Interested in gaming? My little brother has a gaming channel! ru-vid.com/show-UCbed28L0F2KQUQmkkLsFGUA he works very hard on it, I'd appreciate it if you subscribed!! :D If you do, comment below so I can give you my thanks!
@@riivlez5586 sorry i’m seeing this 10 months later but i made them a booklet about everything they should know about taking care of ferrets, i gave them a backup plan just incase when we got them something came up and we couldn’t have them anymore, i made sure to save some money to buy most things and them help me out with the rest
My two ferrets took 3 months to fully trust and love me. They would bite, not really wanting to leave the cage, let them free roam but they ran right back up. Didn’t have any issues in litter training or the switch from Marshall foods to raw diet. After I had finished that switch they were just goofballs! Showing me that they loved me coming up for cuddles, leaving the cage to free roam! Just everything little noodles should be doing! It takes time! And effort’ but it’s totally worth it in the end!
I'm getting ferrets next year after I visit my boyfriend in Italy. Gives me plenty of time to make sure I can afford everything. :> I wanted to get them sooner but it would be best to wait till after my trip to Italy for multiple reasons. Thank you so much for your videos, you're the only person online that had accurate and trustworthy information. 💜
This video has got me thinking even more and i have made my mind i will not be getting my ferrets until i can im what is considered a child or pre teen and im not in highschool yet so im gonna wait till after design school and till i get my own house whith my own rules and my own job that can get tons of money so my ferrets can get a luxury life style! Im sad that i wont get them soon but ill get them eventually i just think its the most responsible thing i can do do you agree?
This kind of thinking proves that you will take great care of them when you have them! You should be incredibly proud of yourself for doing the research and making the decisions required to ensure your pets live the best lives they can!
Alyssa Pavlik as long as the owner spends at least 5 or 6 hours with the ferret a day, they should be fine :) they are social animals so if you have less time on your hands, it’s best to get more than one.
I was bubbly and friendly but then one day, the pandemic started. After awhile I got super depressed and here we are now. Yesterday I sort of lashed out and had this SUPER long conversation with my mom on appreciation. Then SOMEHOW we got to pets and she brought up that her and my dad were thinking of getting me a pet. I wanted a chinchilla, but then she brought up a ferret. I saw a video of ferrets messing around and fell in love. So I guess now I'm getting a ferret and have been studying them here legitimately all day. So thank you so much for this information!
Hey Pazuandfriends, I would just like you to know a I think most people would say the say thank you for all of the tips with ferrets and cute videos on your channel we love your videos and hope you can grow a make your yt channel even better than it is. You probably won’t see this but thank you
i have learned all of my knowledge on ferrets from you! i’m getting a ferret tomorrow his name is ferris and we are getting him from a rescue! thank you for helping me with everything i know!
I love your channel your videos are so informative with all the information I have now I finally convinced my mom to get me my ferret on Christmas this year 😀
I have wanted ferrets for years and have done years worth of research on them , I finally had the guts to ask if I can buy them and I was told I’m not allowed I have never gotten so upset that quickly 🥺
That's a good thing... that means your parents aren't either willing or able to take care of all the ferrets needs for the life of the ferret (many years), and that's the responsible thing to do. I'm a parent of two teenagers... and yes, we have ferrets in the house... but only because i'm willing, able and happy to take care of the ferrets if/when my children aren't able to, and that includes when they run off to college while the ferrets are still around... I will be there for the ferrets even if my children are off becoming adults and establishing their new lives. My advice? Don't rush it. You'll be 18 soon enough and able to make your own decisions on what you are or aren't "allowed" to have... you may find out that the responsibility of having a job, going to college, hanging out with friends would either leave too little time for your ferrets and/or not enough care for them... or perhaps you would be there for your ferrets at the cost of your own time/job/school/social life. Ferrets are a big time/money sink to be cared for to their needs. I'm sure you'll be a great ferret parent some day, that time will come... but as this channel states, ultimately, it's the parent, not the child that ends up being responsible in the end... and if your parents aren't on the same page as you, then it's just best for you to wait till you're an adult and you can make that call yourself... you may end up realizing your parents made the right decision after all! Best of luck, you'll get some ferrets some day I'm sure! P.S. I'm very liberal with what pets my kids can have, because I love animals and i'm always willing to take care of every pet under our roof 100%... but my daughter isn't allowed to have a snake, even though she really wants one... not because I don't like snakes... I think snakes are cool... but snakes need "raw feeding"... and by raw feeding, that means live mice... NOPE... i'd feel too guilty feeding the poor little guys to a snake... I told my daughter she can have all the snakes in the world she wants after she's 18, but don't ever ask dad to feed them for her!
@@wolfshanze5980 My mom said I could have a bunny because I researched about them and showed her that I would take care of them, my mom doesn't have a problem with them because she takes care of our bird and my sisters cat all the time. But she hasn't got me it yet though. And I don't want to ask her again and again when are we going to get one, because it may annoy her and make her change her mind. What should I do then (Since your a grown-up,you might know).
