henry d Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Even though the weather has been welcome, I have just had both my ferrets escape, one was found quickly in the garden having a wander. However the other is still loose somewhere, the hot weather had warped the roof of the hutch enough to let a ferret through. The traps are out and so far we do not have any dead family pets in the vicinity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferret Master Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 He'll be back. Most likely curled up under the cage. Leave out food and bedding as well as the traps and you will probably find her inside. As for bobbo, I won't even ask how your ferret managed to encounter a badger cub.

henry d Posted September 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 Someone about 1/4 mile away found her and took her in and as they had 2x dogs and a few kids another friend of theirs said they would look after her as he had ferrets as a kid. She is a poorly looking soul as she has had an infection and is bony, she also nips a bit too, something she never did so must be well out of sorts and she is going to the vets in an hour. Plus points are the guy didn`t want any money for looking after her and gave me some dried food, hay and woodshavings and asked if I worked them, "Yes" so did I want his nets and a box as he doesn`t use them Truly a good person, I`m going to put some money in a thank you card for the young lad who first found her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
