...Sometimes I wonder if they were really saving me...

About Me

I am a photo major at Maine College of Art specializing in portrait photography. I live in a matchbox with my ferret. I do not smoke or do any type of drug, which, as you can imagine, results in me not being very popular since I do attend an art school.

I LOVE ferrets. I am a volunteer at the Midwest Ferret Fellowship shelter and I own two of my own ferrets who were former rescues. I do not approve of the purchase of these pets from stores before searching for adoptable ferrets at nearby rescues. They're everywhere, you just have to look. My Ferret Shelter
