Abington Ferret Refuge provides a safe haven for Stray or Unwanted Ferrets

A heart felt plea, Please Neuter your ferrets, So many end up dumped every  year, Last year was Awful with over 160 adults & babies brought to us, We are self funded & the cost of neutering is a Massive burden from our budget. For those local to Northampton we can book in & transport to & from our vets at cost for you if transport or working hours is an issue, Please ask for details

 About Us

 Abington Ferret refuge has been running for over 10 years & is now the largest UK ferret rescue

We are here to care for Abused, Stray, Abandoned or unwanted Ferret's also to help owners who can no longer keep their loved pets due to unforeseen circumstances such as loss of home or job loss etc.

We try to find perfect new Permanent loving homes when possible after quarantine, neutering & rehab if needed although any special need's or older ferret's will find a permanent home for life here.

We are affiliate members of the National Ferret welfare Society

Other services

 Micro chipping, 

Ferrets are great escape artists, Sadly many are lost every year (Mostly young un neutered Hobs looking for ladies in the spring/summer) & are never reunited with owners, Every stray brought in is scanned for a chip & If a ferret is chipped He/She can be home safely within hours of being found. 

Cathy can Microchip for £15
