My mom is VERY hesitant in owning a ferret but I've been trying to ease her into it by bringing up small facts or cute things they do. I convinced her to let me have rats in the past so I think I can convince her to let me get a fluffy slinky boi :') wish me luck y'all

I bought my ferret from a lovely farmer and his wife. They bred them but their ferrets were all lovely well loved pets. Once a female had a litter they had them done to stop them breeding again and didnt die from not breeding. Here in the uk pet stores dont really sell ferrets so the only choice I had was to look to adopt or buy. Adopting turned up nothing so I looked about for responsible breeders

Pet Supermarket, petstore like PetSmart or Petco, but they usually sell ferrets, usually 2 and usually a male and female together, but if u only buy one, they wont bring in anymore til the last one is sold...its how i got my lil Booba, and hes thriving beautifully. And btw, my lil guy came from Marshall Farms, and hes healthy as can be. I dunno the real T about them, but my babys healthy and had a check by vet before purchase, from the store, and had a complete med history before i even exchanged money. So...this was in NC as well. I have no complaints.

I used to work at Petco and I made it a point to let everyone on my team know about safe kibbles to feed that we sold, we don't get paid to promote at Petco-we're just underpaid and not trained and I imagine the same applies to other pet stores. Before owning ferrets I owned hamsters and I guess the hamster community has made it a point to make sure people know not to trust employees because when I first saw a ferret I had no idea what it even was and I still didn't ask the employees at the store!! Haha... I did all the research overnight, bought everything and had it shipped overnight then went to get my first ferret as soon as the store opened!! I felt super bad for impulse buying(because I had only ever adopted animals) but she was the cutest thing in the world to me at that moment. A month later I adopted another ferret that way she would have company, sadly my biggest regret/mistake was purchasing a ferret but I don't regret buying her. Every ferret owner makes mistakes at first and the best thing we can do is learn from them :D

I got my ferret, Ozzy last year when I was 12. I’m a pretty responsible pet owner, and I did TONS of research before getting him, but I skipped over some of it and obviously made a pretty big mistake. I fed my baby Marshall farms for a while and I am now realizing that in no way should I support the company or continue to feed him the kibble. I have ordered some new food that is highly suggested (can’t quite remember how to spell it) but I hope to get him on a better diet and give him a better life (he was adopted from a rescue)

There's a German brand called Frettchen4You. They make high quality kibble for ferrets, made by experienced and passioned ferret breeders. Also, you don't have to adopt, there's also ferret breeders out there that are very good at what they do. Many european breeders gladly sells to America, to help irradicate Marshalls horrible breeding facilities and make it easier for Americans to get a healthy, good pet whose herritage they can follow back to the very first breeding in their bloodline. A solution to wanting a ferret, but not having the possibiliti to free roam enough - make a ferret room with no cage, or an outdoor aviary where they can run and play as they want :)

I have heard of that brand, however I am having trouble translating the website. I'm not sure if we are able to order that in America. Yes there are breeders but they are very infrequent in the U.S. many of them are not considered reputable and have bad reputations for one reason or another. I am unaware of any European breeders that would ship an animal to the U.S, we have so many unwanted ferrets here so I wanted to promote that in the video. I am no way against breeders, but for ferrets we have such an influx in the shelters right now.

She's such a good breeder, but I am aware that many only breed for profits and don't do enough for the health part of the blood lines. We luckily rarely have ferrets in shelters over here, probably because most ferrets are sold directly from breeders with contracts stating that you will return them to the breeder should you be unable to keep them at some point :)

Growing up my husband had 6 or 7 ferrets. He wound up moving to the basement so the ferrets had their room to free roam all day and then they were only in the cage at night or during cleanings. He absolutely loves them. However his friend recently impulse bought 2 ferrets because he saw them and he had nothing prepared for them. It was horrible. I was so mad and frustrated he didn’t research. My husband then spent hours telling him what he needed to get for the ferrets like a big cage and litter box and the food they eat. It was a disaster and thankfully he has listened to my husbands advice and followed his instructions. Ferrets are amazing fun animals but they are mischievous and love to get into trouble.

6 hours in the cage is fine, people go away for normal work days of 8-9ish hours. As long as the ferret gets play time (out of the cage) before and after school for as long as you can.

