Ferret healthcare tips

  • Ferrets are strict carnivores. Their gastrointestinal transit time is 3-4 hours therefore they should have easy to digest high-quality proteins.

  • Only let children play with animals when an adult is present - ferret bites can be vicious

  • Use a cage big enough for a litter box, room to play, and space for bedding

  • Regular ferret healthcare from an exotic pet vet

  • Training and handling to deter biting

  • Non-spill food and water dishes

  • Realize they are unique animals with peculiar characteristics and personalities
