STRAY FERRET NEEDS A HOME... Can you help?

Naturalee · 26-04-2009, 10:21 PM

I have had a male polecat ferret given to me who is need of a caring and permanent home.
He was found as a stray and has been a little ''roughed up'' by another ferret judging by the scabs on his neck and ears which are healing very well.
He is tame and easily handled.
Unfortunately, he isn't neutered and so smells quite strong!
I was hoping to have him neutered and keep him with my others but unfortunately he is very aggressive towards them to the extent that I suspect castration probably wouldn't ''cure it''.
If anyone out there with experience of ferrets is interested in offering him a home please make contact. I am based in Runcorn, Cheshire.

Thanks for Looking.

i could give you names of ferret rescue if you need it

That would be good if you could linda. I've tried one but they're too full! Everyone seems to be ditching their family pets due to the credit crunch. Even the RSPCA told the man who found him that they couldn't help him!

I wish I could have him but I am too far away in Kent.
Such a shame as I would love to rehome him.

Hi Guys thanks for the responses. I've weakened and decided to have him neutered and keep him myself even if he has to be kept separate from my others. The things we do for our animals!
