West Wales Ferret Welfare
Important West Wales Ferret Welfare update
Please don't ask me to help with re-homing ferrets because I can't take in any more rescues. At the moment I have 4 groups of ferrets and other animals and barely have any time for myself and life is not running smoothly for me right now with other problems. All the losses have hit me hard, I get very depressed at times, and my health is generally not good so I just don't want a large number of ferrets anymore. The veterinary costs are also horrendous. I want to have quality time with my ferrets which is only possible if I don't have too many (groups). So I will not be taking in any more ferrets unless it is an emergency, a stray, biter etc. If you have ferrets and decide to give them up, then please find them a *good* home yourself. You decided to have ferrets, they're your responsibility, and in an ideal world you would look after them until they die. I am getting really sad when I think of all the ferrets/ animals that are discarded like an old unwanted toy. To look for a new home, put "ferret rescues" into Google and have a look, or get in touch with the "National Ferret Welfare Society" or a big rescue like "Mercia Ferret Welfare" as those 2 have a lot of contacts all over the UK and can help better than I can... The RSPCA is another possibility although many centres will put ferrets to sleep if they don't find a home within 24 hours!
