Use bright colored paper flyers. Remember, Kinko's is open 24 hours. If you don't want to use your phone number, use a friend's or call FA, let them know the details, and use that number.
Be brave: call your local shelter. Some shelters are ferret friendly and most will work with CDFA on relocation.
Let all local vets and pet stores know a ferret is out. People often take found animals to both places.
Post flyers at popular places: day care center, liquor stores, donut shops, and places where there is a lot of foot traffic.
Post flyers over a wide area; ferrets can travel.
Use masking tape for sign placement.
Use high powered lights that run off a car cigarrette lighter and flashlights to see into all the dark nooks and crannies outside.
Talk to everyone: joggers, kids, bikers, mail carriers, trashmen, ice cream men, etc.
Have previously trained your ferret to come to a whistle, squeaky toy, or something else. This doesn't always work when they are out in a new area and could be too afraid to respond.
Say a few prayers. A lot are found; some, we never know what happened to them.
