Got a call yesterday from a professor at Troy campus, in Troy. His son had bought a baby ferret 5 months ago from a guy for $20. Told the kid to come back in 6 months & get a female to breed them. Now this kid couldn't handle the stench of the hob & gave it to his Dad, whom has fallen in love with said ferret. But ferret has become more smelly. I told the Dad what is going to play out with an intact hob. He had called several vets to see who can fix his ferret, before calling me & I set him up with my vet. Boy will be getting his boys snipped. I begged Dad to leave him his scent glands for defense shouls he get outdoors. I've asked Dad to ask son for name/# of person he bought ferret from. Also told Dad to do research at <http://www.ferretuniverse.com> which he was doing as we spoke. -- Sandi Robinson Heaven Scent Ferret Rescue/Shelter Midland City,Al 36350 334-435-9042 http://fuzzyslave.com http://www.petfinder.com/shelters/AL132 A 501-3c ,no kill we always need volunteers Please help us with funding & do a Good Search with us!!
