michaelw5753 0 Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 as the title says i left my cage open yesterday afternoon when i had fed the ferrets then at 9 last night we heard a sqeel when i let the dog out ant the dog started ragging an old chair from a 3 piece suite so i looked in and my girlfriends ferret was there [(its the non worker) so we put it back in the cage and went in search of my 2 workers. a few people on the street said they had seen one earlyer but i could not find it anywhere so called it a day. then at half 11 last night my girlfriend looked out of the window and my albino was just outside my garden so i got it back. just my black eyed white to find now, i've borrowed my boss's mink trapp and put some cat meat in so hoping it comes back Quote Link to post
