Hi Laura,
Wow - that's one lucky little fuzzbutt to have found you!!
If it were me - the only other thing I'd do is to call all the local
veterinarians to see if they have a client with a ferret that matches
that little lost soul you are sheltering. Not so much to return him to
his owners but to get a sense of health status, if even known.
Neglect is a form of abuse - I wouldn't return him to his owners, who
I suspect may not want him anyway. How likely is it that an adrenal
ferret with no fur, clearly vulnerable, would make a beeline for the
greater outdoors - unless it was a suicide attempt?