I am so glad I might be able to get ferrets I am 11 and I have done my research and well continue and I am starting my business soon also I fully understand what to do and what not to do with your ferrets
5:33 - I am 11 years old I have 1 ferret 2 turtles,2 hamsters 1dog and 1cat they all stay in my room but the ferret gets a dig box and a big playpen my ferret gets a good bit of raw food I pay for all they’re food and change her bedding once a week I do all my research and a clean a house Tuesdays and thursdays for 40$ and I keep money apart for my ferret and my hamsters clean they’re cage out twice a week because they don’t like it and turtles both baby’s they’re cage gets cleaned out about once every 2 weeks( the dog and cat do NOT live in my bedroom both up outside)
I impulse bought a ferret 6 months ago and couldnt get rid of it... Thank God I didn't I now have 3 and I'm so in love. Your videos help thank you so much❤.
I agree with you with you on the pet store employers cause i went to go check on the ferrets and the live horrible and i was politly telling them about them being harmed and they started laughing at me
I ALWAYS have a vet fund . It gets harder to add money to my vet account but I also KNOW how FAST any exotic pet needs care and vet bills . It happens so darn FAST . I don't have 1000 per ferret but I also work . My vet goal is 500 on my vet card ALWAYS
I am 12 and have a crested gecko and have researched a lot on all of my animals and am thinking about getting a couple ferrets also some kid can take care of animals and 10 and up can keep a ferret
I’m in 6th grade well moving into this year and I have a best friend who comes over all the time and we both did research so we could talk about it and help me and when I go to her house(I don’t go often maybe ones every couple of months)my brother knows the schedule what to do how long to have them out when to feed(I feed raw) changing the litter and my parents have a great job with good pay and my mother has listened to the research so we have 5,000 saved for ferret surgeries and we have already bought a abundance of ferret supplies
Love you're video's and spot on. In uk luckily have ferret insurance and my vets has healthcare plan. Takes a huge load off my mind but will still be saving up for all my ferrets.Feel awful having to keep ferrets in cage but atm i have to get ferret proofing in place on my banister then they can free roam which is great.I still give them as much cage free time least 6 hours.You're video's have helped me alot saved me making some mistakes with the vitamins,kibble etc unfortunately get told kibble good for teeth.With you're help have got raw them on raw.Also definitely have first aid in place before getting a ferret can be a life saver.
in the uk ferrets are considered farm animals still for the most part so it's hard to find good kibble brands, I heard Lilys Kitchen kitten food is good but I'm not sure
Kids can be responsible for small animals I'm 11 and I have 2 Bunny's I have worked out there food diet and do every thing for them I feed them I give them water hey and change there liter, my parents have never touched them and if they have it was to put them away I buy there toys I tell my parents what to buy for there food so think before you speak. Thank you!
This was a great guide and stuff I just feel like there was nothing as positive that you said about ferrets… so one thing I would recommend is to notice that not only adults are watching but Children as well. It can depend on the situation of the depending responsibility for the animal. It mostly depends on the parents choice of direction towards the child. If a child grew up on a farm, they would most likely know how to take care of a ferret, but if one grew up with no expectations, they would most likely not be responsible for care of the ferret. Overall, please next time just try to be a bit more aware of the people who may be watching, other than that it was a good guide. I wasn’t trying to cause any drama I would just like to let you know what I thought. So please no hurt feelings!
-and you may find your baby with a mauled face 🤩🥰🙈❗️✨ you musnt forget that ferrets are extremely strong and babies are extremely annoying. ferrets dont know how to talk so they will not hesitate to use their teeth if they feel uncomfortable.
I need more information on my researching so you uploading this right now is awesome! ^_^ I'm thinking about wantiing to adopt Roxanne and Nomad a bonded pair of ferrets I want (only ones available and better yet they're super adorable!) But if I don't get them or can't I'll have to buy one from a pet store, I really don't have the need to though And I'm planning on having them free roam the house while I'm away downstairs with a play pen (big one) I'll have tons of old blankets, bed covers, pillows there with some toys for them they can play with! Is that okay?
Maybe try the pillows purse just to make sure they don’t rip the pillows up bc they can swallow the stuff inside the pillow ☺️ congrats otherwise and I hope you don’t have to by from a pet store
It’s good that you said this, I also wanted to say that there is this girl who got a ferret and wasn’t getting the cage for 3 days, so she used a cardboard box 😧
I’m getting a ferret next week!! I’ve watched basically ALL of your videos 😆 my mom is considering getting another one when the school year starts but hopefully I can!!
