2018 WINTER FLYER Ferret Association of Connecticut

Thank you for your support of the FACT ferrets! Please visit us on Facebook or our special fundraising/auction page at Ferret Assn. Fundraisers. There will be a new auction before Christmas!

Postage woes!

Postal rates are complex now, dependent on weight, distance, and size. It’s become impossible to set a fair “generic” postage price based on the amount of your total order.

Our online software automatically calculates accurate shipping costs. So, while this flyer features some of the new, fun items we are selling to support the ferrets, please order on our website. It has a secure shopping cart. Bonus! There’s a LOT more ferret goodies available there!

If you are online shopping-phobic, we’ll be happy to take your order over the phone or by email, figure out shipping, and get back to you with a total. Then you can send check, pay via Paypal, or give a credit or debit card number over the phone.

To order online: www.ferretassn.org and click on the left side Ferret Treasures link.

By phone: 860-247-1275 (please, call between 9am-9 pm East Coast time)

Most calls are returned evenings after work or Sunday morning.

Otter Bag—Let’s Play! What a wonderful ferret toy bin! But you could use this big, round duffle-style canvas bag for a laundry hamper or beach tote, too.

The main bag measures 19” wide and 16.5” high, plus handle. But tucked inside the top is a lighter fabric “extension” that pulls out and adds another 8” of height, with a drawstring top. The entire bag is 100% cotton and washable in cool water. Colors are natural, light grey and pale blue.

Otter Tote: $24.00

New Jewelry—A great little stocking stuffer. Ferret face imprinted into a silver-tone disk, about 1/2” around. Comes with an attached 18” silvertone chain with lobster clasp. Nickel-free metal alloy.

Ferret Face Necklace: $4.50

Luxury Fur Pouches—Our Luxury sleep sacks are made from lush faux fur and can last for years. Unfolded and used as a cage pad, they average 15” x 30”. But fold one half inside and you have a 15” sq. pouch that’s cozy, soft, and elegant. While all are washable, some furs can singe if you use hot water/dry, so cool settings are strongly suggested. Colors vary. Please choose from Light or Dark colors.

Luxury Pouch: $15.00

Ornaments—Cute as can be, this ladylike smiling white vinyl ferret (left) has an attached loop so she can hang on your Christmas tree. Since she’s soft and nearly unbreakable, she could swing from your car rearview mirror, too. She’s about 2” long and 1.5” tall.

We still have our exclusive felt ornaments in stock! Handcrafted in 3 different colors, they measure about 2.5”-3.5” long, 2” tall. Decorated on 1 side & slightly padded. Eyes are seed beads; mouth/ears embroidered. Please choose Sable, Silver, or Cinnamon.

Vinyl Ornament: $8.25 Felt Ornament: $6.50 or set of 3 for $15

Wall Art: Perfect for the young at heart and truly capturing the spirit of ferrets. Framed wall poster shows a ferret smiling up at a red kite. The text reads, “Don’t grow up, it’s a trap!” This is BIG – 15.5” x 24” – with hooks on the back for hanging. Print comes with an acrylic sheet for protection and is framed in a pine-look composite wood. Once they sell out the company won’t make more, so if you love it don’t wait!

Wall Art: $36.00

Ferret Plates: Whimsical porcelain plates. One says “I’m crackers about cheese” with a discretely briefs-clad lounging ferret. The other is riding a tandem bike. Unique!

Measuring 8” in diameter. While not very fragile, we suggest you wash by hand. Please choose Crackers or Bike.

Plates: Crackers $25.00 Bike: $27.50

Plush Ferrets: We carry a number of special ferret plush, many hard to find elsewhere.

The baby Black-Footed ferret (left) is from England and is no longer being made. He’s about 8” long including tail. You can also add on a mini-pouch in 3 colors that fits him perfectly.

The silver ferret (right) was made as a promotional product and only sold through special merchandisers. He doesn’t have the thickest fur—but he’ll remind you of your slightly older or adrenal ferret. He’s 11” long with wire in his tail, so not suitable as a toy for very young children.
