A Ferret in the garden

We’ve had a busy weekend with cats, dogs being brought in and then our last rescue was a ferret.  He’s a handsome youngster  (or a she, we’re not on such familiar terms that we can find out as yet!) past the baby stage but not grown up yet.   He has a lovely coat with peach, pearl gray and white patches and the lovely inquisitive ferret face – they always seem to be asking questions – where’s my tea, can I come out, will you pick me up ……. etc. etc.

He was found in a garden.  The lady of the house picked him up in a towel and popped him in a cat basket and brought him in to us.  He’s a bit shy and wondering where he is so we’re letting him settle.   We made him a home in a cage in the lunch room where he can see everything that’s going on and get to know us.

So far we haven’t any idea where he’s come from.  It’s only rarely that ferrets are claimed, usually they have been abandoned but we’ll give it a few days and see if anyone comes forward.  We’ve called him PEPPER  and if you’d like to come and meet  him please get in touch.
