Products I used for my ferrets.

I had four ferrets whom lived 7–8 wonderful years, and these are the products I personally used and recommend. They made a real difference in both my ferrets’ lives and mine.

I had two of these for my business of 4. I bought them separately along side a third cage for on-top. I attached them with strong zip-ties. The cut ends of the zip-ties must be away from ferrets. Second pic shows what it looked like.

Products I would have purchased if could at the time.

When I had ferrets, I often made their bedding, tunnels, and toys myself, but I definitely bought things too! If items like these had been available back then, I probably would’ve snatched them up in a heartbeat. Sometimes, it’s just easier (and more...

This looks similar to the cage I bought but more aesthetic. This would be ok for 2 ferrets , if you have more I would purchase another.

I loved buying my ferrets all sorts of soft toys. They like to hide them and play with them. Never buy anything that has rubber. They will cause intestinal blockage and possibly kill your ferret. NO rubber toys please for their safety.

I suggest a heavy ceramic cat or dog bowl to leave dry food readily available for ferrets. They have high metabolisms.

I gave my ferrets water in heavy ceramic bowls. It was better for them than water bottles. You change out to fresh each day and the love the easy access to it.

I had a plastic kennel to transport my ferrets , but I like how you can secure this with a seatbelt unlike the normal plastic transport unit. Keeping pets secure on the chair. I would see how you can secure the zipper .

So I would be very attentive about the squeaker in the toy, but these are too cute to pass up. If anything the squeaker can be dissected. Please be cautious about anything plastic.
