My first ferret came from a home where he was called Fairy and ignored and everything. He is a miracle. He does not bite, He has no aggression, He is affection, Even though he was ignored for mostly all his life he is amazing!!! I now have 3 ferrets and out of all of them Sammy is the sweetest and probably has the most personality. He loves his brothers Rocco ( sable mask oldest of the group almost 3) and Draco ( Blaze youngest of the group almost a year) they are just amazing creatures! I payed 150 for him

Marshall isn't good unfortunately,and other commercial ferret products usually aren't good for them ferrets are carnivorous which means theyre only suppose to eat meat. An air purifier will help with the smell to. Never use a shampoo that contains teatree oil its bad for them as well. They need at least 4 hours of out of cage time. This is for people wanting to get ferrets. Normally I have a lot of complaints about ferret care videos yours isn't to bad though .

Great video! I just got my Moby he's 3 months old, he is energetic and so smart 😊 I have the same shampoo that you showed and the same ferret food, I've had many bites too so far but I have been spending a lot of time scruffing him, I also hiss and say no while looking at him eye level. I've been doing this every day playing with him, and picking him up. I'll wrap him in a blanket and let him fall asleep on my lap or in my arms and I'll rub his head and belly. I've also been working on traing like calling out his name all the the time I saying Moby Come and I'll tap the floor and click my tongue he's been responding well, and comes when he's not distracted. 🤣 I feel like I'm relating more with him than I would with a dog or cat, he's so curious and I know I can teach him so many things! Oh forgot to say I think the pee pads are an awesome idea. I'm going to get some! Thanks for a great video 😊

The cost to worry about are the vet bills. Ferret owner since 86. In most places ferrets are still considered exotic and due to their small size, they are complicated to perform surgery on. Have a sizeable fund set aside for vet bills.

Now at Petco they are $200. We adopted 2 1yr old ferrets but we did buy one baby male because I’d never had a baby & he was so cute! I’m enjoying watching how others have their fuzzbutts set up to see if someone has a better or easier way of doing things. My twins aren’t great about caring for them so I have to go behind them. I wish mine would use pee pads! They just want to shred & play with the pads. I tried putting them in the litter boxes & they will sleep on them. I just gave up & went back to the pellet litter. Wysong Epigen 90 is a great food! Mine are so much bigger with softer thicker coats.

The smell of ferrets can be eliminated if you are diligent about cleaning their ears. If it's the litter box smell that concerns you, Bi Odor is a natural additive you can mix with their water. Another option is this ferret-specific conditioner called "Smellin' Good". Smells like coconut and keeps their skin from drying out. AMAZING!

If you can't do the things suggested in the video, please do not get a ferret!

Thank you! I asked my dad to ponder getting me a ferret for my graduation gift (he asked me what I wanted and I said i'd let him know) and I knew I either wanted a rat or a ferret. I frequently go to the petstore to hold and play with them, and they're so sweet. I love them. Now, I've had hamsters and guinea pigs before so I *KINDA* knew what I was wanting to get myself into, but I wanted to do the extra research first. These have been very helpful because well...like you said, they're not rodents. I actually do have a few quick questions. 1.) Can I keep him in my room if I do end up getting one? 2.) If I do get one and he is in my room, should I rearrange my room to where the corner that my bed is in is showing so i can put a pee pad there? 3.) When playing with him, is it okay for me to put a harness and lead on him when going outside of my room? (Going outside is a no brainer for that, but like in the house?)

Rats are definitely an easier pet to care for! I’ve had both Rats and Ferrets. Upfront, a ferret can be over $500. You can keep your ferret in your room, however, they need at least 4 hours of play time(outside of the cage), supervised of course! Until you know what corner the ferret wants to use the bathroom in, I would place litter pans(With Pine/Paper litter- NEVER clay or dust litter) in each corner. If you use pee pads, they work well, however they get expensive. But until you know the favourite corners, add pads/pans in every corner. Ferrets do well with leads and harnesses when they get used to them. You can bring them outside your room and outside your house! I would just use flea treatment for Ferrets because they can get fleas and other parasites. Also, ferrets need to have shots like a dog. Distemper is a fatal sickness that they can get, and they can harbor rabies. So they will need to go to the vet every couple of months. They get pricey and they can be high maintenance. Furthermore, kibble shouldn’t be a first consideration as far as food goes. They really need raw diets, that’s what they were designed for. However, the raw diet is expensive and has strict guidelines for nutrition. Honestly, I love ferrets, but for someone getting a ferret as a gift, I wouldn’t recommend it. They require money, time, and lots of knowledge.

