Not as 'down' as his ferret, Mal..... Fair point Dave, but there's ways of speaking to people. Sometimes this site is a good advert for all that's wrong with society these days. I often wonder if it's worth bothering trying to teach my kids to be polite & respectful if no one else in this country bothers these days. Quote Link to post
lilpip1234 62 Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 theres quite a few guys on here having the same complaint so you cant blame him for not taking it down the vets its just a shame his died thats all. Quote Link to post

Exactly. I've lost count of the threads about ferrets loosing hair at this time of year. Quote Link to post

If the lad's new to ferrets he might not realise how quickly they can go downhill. If one of my ferrets was suddenly 'dopey and with slow reactions' it'd be up to the vets the next day at the latest.

The one 8,479 Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 Could be one of a hundred reasons but this time of year food poisoning with the food going off quickly would be high on my list Quote Link to post