Thank you for making such an in depth video about ferrets! I'm hopefully going to be getting ferrets soon, and as an exotic animal owner I totally agree on the setting money aside for vets! Here it's a minimum of $85 to just SEE the animal, nevermind the testing and treating them. It's so so important to have money saved up when buying a new animal, especially with uncommon or exotic animals.

I was happy to upgrade his home ❤️ and he seems so happy now too (not that he wasn’t happy before) haha. Thank you for this video! Also, we let our ferret free roam 90% of the day with us! Especially while we’re home since we lost our jobs March 19th due to Covid 19. We don’t however feed our ferret raw diet but I will now be looking into this! I don’t want my baby to get sick 😷 !

Katna Marsh they were probably brought up on pellets. Try slowly adding that kind of stuff in with the dry food. Ferrets are super picky eaters and it’s hard to change there diet and it can take a few months but just be patient and add small bits in there food and gradually increase that amount

I thought I was doing right with the paste. Glad to know I shouldn’t. We do keep them in the living room as much as we can. They use the furniture as a jungle gym. Lol.

A diet I found that could be good is that you get them a bowl of ziwipeak air dried beef cat food, and you serve it when it’s in water also with another water bowl. And like 2-3 times a week feed them raw chicken wings. Is this a good diet or not?

Personally, I think any minors should wait to get ferrets until they’re adults and have steady jobs. Often, parents don’t want to spend hundreds and hundreds on vet bills (plus the long drive to exotic vets), proper nutrition, cages, toys, etc. You need to make 110% sure you have the resources to support the ferret, and not rely on fickle parents (unless they’re ferret owners themselves.) I’m in my mid 20s and have always wanted ferrets, and I’m glad I didn’t get one when I was younger. I got a ferret last week and have already spent over $1,500 on it (vet visit and vaccines included.) ferrets are very prone to illness which will cost hundreds yearly. Just wait!

What kind of treats are best for ferrets? 4. What brand of cages do you recommend? 5.if there’s not any shelters near me is there another option other than a pet store?

i’ve always really liked ferrets and i’ve done lots of research in them like food, cages, toys, environments, exercise, basically all the needs for a ferret. i love everything about them i know what they come with, vet wise etc, but the only place i would be able to but one would be from pet land…they’re all so young there just barley teething, and they are from the big marshall’s pet mill which i don’t like, everything from marshall’s is either super unpredictable or gets sick or unhealthy really easily. i’ve looked for pet shelters near me and everything but where i live there’s not one shelter that sells or regimes healthy ferrets, or just ferrets in general. the shelters where i live only sell cats or dogs, no ferrets, no rodents, no reptiles, nothing like that just cats and dogs. i’ve really been looking around but nothing has them except pet stores, and i preferably don’t want one from there, but it’s quite literally my only option, and i live in a somewhat rural area, so there’s nothing good for miles outside of my county, so i’m not sure what to do. it’s a struggle 😭😭

My ferret has a smallish cage. Yet it is a bit tall at least, it goes to my waist and I want to buy another larger cage, yet I can't afford it yet. The ferret, Chaos, has like a shelf in the cage. I only have one ferret. So I think this cage is large enough for him. It seems comfy for him so I think he likes it. Edit: Oh, the ferret cage picture you showed in the video is the cage I have but a bit wider and taller. It is not a double cage yet I'm going to invest in money to get him a larger cage, thanks!

Orijen's standard dry cat food, when it was still being made exclusively up in Canada, use to be MUCH higher quality (still not the preferable option, which will always be raw) Over the past 3-4 years, Orijen is now mostly just beans, especially the Kentucky stuff, and it can contain some surprisingly large, cooked bone fragments in it as well. Marshall's dry is beyond terrible, and even the highly touted Wysong line isn't so great nowadays. In fact, I can't think of a single dry pet food that is even slightly suitable for ferrets these days. Quality has really hit rock bottom when it comes to dry pet food, and yes, I am VERY aware that associating dry food with the word "quality", is a serious oxymoron. Though I do acknowledge that, due to various circumstances, it's just not possible for some to feed raw, and is not necessarily an indicator of a bad, neglectful ferret owner. So to any future and/or current ferrent, always try to start the process of getting your fuzzies on raw asap is possible, and absolutely heed the tips and advices in this video. They are critically important to being a good ferret owner, and ensuring your cat-snakes stay happy and healthy. - Edited to be less stupid/obnoxious.
