Hi, I’m Fred. I’m very happy to be president of the Manitoba Ferret Association as of April 2016 to current.

I first became involved with the MFA shortly after re-homing our first ferret Marty. Resources that I thought would be readily available were in fact quite scarce. A quick Google search and there was the Manitoba Ferret Association. My relationship with the MFA quickly grew. It didn’t take long for me to become quite devoted to the furry little brats. A combination of a lot of time on my hands and a love of animals I’ve had since I was young was all the catalyst that I needed to become a new ferret fancier. The more involved with ferrets and the MFA I became, the more I wanted to help, to share the knowledge I gained and help educate others. As an aspiring amateur photographer, I have the amazing opportunity to spend a lot of time with the ferrets in the shelters, being the photographer for the MFA just adds to the fun. I’m looking forward to getting out there and spreading the word about the MFA and the joys of having a ferret as a friend.
