mancterrierman 1 Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 I GOT MY FIRST FERRET THREE DAYS AGO FROM A LOCAL GARDEN LESIRE CENTRE, AND THEY TOLD ME SHE WAS 15 WEEKS OLD. AFTER GETTING HER HOME I NOTICED THAT HER VULVA IS QUITE SWOLLEN, SHE HASNT GOT HAIR LOSS IS EATING AND ISNT THIN, IS THEIR SOMTHING WRONG? I DIDNT THINK SHE COULD COME INTO SEXUAL MATURATY THIS EARLY, LEAST NOT UNTIL SHE WAS A YEAR OLD? I DONT INTEND TO BREED HER AND WAS GOING TO HAVE HER SPAYED IN A COUPLE OF MONTHS. SHOULD I DO IT SOONER? IS THIS NORMAL? WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR HELP ON THIS ONE LADS AS IM QUITE WORRIED BOUT HER AFTER READING THE POSSABLE THINGS THAT SHE COULD GET IF LEFT TOO LONG CHEERS MANC Quote Link to post
Kay 3,709 Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 well she is lovely but if her vulvas swollen she is older than 15 weeks , last yrs kit maybe ? Quote Link to post
lorelei0922 2 Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 i agree too.. she doesn't have a kit look to her.. and if she was 15 weeks she wouldn't be coming into season... I'd have a vet check and get her jabbed then speyed if she is in season.. and have a stern talk with that centre for misrespresentation! Quote Link to post
droid 11 Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 Yep. Jill jab and spey. Sorted Quote Link to post
sue 1 Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 i would say she is 15 months old not 15 weeks ,and to get her spayed the vets wont do the op if she is in season so its the jill jab or a vasectomised hob Quote Link to post
Guest on the hill Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 she looks well older than 15 weeks mate and the season was hardly even started 15 weeks ago lol if at all!!! i think someones been tellin fibbs Quote Link to post
stubby 175 Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 all the above answers seem right, but next time you ask, turn the caps lock off Quote Link to post
The one 8,401 Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 Doubt if anybody has 15 week old kitts this season yet .And she does seem well grown so last years kitt seems to fit the bill .Good luck with her Quote Link to post
Trish_1967 0 Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 We have a garden/pet centre near Bristol that does the same thing. No matter what time of year you go there they will claim they are kits even when it is patently obvious that they aren't. Agree with the others on the jab/spey thing. Trish x Quote Link to post
