Sebastian the Ferret

Upon the request of our subscribers, here is a video of the newest addition.
Introducing...... Sebastian the Ferret!
As many of you know, last fall my beloved ferret, Viggo, passed away after battling cancer.
Sebastian is a 3-month-old chocolate ferret kit. He is oozing with personality, charm, exuberance, and an inspiring enthusiasm for life and fun. This video showcases some of Sebastian's favourite activities, including stashing away numerous items that tickle his fancy, weasel-war-dancing about the house, going for walks down the road, playing with Nana and Kaiser, attacking the camera lens, learning tricks, and much more.
Sebastian is such a crazy, spunky character and is a dearly loved member of the family. I hope you all enjoy getting to know him as much as I have. :)

UPDATE: On June 8th, 2013, Sebastian sadly passed away from Ferret FIP, a relatively new illness in ferrets that seems to target youngsters. Unfortunately, there is no known cure and it is always fatal. Rest in Peace, Sebastian Willoughby... my little shadow. ♥
For those of you who would like to read about the incident, the following is a link to my blog post detailing it:

This video is the reason I now own 2 ferrets. Best decision I've ever made.

[@natalynnvanhorn5920]

looks like Sebastian had a bit more then a few cups of coffee xD

[@juliettaloves]

RIP happy fella. I'm sure he must be jumping all over the place in heaven.

[@cookieninjaproductions8369]

Sebastian is such a wonderful pet to have. With your two personalities combined together like PB&J, you are lucky to have a young ferret with a soft and kind heart (With a douse of energy to play as well.) It feels so heartbreaking that the member of your family in its youth has passed away due to a fatal disease. But at least you still have Sebastian close in your heart. Rest in peace, little ferret. :)

[@NanaBorderCollie]

Thank you for your condolences. Sebastian and I had a very strong bond. He stuck by my side no matter what, and actually whimpered if I was out of his sight.

[@wonderlanddreamer9248]

I can't wait to have a ferret of my own. Sebastian looks like he had a wonderful life. I'm sorry for your loss, R.I.P.

[@NanaBorderCollie]

I am sincerely sorry for your loss. I know how difficult it is to lose these incredible companions, as my first one passed away last fall at the age of four. Zink was an adorable ferret. My deepest condolences.

[@FireNIceAgility]

Wow, he has got to be the cutest ferret I have ever seen. What a fun little guy, I have never seen a ferret play tug! I love how well Nana and Kaiser get along with him.

[@MackiandNessaTV]

Sebastian passed away? Oh no, that is horrible. Rest In Peace wonderful little ferret.

[@CATMANTOO]

That is the cutest thing I've seen! and you have him doing tricks? That's just amazing!

[@britneylps2369]

I read the description and started to cry I have three ferrets and one of my boys was very ill and was losing his fur and losing a ton of weight and was super depressed and almost passed. R.i.p Sebastian U will be forever missed i know ur happily dooking around in heaven hiding socks. He had a short but happy life

[@EzraSol_]

I don't think he needs anymore coffee xD

[@jessicalaroche30]

He's so cute!!!! The music was really cool too!

[@CSImiamiFOOL]

I've got to applaud you. It is apparent that your pets love you immensely. Finding such a welcome, excited response to training and commands is a rare thing to find nowadays. I love the fact that you have such a close and beautiful relationship with your four-legged family members. Thank you so much for training them correctly and with so much love and happiness! Tricks are supposed to be fun for the human and the animal!

[@cherylc3696]

What a cute little ball of fur!!! You're SO great with animals. They couldn't have asked for a better home!!! God bless you!!!

[@laurikaportal]

Your pets are the luckiest animals ever; you spend so much time with them keeping them mentally and physically stimulated and doing so in a positive manner. Seriously well done and I hope to give my future pets as much attention and love as you give yours.

[@shannonrose6711]

Precious. I'm sorry to hear Sebastian passed. He was so precious, you picked a wonderful song for him and he is bringing smiles to me and my kids as we search for ferret care and play videos. It looks like he brought some happiness and smiles when you needed them, and for that, we love our pets even more. God bless you and rest in peace sweet Sebastian.

[@NanaBorderCollie]

I haven't been able to watch this video since his passing, either. It is too hard. I miss him immensely and am completely heartbroken about losing him.

[@elainewarren1294]

Your beautiful animals are so intelligent and I enjoyed the way they interacted with each other. You must be a very patient and loving person. Thank you for sharing all this love!

[@indecizive.v3A]

Now that's what you call energy!

[@kathy5667]

Your ferret is so cute!

