Happy ending to ferrets' tale

HE survived a full week on the Capital's streets after being stolen from his hutch in the back garden.

But thankfully Bud the ferret has now been reunited with his family after being found about 200 yards from his home on Joppa Road.

Bud and his partner Stella, a female ferret, were taken from their hutch in the early hours of last Wednesday, with Stella found almost a mile away on Argyle Crescent later the same day.
