigger dogs, Frèle is from the same place and definitely is uncomfortable around bigger dogs. Changing the diet from species appropriate raw to kibble can easily cause behavioural issues and weight loss, as well as shortened life expectancy.
Any adopted out are to come back into care if the adopter is no longer able to have them, this is so the fuzzys have a familiar place for comfort and foster with view to adopt is also a option.
Bathing too much can affect thier coat chemistry and incorrect diet can affect thier internal chemistry, both of which can cause a ferret to smell more.
Changing the diet from species appropriate balnced raw to kibble can easily cause behavioural issues and weight loss, as well as shortened life expectancy.

Adoption details
Meet and greet with any adoptables you are interested in is strongly advised, before making a decision on who will become a part of your family.
There is a adoption form to fill out once a decision is finalized and any adopted out are to come back into care if they no longer have a place with the adopter, this is to ensure they have a familiar place to settle back down.
There is a trial period of 2 months for all in care, during this time if the pet is not settling in well or another problem occours then a new companion can be trialled or adoption fee refunded depending on the health of the pet. Outside of the 2 month trial period advice, help and food (at cost), will still be provided.
Please do not ask for a intact rescue as refusal often offends and it's in the best interest of the companion pet they have this done first, exceptions will only be made for those well known by me.
