I need advice.  Two of my neighbor's ferrets got loose last night and
one was killed by the family dogs after being trapped in some corrugated
tubing.  (probably thought it was a mouse, etc., got along with the ferret
fine in the house).  The problem is the other one is still missing...we
looked everywhere, put a havehart trap out with nutrical in it, used
squeaky toys.....The ferret probably got out last night.  I live in the
Reisterstown Maryland area so if there is anyone who sees a panda colored
ferret let me know.  Also, any suggestions to try and lure him back to
the house?  Do they come back to their homes like cats do?  Is it better
to look for them at night since they are noctornal?  Do they climb trees
and if they do, do they have a tendency to stay in the tree?  Any advice
is welcome....the ferrets got out through an open window the kids left
open.....sigh........
 
Thanks
