Default Help winning a contest

Trying to win this contest for the organization I got my ferrets from, I also volunteer with them working at fundraising events here in Calgary. It's a pain in the ass, but vet bills are huge and these guys are awesome with paying for surgeries. My one guy "Donnie" had a $800 adrenal surgery done and they covered the bill even though they didn't have to.


Anyways, if you want to help, send an email to the following address;


mfs2006@ferretdepot.com

The subject line: "Ferret Rescue & Education Society"

Body of email: "Directors names are: Carol N, Sheila G, Mark B, Andrea H and Marcy K."



One email per unique address, thanks!



1st place will receive a $250.00 gift certificate & 30 lb. bag of Zupreem
2nd place will receive a $150.00 gift certificate & 30 lb. bag of Zupreem
3rd place will receive a $100.00 gift certificate & 30 lb. bag of Zupreem

Ken, I sent in 3 emails myself.

Work
Shaw
Hotmail

The info I got said "unique" addresses, but I can't see them disqualifying yours since so many people have hotmail and crap.

Thanks guys!

$800 for feret surgery? Yikes.
Are there two hot sisters (possibly twins) that work with that feret society?

Hot twins??? Damn, must be the other Ferret organization. Where did you see these chicks?

I should defect.


Yeah, they had to remove his adrenal glands, quite common in Ferrets. $800 is the most I've heard it cost, if everythign goes smooth and quick it can be as low as $500.

Sent in using all my e-mails. Hope your ferret people win.

$800 seems a little steep for a ferret's operation but I know what I have and what I would spend on my dogs so I guess it isn't all that wacky as I may think.

I know dude, vet bills are insane. But you love the little guys, and keeping them healthy becomes more important than spending the money on some other crap.

Thanks for the emails guys.

Not sure exactly, but the gift certificate goes to FRES, not to me. The rescue organization will use it to buy stuff and use the food to feed the Ferrets that are currently ina foster home.
