Harrietsham
Ferret Rescue is owned by Roy
and Christine Wilson.
Roy has had ferrets on
and off, throughout his life. But Roy and Chris started their
ferret rescue, over 17 years ago when they offered to house a ferret
while it was being found a more permanent home.
The ferret
was a feisty hob. His previous owners kept him in a 2ft hutch. He was
hardly ever handled and in poor condition. Roy and Chris worked very
hard and the ferret became a pleasure to have.
Roy and Chris then
realised that maybe there were other ferrets that they could help, and
started taking in lost, dumped, and abused ferrets
.
As with
most animal rescues, Harrietsham Ferret Rescue receives no
government funding. Roy and Chris give their own money and time, to
provide proper housing, food, vet care and lots of love to the ferrets
that come into their care.
