Don't get me wrong, I'm not advocating breeding every yr, all my jlls are speyed, one off payment of £40- about the price of a good night out and no more worries There are plenty of kits available from good stock, from good blokes as well as the hundreds bred by plonkers every year that end up to fill the rescues, We do a bit of fund raising for the local rescue - after seeing the amount of unwanted kits they take in each year there's no way I'd breed when I can get decent kits from decent ferreters

thought id chuck my 2 p's worth in In my experience women of any species are complicated! It may look alright from the outside but you never know whats going on inside... the swelling may go down but (in my experience) it does affect the internal workings -hair loss is a good pre pyometra sign - usually starts from neck region and works down,seen one jill when spayed - life or death situation after being left in season,whose insides had kinda started to crystalise,another the vet couldnt tell where/what her uterus was, whole innards looked like a load of cat guts, it was so swollen -al

Theres a very good ferret rescue in Kent, at Harrietsham nr Maidstone.Roy the owner works his personal ferrets, he should be able to see you right,just google Harrietsham ferret rescue for contact details atb

I take it this isnt the sick jill? http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/topic/212413-my-ferret-is-very-sick/ How is she by the way?

i sure as hell dont feel sorry for the lad, feel sorry for the ferret

sorry, misinterpreted your post I only know of one who survived, had aplastic anaemia and pyometra,they jabbed her and gave her antibiotics,speyed her a couple of weeks later.Her internal organs had started to crystalise apparently,vet put it down to her being in season for so long - was a foundling so not sure how long

more chance than if he doesnt,dont you think?

http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/topic/212413-my-ferret-is-very-sick/ yeah does no harm at all?????

Stop wasting her time posting on forums and get the poor bloody thing to a vet and pray that its not too late for them to do something for her
