matmorgan 49 Posted August 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 wtf .thats not rescue.be cheaper for me to spend the fuel cost and go to melton mowbray market.cant believe people pay 40 quid Quote Link to post
bert the fert 28 Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 I don't know if it's the same in every rescue, but the one at wigan requests a donation of around 40 quid, but that's if they've neutered the ferret. Given that i forked out 100 per jill to my vets for spaying, 40 quid seems a bargain. Quote Link to post
tb25 4,627 Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 (edited) i sorpose it saves them goin to eny tom dick or harry to Edited August 4, 2010 by tb25 Quote Link to post
jac 12 Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 (edited) 40 is not bad if its spayed/neuterd. saves you the cost of taking it to your vet and risking the vet charging more. you would pay about £10 for a kit, then who knows how much on top to get it done. so i think £40 is a good deal Edited August 4, 2010 by jac Quote Link to post
Coneytrappr 30 Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Aye, quite understandable if the stinker has been spayed or neutered. Most rescues are in it because they do genuinely give a shit about ferrets, but they would swiftly go broke if paying for the spay/neuter, housing, feed and other veterinary treatment of sometimes hundreds of ferrets with no return at all. I am far more opposed to the muppets that breed 'unique' and 'fancy' colours in an attempt to make money, often to the detriment of overall ferret quality. Quote Link to post

That answer is so spot on coneytrapper Quote Link to post
dytkos 17,953 Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Ferret rescue near Truro, Cornwall ask for a minimum £10.00 donation. All ferts are speyed/castrated and vet health checked. Cheers, D. Quote Link to post
joe14 98 Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Normally rescues just ask the price it costs them to nueter em. Alot of em do go out of pocket if they just ask for any donation as the majority of times people just dont give enough. Quote Link to post
