    Last week i posted saying that my ferret had a lump on the lower side of his jaw, well even with antibiotics, we lost ! The last couple of days i have spent with him, he detoriated a little more each day, and this morning i took him to the vets and he was put down. for those of you who gave advice thankyou very much. can't say that i am not completly gutted, it was cancer / lymphoma so the prognosis was not good. All i am worried about now is weather or not his sister will pine. I am trying to locate another two ferrets one hob and two jills to try an introduce them. once again thanks f

    its probally cheaper in the long run to buy, but i sit in the evening making my own nets it was the first thing i taught myself, and its true you can have conformity but you can also amke 5 small 5 large 3 medium 2 odd shape so you can suit yourself, i have not been involved in ferreting very long, but i can already see the benefits of making your own, i have bought some of e-bay but they were crap and i had to modify them anyway. your choice, sometimes its not just about cost.

    thanks Sue, Stubby, and Kay, its not an abcess as its solid and the fert is in no pain at all, the vet took bloods the first time and said it looked like an infection of some sort, i guess well have to wait and see give it time and all that, Stubby so far the bill is up to £109.00 thats two visits, one on a saturday, two lots of AB'S two check ups (no weight loss) and blood tests so in all i dont think i am getting overcharged to much Happy new year to all

    me ferret has got a lump the size of marble on the right side of his lower jaw, he has been to the vets twice with this and recieved antibiotics, the first time the lump went down no its back although he dosent seem as ill as he was last time, lymphoma has been mentioned but we have to wait to see if these AB'S work. i was just wondering if anyone has had a ferret dye from lymphoma what i need to look out for. hes not off his food and seems lively enough, he has no dihrroea or sickness and is really good natured. what i am trying to get at is do ferrets get lumps often can they come and go

    Hi there just a quick note my son got given two ferrets a hob and jill, great pets, but having got to have known them over the last year ( getting the bug they really are f-ing incredible creatures ) they are showing all the natural instincts of hunting, and i think its a crime not to work them, the only problem is that i have never ferreted before, so i havent got a clue as to what i am dooing i have read books, but they dont give you experience i understand the principals of hunting with ferrets, the only thing i am not sure about i how do you train them ( stop sniggering at the back ) my b
