Quixote 9 Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 found a ferret that i lost 3 weeks ago How long was she down for before you decided it was too cold to hang around? And why has it taken you three f*****g weeks to get back there to look for her? Jesus Christ! Quote Link to post

And why has it taken you three f*****g weeks to get back there to look for her? Jesus Christ! waited an hour for her then the cold got the better of us , it was our last set of the day , took me three weeks cos its 30 odd miles away where we lost her and dont get up there that often , she was in good shape mind . she been eating well Quote Link to post
Quixote 9 Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 took me three weeks cos its 30 odd miles away where we lost her and dont get up there that often All the more reason why you should've waited until she showed up then, surely? What if she'd re-appeared the minute after you'd decided you were too cold to hang around!? You've got an inherent duty of care towards these animals mate. If you're going to keep them, then you need to take the responsibility for making sure that each time they go down a bury, you hang around long enough to make sure they get back! If you're not prepared to do that, then maybe your local butcher is the best source of rabbit for you................. Quote Link to post
mickmck 716 Posted December 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 you never lost a ferret Quote Link to post
Quixote 9 Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 (edited) you never lost a ferret Nope! If I'm going to ask my wee beasts to work for me, then I accept that sometimes I need to spend a bit of time waiting for them. They work bloody hard for me mate, & I reckon it's only a right b*****d that will f*ck off & leave them to their fate. At the end of the day, YOU put the wee bugger down the hole in the first place, & it's incumbent upon you to wait for them to come back up! You want them to work? Well, if they're down the hole they're working!!! In nearly thirty years of ferreting, I have never lost a ferret beause I couldn't be arsed waiting for it Edited December 30, 2009 by Quixote Quote Link to post