[@NanaBorderCollie]

After he tires out from playing and running, Sebastian loves to cuddle. He especially enjoys curling up on my lap when watching a movie (he will oftentimes fall right asleep).

[@kiranacolestark1478]

The relationship you got with him is very adorable. He's very energetic and reminds me of my playful dog that passed away when she was a pup. A ferret is my dream pet and I plan on getting on when I graduate. This video made me want one all the more. You spend a lot of time with your animals. I love seeing the bond you have with you animals and is very clear that you love them dearly.

[@Binaatthelake]

Sorry to hear you lost your little guy, two of my sons each have a fuzz butt and they are both at my house right now. I have a bit more time for them and so they get a lot more socializing and into a lot of mischief. Both are now pretty much using their litter boxes and I have three located around the house as well as their cage. They sleep in the cage when I am at work and overnight, more of a safety issue than anything. I hate when they fall asleep when they are out playing it is usually in some spot that it takes an hour to find them. Love to watch the pair of them re arrange the hoards and then fight with each other when HE moves the ball to where SHE does not want it.

[@fernandowickrama5380]

Nana and Kiser have a new friend. so happy. now they have a new Viggo. God bless all of them.

[@HedgieBaby]

That had to be the cutest ferret video ever! Great music choice too

[@rawrleahhh7623]

Aww I love ferrets 💙💙💙 So much

[@WeeklyWhiskers]

Spectacularly cute! Just love Sebastian's exuberance and spunk and I can't wait to see more of this little guy.

[@NanaBorderCollie]

Absolutely, ferrets can be trained! They are a blast to work with. :) Ferrets do have a bit of a musky scent to them, but can be kept to a minimum when fed a high protien, high fat diet, and when their bedding and litter boxes are always kept clean.

[@CreekValleyCritters]

There is nothing quite as cute as a ferret :)

[@kimmobley333]

OMG, Sebastian is a bundle of crazy energy. I can't wait to see what you can teach a ferret. He seems to be having a great time with your other animals.

[@bijalpatel6629]

I cried hearing Sebastian's full story how he went to deep sleep. And visited heaven. I actually cried.

[@moon.7144]

This honestly made me smile. Thanks for sharing, and rest in peace Sebastian ❤

[@bearattackme]

I adore ferrets, especially the way their body almost curls when they run and hop around. So cute.

[@weavler2516]

1:57 HE'S SOO PLAYFUL!!! SO CUTE!!

[@weavler2516]

This made me cry! It's so cute!!

[@NanaBorderCollie]

Thank you! I always enjoy reading your comments. :)

[@staceykarey1696]

What a sweet and precocious little fellow! So sorry to hear you lost him so soon...

[@SstormSshadow]

How can someone...ANYONE...not love ferrets??Coolest pet in the world!

[@Mmmousemaid]

Not only are these Nana videos superbly done, but the music and songs are just great! I wonder if there are KZbin Oscars.

[@2shyjen]

You gave that precious ferret a very happy life! Awesome video. I'm sorry for your loss, RIP Sebastian.

[@kacy458lick]

I am so sorry for your loss! I can tell you loved him so much, he will be missed

[@iTerrify]

So sorry for your loss. I lost my 11 month old kitten July 21st. I know what it's like to feel like there's something missing. He was like Sebastian, always around. I got a puppy to fill the void in my heart but it doesn't make me miss him any less. Stay strong

[@pippaallen6461]

The bond you have with your animals is so amazing!

[@AKIABBRA]

This is such a delightful video!!! I have thought about getting a ferret, but needed to find out the cons and pros first. I was surprised when he was outside he didn't run away!

[@ZimmermanTelegram]

Lol when our ferrets run outside they don't follow me, they're too curious, I'd lose them immediately :D

[@shepherds4dogs]

You're amazing! I've never seen a ferret that does so well at tricks. He's a great new addition and I can't wait to see more of him!

[@naniengine]

He was adorable ;_; My condolences.

[@pineapple3744]

That is one hyper ferret.

[@johnwebster3936]

This is one of my all time favourite ferret videos, I only just now saw of his passing, your blog post brought tears to my eyes and I'm sincerely sorry for your loss. I've been teaching my ferrets tricks and I'm amazed you were able to get Sebastian to recall while out playing. I know that once my ferrets start playing, trick time is over.. I'd love to be able to recall them like you did with Sebastian, do you have any tips? Getting them to put their toys away in a basket also sounds amazing, how did you manage that? Thank you for sharing this video

[@mrcansever]

the most beautiful and well-trained ferret ı have ever seen.

[@desertcafe]

Sorry to hear about Viggio's passing. You were very lucky to have each other. :) And wow, Sebastian is a darling and a live wire. Best to you all!

