Vets today with the boys , Good and bad News

So they think Baloo is coughing as his steroid wears off and he’s doing ok so that’s all good 😊

Caspers news is sad he has a jaw tumour (Cancer ) we thought it was a possibility when he had his tooth removed and sadly it seems this is the diagnosis, He was doing so well ###
So it’s palliative care for as long as possible bless him still upbeat and happy in his self xx
Sadly he’s to old for the surgery and he would lose most of his lower jaw 🥹

Dorset and Somerset Turtle and Ferret Rescue has been run successfully for 18 years by myself with my mums help.we are self funded and are a non profit rescue with 100% of money raised by readings going to the rescue to cover the vast vet bills we face each week.
We are situated just outside Dorchester Dorset , the rescue is dedicated to the animals needs. The long term rehabilitation of abused, unwanted and abandoned ferrets and polecats and Turtles is an ongoing challenge. The Rescue provides a lifelong sanctuary for all the animals whilst every effort is made to give them a loving, responsible, forever home with us caring for their behaviour and medical need on a daily basis ,The Rescue provides a permanent home for those ferrets and Turtles who cannot be rehomed due to their health, age or temperament.happy ferrets
We work to raise awareness about the benefits of adopting these playful, cheeky and affectionate easy-to-look-after small animals and provide information and support to ensure successful rescues so that rescued ferrets can live out their natural lives in comfort and security.

Dorset and Somerset Turtle and Ferret Rescue is RSPCA and local vet approved, and works to their strict animal welfare guidelines ,We work hand-in-hand with other animal welfare groups in order to best further the aims of the Rescue.

'About Us
