Three-legged 'lovable' ferret Lawrie in Glasgow care centre looking for forever home

A three-legged ferret is on the hunt for his forever home after being in care at a Glasgow centre for 40 days.

One-year-old Lawrie is currently being looked after by the Scottish SPCA's Glasgow Animal Rescue and Rehoming Centre.

Described as a "lovable chap", Lawrie had to have a leg amputated after being found wandering a field with injuries. However, staff stress this doesn't slow him down, saying he has been "nothing but friendly, loving and very inquisitive".

Rachel Mansfield, assistant centre manager, said: “This loveable chap arrived with us after being found wandering around in a field by himself.

“Unfortunately, he had sustained some injuries which has resulted in Lawrie having to have a forelimb amputation.

“This doesn't hold him back however, as he has been nothing but friendly, loving and very inquisitive with the staff who have been looking after him.

“Because Lawrie is adjusting to his new life with three legs, we are looking for a home for him where his housing can be on one level to prevent him from struggling up and down.

“Lawrie doesn't let anything get him down and loves to spend his time by playing with his toys then settling by wrapping up in a cosy blanket for a nap.”

If you think you can offer this friendly ferret a home, then please apply via the Scottish SPCA website: https://bit.ly/3Gu2r8s
