About the Xavier Canine Distemper Fund:

The Ferret Association of Connecticut is the fiscal sponsor for the Xavier Canine Distemper Fund. The fund provides emergency medical grants to any ferret shelter anywhere in the world that may be struck with an outbreak of canine distemper - a disease that is 99.99% fatal to ferrets.

One way we raise money for the Xavier Canine Distemper Fund is through item sales. We offer a delightul array of plush ferrets that have been dressed by volunteers; and sometimes a selection of unique items. 100% of the proceeds go directly into the fund.

We offer these items through this site as a way for people to make their selection and purchase.

Xavier benefit item prices include US shipping. International shipping is extra depending on what is purchased and how it is shipped. Pooled and multiple orders for international purchases are encouraged to save on shipping. Please inquire before finalizing your purchase. A PayPal invoice will be sent for the extra postage needed.
