Cassie and Ginger Playing |
Cassie was
once a breeder mink. She escaped. Ranch mink do not have the skills they
need to live in the wild effectively, so Cassie went to the only place
she knew she could find food.....a house. She found a place where the
people fed their cats in the garage and moved in. The owners, however,
were not thrilled with the idea of a mink living in their garage. So
when they saw her, they called someone to come get her.

Cassie's Home |
I heard about this homeless mink and wanted to adopt her. My raccoon was
suffering from the loss of her best friend who was a mink. So I was
hoping that Cassie and Ginger could learn to get along and they could be
friends. It took a few weeks, but Cassie and Ginger have become friends.
Ginger is delighted to have a mink as a friend again. And Cassie is
thrilled to have a safe place to live where she is fed without fear of
being pelted.
Cassie has learned how to play gently with me and is great with Ginger.
Due to her background, I do not have other people handling her. She
loves to play games where she stalks Ginger and I. She also loves to
swim in the bathtub filled with water. She is a calm and happy girl now. |
