As someone who has had to have an ER visit for my ferret in the past, I honestly reccommend setting aside at least $1,000 for emergency funds. Sadly because they are still considered exotic, most places upcharge. We found that out the hard way(our ER vet bill was $957). I would say $1,000 is a good safety net, especially if for some reason your ferret needs multiple x-rays, medications, or overnight vet visits. I loved your video though, you could own ferrets for years but always learn something! For sure going to purchase that air filter!

@meghanverret68413 жыл бұрын
Ferrets are huge responsibilities that not all apartments accept. They are wonderful, but very expensive pets. And 7 to 9 year commitments. Not necessarily ideal pets for broke college students, or new apartment dwellers. Apartments may not accept them, and if they do you may lose your deposit for destruction of carpet. I dont recommend for young adults moving out, its probably why there aren't videos convincing parents to get them for young people. Seasoned ferret owners are concerned about parents having to rehome ferrets or teenagers not having the knowledge to take care of complicated issues, like impaction and insulinoma. Few young people have the money and responsibility to take care of ferrets.

When my ferret, Bruce, was alive, we fed him a cat food. I don’t know what it is called, though. We also got him a marshals freeway tunnel, and he LOVED it. He went crazy in it. He passed away at the age of one from insolimona. It is really sad, but he is in heaven now. 😇

Do you have any recommendations on a good gate for our mischievous little noodles (Rocket and Alfredo)?

That octopus is awful 😭 I got one when I first got ferrets because a friend had talked about it, luckily they only liked the middle part and not really the offshooting tubes... I used it more for poop prevention then anything tbh. However one thing I didn't know about this stupid toy that I discovered after it got a small hole on the inside, it's literally lined WITH FOAM. That's right, the same thing that's inside your couch and has killed many ferrets with blockages. I flipped the whole thing inside out and it's horribly sewn, there was bits of foam poking out from inside the seams. I'm VERY lucky my ferrets will literally put nothing in their mouths that isn't food or a toy we give them but if my heart didn't sink because I know if it wasn't me who grabbed this defective one someone else possibly with less cautious ferrets could have lost their babies because of this thing.
