Shropshire branch of the RSPCA are desperate for ferret foster homes, if your willing to take ferrets on short term till their owners found or they get rehomed please contact Me.I will then give you the details of who to contact.
Many thanks

Just an interested thought but do the RSPCA supply food for the animals that they are wanting people to foster?

Yes food and all vet treatment is suplied by the RSPCA.

Thats good as some people have the idea that they have to pay all the bills when fostering animals

I foster rodents rabbits and any rodents and the RSPCA are paying my food bills and they pay any vets bills, check ups the lot all they ask is your time and care for that you dont get paid of course.
They really do need a Ferret foster home in Shropshire as the amount of ferrets each year coming in just grows.

The last time I went in to look at an albino jill with kits I was told she was blind and so were the kits.

The reason for this ignorance on the part of the inspectors was that their vet said that any animal with eyes like the ferret were always blind.

The jill and the kits were pink eyed whites and their eyes were almost translucent, there was nothing wrong with the eyes of those ferrets it just took a bit of an expert to put the inspectors and their vet right, even after owning ferrets for 30+ years I got the impression that they thought I had no idea of what I was talking about and that their vet was right.

Alot think anything white red eyed are deaf and blind as a rule and its not true.Im happy to say the RSPCA and vets round by Me arnt that blinkered to think they are all blind.

our jilly is albino with red eyes and she is fine,
some can be and some are not.

You say a lot of vet round you 'arnt that blinked' well it was the headquarters at Dorrington, Shropshire that the officers and the ferrets with the opaque eyes were to be found, both I and a friend went along to find out about the ferrets, but because the vet had said that all the ferrets with opaque eyes were blind no one wanted to rehome them

If your in Shropshire then you must be close to the Dorrington headquarters

Like other animals albino ferrets have three types of eye colour, red, ruby and black
