Vernon local Danielle Percy is hoping someone has seen her daughter鈥檚 ferret.

Seavey is 14-year-old Sienna Percy鈥檚 emotional support animal. According to his owners, Seavey slipped outside of their house around midnight on Monday, May 13 when Danielle was letting out her dogs.

鈥淪ienna deals with severe anxiety and she hasn鈥檛 been in school for over a year and we home-school. She got him a year ago and he is her emotional support animal, so if she鈥檚 upset or super anxious, he鈥檚 with her,鈥 said Danielle.

鈥淲e started searching around 4 a.m. when I realized he was gone until about 10:30 p.m. on Tuesday, and then again all day after work yesterday. So far, we鈥檝e spent 20 hours out in the rain looking for him.鈥

The pair are hoping to to rally some community support in the hopes to find him as quickly as possible.

鈥淗e is friendly but won鈥檛 necessarily walk up to you, he may come to a squeaky toy,鈥 wrote Sienna in a . 鈥淚 really, really need him to come home [as] he plays a very important role in my life.鈥

The Percy鈥檚 live off of 39th Avenue between 12th and 16th Street near Silver Star Elementary School. Danielle said they believe he was last seen around 40th Avenue and Cascade Drive on Tuesday, May 14.

鈥淗e could be anywhere,鈥 she said. 鈥淲e have tried to put harnesses on him and we wanted to get him a GPS tracker but he slips out of every type of harness we鈥檝e tried so that wasn鈥檛 a preventative option for him.鈥

She said that if anyone sees him, to not be afraid to pick him up because he is 鈥渧ery friendly and doesn鈥檛 bite.鈥

鈥淪ienna is pretty upset about it and she鈥檚 just had a rough go in life the past couple of years and Seavey was really helping her out,鈥 she said. 鈥淲e鈥檙e just really hoping to find him soon.鈥

Anyone who has seen Seavey is asked to call 250-540-4861 or the SPCA, who have also been notified.
