stubby 175 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Im sure you have already, but dont forget to inform the police, local cat/dog rescue centers, and also knock and inform all your neighbours, Quote Link to post
jultaylor1972 2 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Mine got out a good few months back - she was only in the street in a neighbours garden. Perhaps yours may be quite close? I hope you get him back. Quote Link to post
olliedakennard 0 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 The best thing to do is tell everyone around you that you have lost a ferret and that he is friendly, give them youre phone number and say can you call this if you see him. Make sure youcheck the rspca sometimes people take them in. Hope you find him. all the best ollie Quote Link to post
shula 0 Posted March 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 thanks for the repley and suggestions. i have contatced everyone i can think of even stood quietly while the woman from the rspca shputed at me for not having him microchipped even though we explained why he was not (been on lots of meds due to skin condition) He has escaped before but he was caught the nex day the thing was he was found quite a long way away from the house. it seems he just runs and runs untill he is caught. thanks again for the support Quote Link to post
sureshot 0 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 mine got out before and in a day he was retured he maneged to get into the local Football stadium p|ssing of all the players training lmao Quote Link to post
stubby 175 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 if he got out before, how come his quarters/hutch were not escape proof this time, dont wanna sound like Im on your case like an rspca officer, but it does come across as poor husbandry if this has happened before Quote Link to post
shula 0 Posted March 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 if he got out before, how come his quarters/hutch were not escape proof this time, dont wanna sound like Im on your case like an rspca officer, but it does come across as poor husbandry if this has happened before the first time someone let him out so we changed his hutch and run the wind broke not only the door hinges but also the two locks on the door trust me we did everything possible to keep him in. the winds were just extremley strong the other night Quote Link to post
Ron Weasley 83 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 It might be worth setting some live catch traps nearby mate. Hope you get him back. Quote Link to post
Scuzy 1 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 I lost my hob 3 weeks ago tomorrow because of the wind and i havent found him yet, its awfull when you dont know if they are OK or not and personally id rather see them die and know they are dead rather than worrying where they are and what they are doing all the time . I still dont know if mine is dead or alive after all this time and ive been looking for him EVERY DAY since the day i lost him and im going out with the lamp to look for him at 9:00 tonight :wacko:. I hope you find him and the best of luck. Luke. Quote Link to post

I know what you mean i havet slept since monday am about to fall into a coma i think am so worried but you can only do so much against the weather. i hope you find your hob i will keep my fingers crossed for you. have you tired advertsing on animal search uk its a free website where you can put up details about your lost pet also try the british ferret club lost and found section. as for live traps i was thinking about that but would proberly end up with nexts door cat stuck in it but i will probably set a couple anything is worth a try.

lgray88 4 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 yeh as ron weasely says , try a couple livecatch traps in the area and place some bedding of the ferrets around aswell something that the ferret knows , that might work not sure but anything is worth a try , hope you find him mate good luck liam Quote Link to post

Boojet 0 Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 you would be better off putting that money towards some secure housing,not having a dig at you, just what i'd do and many others too. just my opinion. All the best. ( meant money on microchip) Quote Link to post
shula 0 Posted March 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 yeah we have already started that. hes nto going out there untill its completly secure but still id like to get him microchipped. Quote Link to post
