Hello from Central IL!

[lauraleigh]

hey there! My name is Laura, and I'm currently owned by 4 ferret fur-butts. I love them all very much. I also have 4 guinea pigs, a red-eared slider, and a spoiled rotten dog named annie.

I'm currently working full time as a server administrator for an international grain processing company, part time as a veterinary assistant, and going to school full time in persuit of a DVM.... Oh, did I mention I'm also a single mom of an adorable 6 year old little girl? To say the least, I'm a busy person lol.

Anyways, I am interested in getting my babies on a natural diet to better their health, and hopefully prevent them from developing any health issues down the road, and I heard that this is the best place to get some great help with that. I'm completely clueless in how to do any of this.

Hi Laura! I'm Sherry, and welcome to the forum So glad to see you're interested in a natural diet for your furkids!
To start- check out the nutrition section. Lots of good info there. Ask questions! People are very friendly here, and really want to help.
If you think you'll need a hand, sign up for the one on one mentoring program. There may be a bit of a wait, as we are full right now, but spots do tend to open up quickly, as ferrets graduate from the program.
Looking forward to hearing more about you, your furkids, and your skinkid

Wow.....and welcome... you're one busy lady
As sherrylynne has beaten me to all the serious information about the site. I'm just going to say, Hi and please we love pictures of the little ones. I hope that I will be seeing you around, and please don't be shy
ciao

Thanks for the welcomes! I have added a request for the mentor program, so just waiting for a spot to open up. I'm going to see if i can't get a start on my own though. My little girl is going to be a royal pain. She's a kibble freak. I can barely even get her to eat ducky soup.... so we'll see how it goes.
