A CHARITY is hoping to find new homes for a bunch of loveable ferrets who have recently found their way to one of its centres.

RSPCA Great Ayton Animal Centre is looking for new owners to taken on the seven fun and friendly ferrets.

Females Belle, Snowy, Jasmine and Willow, along with males Wilfred, Norman and Horris are all hoping to be snapped up by adopters soon.

Norman was rescued by an inspector in Leeds and Wilfred ended up at the centre after being found as a stray. The other ferrets were rescued by an inspector.

Great Ayton’s deputy manager, Olivia Duffill, said: “If you love mischievous, silly and funny pets, then ferrets may be an ideal pet for you.

“Ferrets can be very rewarding pets but are often overlooked by potential adopters.

“They make fantastic pets and, when handled and trained, will give you hours of endless fun and laughter.”

The animals prefer company and live in groups so the charity recommends it is best to get a pair or a group.

They need to be fed a good quality kibble diet and can be litter trained as well as harness trained, so they can go out for walks.
