Dameize 7 Posted June 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 Sounds like a plan. Im pleased I have someone who agrees might be the most financially wise option as well. Gives me an excuse to get another ferret also Quote Link to post
tote 843 Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 I'm not defending leaving jills in season as I would not do that myself but the poor jill in that link had been subject to general neglect, not just prolonged estrus. The vet involved who knows his ferrets, he beleaved it was being left in season that had caused her to be in such a state. I was just commenting on what it said in the article about the jill likely having been kept in dirty conditions. Certainly being left in season on top of the other aspects of her care that were lacking did leave her in a terrible state. I know the ferret and rescue personaly and from descussion with them, they truely beleave it was being left in season that made her so ill. So what your saying is the vet "believed" and the rescue "truely believed" it was down to the jill being left in season, so in reality they are only guessing. There is no proof whatsoever that being left in season caused the jill to be in that condition. When you read things like "her vulva was the size of a massive donut" you start to doubt everything else that's been written. Quote Link to post

Dameize 7 Posted June 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 you guys arnt going to believe this. one of the vets i contacted said The cost of the injection is £32. + consultation fee £24.75, this needs to be done yearly. There is also a implant you can have put in males and females this is £69.40 + consultation fee £24.75 this implant can last for up to two years. It is not recommended to have ferrets spayed or castrated anymore for health reasons. If you need anymore information please contact us on ******* and ask to speak to Deborah Stafford which is one of our vets. Hope this helps. Thankyou I replied saying for a 20ml bottle its like 50 pound so how is it justifiable to pay 38 for 0.5mls. rippoffs. Quote Link to post
