sounds like he didn't get enough mental stimulation & exercise while he was with them

When they took him, he would climb out the top of the cage and sit and wait for you to put his harness on. He runs backwards and forwards pretty slowly, unless you;re walking behind him in which case he wardances and jumps around sideways. He was pretty chilled and they seemed ok handling him when they met him both times :S

I'm currently playing him with ferretone so I can clean out his ears properly. Will take him to the vet tomorrow to get him checked out and see if I can book him in for a nautering so he can go in with my boys soon

ah yeah, if its slowly he does it hes ok its normal. Bless him he sounds cute, did you know you can pick ferrets up by the cruff of the neck they relax it dosent hurt them and you can clean the ears easily. I know i had one big albino male who used to have dirty ears alot even if i cleaned them often.

Today he was moving really fast and hiding under cupboards etc :S Ah I didn't know about the scruff thing

He is very cute ^_^ At the moment I'm giving him lots of fuss and attention and he seems to have settled down a bit but is still a bit too quick to show me his teeth for my liking. Can;t wait to get him home tomorrow, the parents are complaining he stinks even though he doesn't smell atall :S

He also has a new friend in the form of Ludo. They were cuddled up on the sofa earlier which I thought was very sweet

Peace

They were supposed to rehome him permenantly. He was for their daughter who is doing a course in animal care at college. Their reason for giving him up was a change in work patterns and their daughter starting college >_>

Well I told them that if they ever needed to rehome him again for any reason that I would take him. I only had to give him up in the first place because the sh1tty flat I moved into was way too small for him and his cage aswel as the rats etc. Luckily now my flat is huge, the ferrets and dog have their very own room

I'm just glad to have my evil little sod back. I missed him

Peace
