tommydeer 2 Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 (edited) Had a bit of a nightmare, the mrs pet ferret had got out this morning and its not been seen since, no rabbit holes in the area and looked all day. Been chucking it all day and put out a couple of big pipes with hay and food in too see if he'll curl up in there. Ordered live catch rabbit traps too! In the mean time, ive already started to look for a replacement or two maybe fearing the worst. They'll have a great home and be worked in the winter months, happy to pay for some decent stuff, ideally polecat x ferret. If anyone can help please get in touch, or if you have any other ideas on how to get him back cheers tom (sevenoaks, Kent) Edited June 17, 2011 by tommydeer Quote Link to post

NEWKID 27,131 Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 My little girl opened the door to mine last week. They were gone for 3 days the kids made posters and we put a note in the local shops. Got a load of calls and found em all at the local rspca centre. They said they get loads of ferrets in but they hardly ever get picked up. My littlr girl ( she's 3) was well chuffed to get them home she hardly puts them down and is on me the minute I walk in from work to let the ferrets out. Good luck with finding them mate let as many people as you can know there missing and you might get lucky. Quote Link to post
fcuktheban 140 Posted June 18, 2011 Report Share Posted June 18, 2011 I've lost my hob a few times. Sure he was on his way to a few local jills. Called the RSPCA after walking about looking for him and both times was already with them. Be ready to deal with ticks. Mine came back covered in them both times. Good luck mate Quote Link to post

Good luck mate Cheers guys, nothing as yet trying everything. Even went out and bought 5 live catch rabbit traps! If anyone is after any i got a good deal on the internet for them. Kent wool growers wanted £30 each, i got 5 for £55 off the net...worth it if they work Quote Link to post
