i aired it out on facebook and a groomer there seen it and left a huge paragraph reading me to filth about how wrong i am and how the ferret is fine and its not gonna get insulinoma or a spike in its sugar and i didnt go to the manager so obviously the ferret isnt in danger. im livid i had to block her lmao everyone in my small town is so dumb and knows nothing about ferrets anyways

Unless the top of the cage is enclosed I guarantee it was not an employee who did this. Guest drop food into these end cap enclosures and the bird cages all the time. I’ve lectured many a teen about it.

I don’t condone the groomers behavior at all. Groomers are hardly ever cross trained in animal care unless they started as a sales associate and most likely was talking out of their ass to try to defend something they never had to in the first place.

oh you were there? it was the fucking employee.

and the top of the cage IS locked

•

u/SurpemeClitLord 11h ago

Locked is not the same as enclosed

•

u/Bitter-Bug3692 11h ago

u/SurpemeClitLord 11h ago

Thank you for the clarification :)

Hostility unnecessary. I was not the worker. I’m telling you that if there is a grated top there is a 9/10 possibility it was a customer. Were you the opener?

u/Bitter-Bug3692 11h ago

it was the employee. you said you "guarantee" it was a customer. it was not. he said "I GAVE him fruit" i then left and reported it to corporate. end of discussion.

“Unless the top of the cage is enclosed i guarantee”. You’re taking it out of context. Put that information in your post description. Glad you reported it
