Lore

Thor and Shaye run a ferret sanctuary in Washington state, USA called Snail's House. This is a forever home for ferrets surrendered to the rescue. These ferrets are acquired through people who reach out and are no longer able to financially or physically care for their ferrets typically due to the ferret's medical needs.

Shaye is an exotic vet assistant who does majority of the care for the ferrets, including medicine, treatments, and all around enrichment for them while they reside at the sanctuary.

Thor does research on new treatments and nutrition to make sure the ferrets are in tip-top shape.

This is funded directly from the ad revenue generated on the Twitch live stream where you can watch them 24/7, including play time 1-2x daily. All ad revenue goes towards food, toys, and most importantly medical care for the ferrets. The stream started on March 9th, 2023.

The rescue currently houses ferrets, in various stages of life. See the pictures/pages below for more information about each ferret!

There is also two wishlists for necessities and toys for the ferrets: Throne Wishlist and Amazon Wishlist

Future plans

Snail's House is currently in the expansion phase of the rescue, hoping to house up to 250 ferrets by the time the real rescue building is built and constructed.

In the following youtube video Thor gives a 9 minute explanation about what the rescue does and the future plans for it: Link

Ferret merchandise

He long, he is fluff, and he can bend around your neck as a pillow! Beans loves to join you on all your travels and he's really photogenic! Get your own ferret plush to cuddle while watching the ferrets on the stream. Checkout the merch site to order your own 2ft long plush of Beans.

100% of the revenue of the plush sales will go to the ferret rescue.

Playgroups

As can be seen below the ferrets are separated into playgroups. When playtime happens the ferrets are let out according to their playgroups. This is because not all ferrets play well together or have the same energy level.

For example the Oldies like to take things slow, just eat their soup and then either waddle around a bit or find a place to chill. Compared to them, the Babies (younger ferrets) are extremely active and quickly overshadow the chill atmosphere the oldies prefer. There also could be different reasons for separating the ferrets into a group, like one of the ferrets of a group (they joined the rescue with) is overly aggressive towards other ferrets not of their group. Then the decision could be made to give this group a separate playtime.

With the exception of Ghost (due to behavioural issues), being put into a playgroup does not mean they will never interact with ferrets from other playgroups.
