Success Stories
Operation Roger has had many happy endings from all the transports we have done. If you have a success story to tell us about a pet we have helped, please send an Email to operationroger01@yahoo.com and include a photo-we would love to share it with our visitors!
The latest completed transport stories are found under Information/Success Stories. We will add the update on the pet in red below our story. The stories found here are listed by the latest completed transport number at top. If you know your pets transport number, you may quickly find it in this manner. All of these stories will eventually be segmented into groups of about twenty.
This particular section you are reading now, located under Animals/Success Stories, lists the stories by the pet's transported alphabetical name. However, within the confines of each letter, the names may not be alphabetical. Confused? Don't worry. Scroll around and you will be able to locate your pet eventually. Sorry, but this is the result of the program, not us. If the pet’s name was changed enroute or at a later date, it will not show under the new name.
If you remember the approximate date of the transport and can't find your pet's story, Email us that information and transport name. We will endeavor to find the story for you.
We are always striving to improve our website. We hope you like what you see.
CINNABON #220
#220 CINNABON/#221 LITTLE MAMA (Ferrets) Louisville, KY - Gallup, NM
#220 CINNABON a 5 y/o 3# Male, and #221 LITTLE MAMA a 5 y/o 2.5# Female Ferrets were picked up near Louisville, KY, by team drivers Chris & Brandy P and safely delivered to their destination in Gallup, NM.
The ferrets came in a carrier and had food and water set up for them inside the carrier. Chris and Brandy report the ferrets were very tame, had great dispositions, and were definitely lovable. Their two on-board companions met them with differing reactions. Gizmo, the Yorkie, thought they were strange looking dogs and wanted to play while Little Joe, the Poodle, simply kept his distance. By the end of the trip, both Cinnabon and Little Mama had "kissed" Gizmo on the nose.
Little Mama and Cinnabon were rescued from a a large backyard breeder in Ohio who had over 700 ferrets outside in deplorable conditions. They were breeding indiscriminately and resulted in more of a hoarding situation than a breeding one. This pair are two of 14 first taken from the breeder, with nearly 50 more coming.
Transporting them to their new home in New Mexico clears out cage space to take in more of the rescues. The rescuers report "It's overwhelming!" Though not socialized when coming off the "farm", neither of these two were ever aggressive and once they were spayed and neutered, their dispositions turned into that of mushy little sweethearts. Mama will give you kisses and Cinnabon will cuddle.
Jerri C, the foster Mom, met this team with a sign which read "New Mexico or Bust." The receiver, Clover W, has a separate room especially set up for Cinnabon and Little Mama to enjoy.
Chris and Brandy didn't say if the rescuer's caution of "Once holding the ferret, a driver may have the sudden urge to acquire one of this lovely creatures" tempted them.