[@jayceef7459]

he is so adorably cute and very energetic!

[@Sylvanas666]

What a cute little guy. Want to see more of him.

[@NanaBorderCollie]

Thank you. :) Everyone gets along superbly; there have never been any conflicts between any of them. Nana and Kaiser are both wonderful with other animals. :)

[@chrisbessant3315]

That is an amazing video - thanks so much for sharing it. I was amazed by the freedom he had. I'm not sure I'll ever be brave enough to let my ferrets walk without a lead but your little guy seemed to do fine. I loved his video - he had so much energy for a ferret and he certainly had so much life in him he makes me feel old! It's so sad he's no longer with you :( RIP little guy. What a great character.

[@soupysoph]

So cute, I have four ferrets myself, and whilst they are a handful to look after (especially my baby), they are very rewarding pets.

[@OpaqueDragon4]

I've just read your blog on Sebastian and it brought me to tears!!! I'm so sorry about your loss, I remember when I watched this video on the day you put it up and it made me love ferrets. It must have been so difficult to lose an animal that is a huge part of your life. My thoughts are with you xxx

[@whiteraven3502]

Absolutely beautiful, and put such smiles and happiness inside of me......I am so sorry for his passing...........I know your pain......thank you for sharing part of his life........he still gives joy.......xx

[@laserwolf65]

This video brings me indescribable joy. Thank you for keeping it up. I'm sorry for your loss.

[@Lrr0REglittafied]

His roll over was so funny! It was the quickest little flip!

[@EsStagefright]

I adore him, and the way your puppy was so chill around him was so sweet!

[@Snowy_Weather]

He's so cute. I always wanted a ferret myself, but my parents think they're very difficult to keep as pets and that they smell bad. Though personally I think that a ferret can be just as easy as any other pet if you give them love and attention. And I guess the smell is a matter of cleaning their 'toilet' regularly. Still, I'm going to have to wait until I have my ow place...

[@ShelterMutts]

I used to have a ferret, they are amazing animals, so loving and smart!

[@catalot]

What an adorable little guy!

[@melissaking8339]

So much cute I can't even! He's beautiful!

[@ellamason1120]

That is the cutest thing I've ever seen in my life!

[@RabbitsandHorses]

awwww he is adorable! Never thought Ferrets could be so interactive!

[@c.jsibert2171]

May his soul rest in peac, knowing he is loved

[@kellyemcguire8626]

He's so cute!

[@bubblegumtree232]

I was having a headache watching that ferret running around like that! Sebastian is so energetic o.o adorable!

[@NanaBorderCollie]

You will first need to locate a breeder. If you cannot find one locally, you may have to import the animal from another country. You can send me a private message on KZbin or post a comment on my channel with any questions you have. :)

[@Keilink]

Adorable. I'm always a bit scared to walk mine out without a leash because she's way to inquisitive, so it was really funny to see her following you outside :p

[@NanaBorderCollie]

Yes, I use the clicker with all my animals. For treats, I bought chicken breasts, thighs, hearts, and liver from the grocery store and cut them up (I do this for Nana and Kai, too). I find that commercial treats usually comprise unnecessary ingredients such as corn, sugar, and fruit, which a ferret's digestive system can do nothing with as they are obligate carnivores. He had a leash, but honestly he never needed it. He stuck with me no matter what and actually whined if I was out of his sight.

[@piperslife1357]

i was so sad to hear of sebastians passing on your site :( so sorry for your lose! rest in peace sebastian!

[@headphones1995]

He's jumpy and happy. Cute little guy

[@MissKinksAhoy]

It looks like the ferret had endless energy. It was sad to read that he died.

[@cenguin99]

He is beautiful absolutely adorable :3 love him and hoping to see a lot more of him! Great Nana and Kaiser love him as much as you do! He's very well trained for only 3 months too!x

[@ladyjovana2000]

He is so cute. He´s so amazing.

[@KateDixonCentury21Today]

I absolutely adore your videos!!! First off, I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of Viggo. He was such a wonderful little guy. Sebastian is so darn cute!!! You are truly an inspiration.

[@Emilyyllove]

How cute! So well trained too

[@Angelicagarsha93]

Cute little farret is full of life and even though it wasn't my pet it made me cry watching this video when I read that it passed away ,I'm very sorry to hear that

[@NanaBorderCollie]

It is never too late to begin clicker training! My last ferret was three years old when I rescued him and he loved learning tricks. :)

[@jaxgirl33548]

love the video,,,,,my daughter who is handicapped loved it too,,,,,it made her laugh and made her smile,.....condolences to the passing of sebastian....i am so sorry.....