hey i see that this was uploaded like 3 years ago so you may already know this now, but just in case you dont, ANY type of soap is bad for your ferret. Im pretty sure the soap you showed in the video is especially bad, i could be wrong but if im not, it contains tea tree oil which is very toxic to ferrets. Now yes, you can still bathe your ferrets warm water with or without oats will do the trick, and only bathe them every 3-4 months. I like to compare it to dying hair, once you dye your hair you wait around 3-4 months before doing it again to avoid drying out or damaging hair, same goes for ferrets and baths. Bathing ferrets with soap is far too stripping because they dont have very thick undercoats, yes theres soap thats advertised as gentle but thats mostly because companies know that new ferret owners are going to try and get rid of the natural smell that ferrets have. Anywho im not trying to be rude in any way, just informative in case you still dont know, and if you didnt know i encourage you to do your own research on this of course. Other than that, great video (:

I’d say they need at least 5-6 hours (on week days) of play time/free roam time. And water bottles aren’t good for them. Because of their high protein diet it contains salt and they can then become thirsty all the time. But the nozzle on pet water bottles is too small for them to get sufficient amounts of water. So I’d suggest getting a water bowl you can attach to the cage for anyone who has or is getting ferrets :)))

I really want one but I’m not sure my mom will be okay with expenses. I have a cat at my dad’s house and you get used to the smell and then you don’t even notice.

This was really helpful dude. It literally had all the info I needed in order to educate my mom on basic ferret care. I would have never thought to use pee pads instead of a litter box. Thanks again for this video. You made my life easier :)

You feed them Origen cat & kitten food? Did I read that correctly? I adore my ferret & spend 2-3 hours playing with her!!! And, sleep in the room with her. She wakes me up by licking my eyelids🙂. Bc of u, I’ve given up the fluffy bedding & use cat beds & felt bedding for them to hide in. I think she’s happier. Pls respond about the food & water- do they really need filtered water. THANK YOU! You’re amazing!!!

I heard that the minimum amount of playtime and free roam time you should give your ferret is at least 4 hours a day.

You should give your ferrets a water dish. They drink a lot of water and a bottle can cause dehydration and they also like to wash their face with water.

I agree about the litter box but also people don’t seem to understand they just back up into the corner so they don’t understand why their ferret won’t go in the litter box and so the owner is actually cleaning more than a litter box and the pee pads are easier to clean Also people say that Marshall’s ferret brand is very bad for them what is your input on that? I feed mine Marshall Because she is a Marshall ferret I also give my ferret a bath once a week and and she smells good all week and if she rolls into her pee because she tends to do that a lot I will rinse her off Also you have earned a subscription from me because you are the only nice ferret teacher on KZbin Also I give her free roam unless she is in her play in but her free roam is always only limited on one room she sleeps in a bathroom with a blanket and her cage is open and she can get her food and water and during the day she plays in a room that only has a couch and a coffee table

Hey my mom really doesn’t want me to get a ferret but she will let me get many other things for example I had a hedgehog and gave it to a close friend because I was just scared of her 😂 but ferrets seem like an amazing pet for my age and my schedule, my mom doesn’t want one because of the smell. Do they smell up your house/or apartment, this is honestly the only pet I want atm 🤷🏼‍♀️

I currently dont have a budget to afford a new cage for my baby ferret next year. I was planning on using a chinchilla cage while its a baby and as it grows i will upgrade. Is that healthy? I dont really have a choice because my mom doesnt like spending money but ya know. Just to be on the safe side.

Hi, you've got great info, with the exception EVERYONE else says 'either free roam, or have them out 4 hours a day.' You said 2, so please increase they're out of cage time 🙂 What bothers me is how often you reference against hamsters! "They can't live in hamster cages!" "They're not like hamsters!" My hamster, Daisy, lives in a 200 qrts bin cage with around 700 square inches of floor space! Hamsters need at the BARE minimum 450, and that's not worth calling 'a tiny hamster cage.' Please STOP saying bad things about hamsters, you've never had one, you don't know how sweet, energetic, darling, and did I mention ADORABLE they are! Other than those two things, I think you're doing awesome with your ferrets, keep up the good work, and I hope you're ferrets live the longest lives possible, because they must be very happy!
