LOST
Eddie
Name: Eddie
Breed & Species: Polecat ferret
Colour: White with Brown
SimpleColour:
Went missing: over a year ago
(25 September 2022 at around 23:00hrs)
Location: Wigan WN3 4AW, UK
Health: Healthy
Age: 4 years old
Sex: Male
Collar: No
Microchipped: No
Circumstances: Last night the wind blew my patio door on the 5th floor open. He got out of his cage and I cannot find him. The railing is too high and Slippery for him to climb over and get down. It would be a very high drop but a friend of mine searched the area surrounding the building because I couldn't bring myself to do it. He also searched the canal. I think he can fit through the slats across the balconies and have left notes with neighbours on this floor but I don't know if there is any other way he could escape to another level or the ground and I am completely beside myself. He is very timid with me but has been aggressive with others and has nipped people in the past. So I am concerned he may scare people. He isn't microchipped. He has lived inside for 2 years since he was adopted at a rescue. He is my baby and I have left his carrier and some tuna on the balcony and have been sat here all day waiting for signs of him. I'm worried sick. I'm meant to move in a couple of weeks and I don't know what to do.
Other info: He is quite chunky. He is very timid with me but he has bit friends in the past and is only used to me so I'm quite concerned about people approaching him if they don't know how to handle Ferrets. If he bites, he needs to be scuffed and he generally releases