I have been wanting a ferret for a year now and I have been watching your videos every since and August 3 I finally get one her name is jinx and I have subscribed to your brothers channel
Cant agree with the money thing enough, With the 3 of my guys who got sick in the last couple of months, Ive spent very close to 5 grand, 1000 for an adrenal surgery, more for hospitalization for one I ended up losing in the end anyway, and a ton of money helping one of my elder ferrets through insulinoma and over the rainbow bridge. Quality kibbles are very pricey, around 25-30 dollars a pound, I figure now switching to raw I will actually be spending a little less on food once I have my initial stock pile finished, but as most ferrets are kibble fed, if you want quality kibble that wont be as detrimental to their health you will pay through the nose. Ive since adopted 3 since the passing of my other 2 putting my total up to 5 and I try at all times to have at least 1500 dollars set aside for every one of them. I have a great vet that knows how much they mean to me and is always giving me discounts, he gave me almost 200 dollars off of a 2 day hospitalization putting the total down to 350 from 550, but throughout the whole process I ended up spending well over a grand and still losing my little guy in the end. So it should be known that even spending thousands doesnt necessarily mean you will be able to save your ferret but doing nothing or not being able to afford emergency care when its needed then you will 100% lose your ferret. I have a very good exotics vet 2 minutes from my house who genuinely cares for the animals that come to see him so much so I have his personal cell number and he told me I could text or call him anytime day or night with any questions or concerns and for weekend emergencies when my main vet is closed, although an hour away I have an excellent emergency hospital that if need be I could step on it and make it there in around 40 minutes or less, Ill gladly take a speeding ticket to save my animals if I have too. These little guys are awesome but delicate, and proper research is so very beneficial to their well being. So glad that you guys started this channel, I feel the information you provide is going to be helping ferrets across the country! Ive owned ferrets coming up on 8 years and they are the best little pets out there, I guess maybe for me they are a necessity because I cant imagine life without them lol.
Hello! I have two ferrets, Juno and Miska. I have been wanting to get them some new toys, or structures for them. I was wondering if you had any suggestions for what I should be getting them? Thank you so much! also, I love your videos so much!! :D
She shows some recommendations in her watch ferrets play videos, general ferret care videos, and in some other videos too! I think generally she said not to use plush toys if your ferrets rip things/not at all, I've seen her recommend dryer tubes from hardware stores for them to crawl through and a tub/container of non instant dry rice to play in! But she recommends some in other videos too :)
I'm highschool age but i dropped out due to stress and now only work two to three days a week for 3 to 5 hours then the rest of the time I'm home I'm going be getting ferrets for emotional support and I'm most definitely doing raw I'll be getting a mini fridge/freezer and I'm 100% financially covering them but my parents will help with vet bills if i need them too and I'll be semi rescueing my ferrets I'm giveing two lovely girls (sisters) a new home and I'm going to do a complete re vamp of my room to make sure my pretty small room is a nice place for them to play so I'm hopeing I'll be a good ferret dad being a introvert I'm home alot and because I've had cats my whole life so nips and scratches dont bother me haha
That's similar to me! I have stress seizures and was unable to go to school and got ferrets for emotional support. I've had them for about a year now so if you have any questions I'm happy to answer!
had rats for years , they only live 2/ 3 years at a push its heart braking , had a hob as a kid free roam in my mums house many many years ago , now am in my own place , my current rats are getting to that age and am looking at ferrets again , been doing lots of research over the year and i think am ready , i live alone and moved away from my hometown so no one visits me so smells not a issue rats have a smell to am not bothered i keep them clean and have a air purifier , rats also are considered exotics , recently dropped £240 on one boy that had cancer on the spleen for operations etc
I'm considering getting ferrets in the future. I have always wanted ferrets. I first want to research and at the moment I have 2 rats left. I loved having rats but there life spans are to short and there not too costly until the vets because there exotic for one and there sensitive to tumers and respotory problems plus other random things that's happened while I've had rats. It's surgerys constant when old paying to get put down and cremated. I give them the best care and the best diet and I let them out to freedom more then in there cage but it's always left open. There so fun but going to a vet at least every 6 months from couple hundred to thousand dollar bill is crazy. Makes me sad though cause I love having rats so much but seem to have bad luck I never even had one die of old age yet. One had aomething wrong out of my control and the vets the second one either got injured from the other rat or cut during playing. The vet thinks one other rats possibly did it but idk if I believe it but can't say for sure. I got 2 left one almost year old on Christmas and one over a year old. I can't decide what to do. I hate giving up on rats but I'm always losing them plus it's alot expense for a animal that don't live long even if they fid live a full life.
Sorry I was texting fast lol but I really wish rats lived longer or I had better luck with them cause I'm not aloud dogs and I love these Lil shits so damn much.
I'm not sure whether to get rats or ferrets. I have had rats before but never ferrets. I know that ferrets are a lot more hyper so that's one reason why I'm leaning more towards rats but idk
I was thinking of getting a ferret but watching this video I realised, I may not be ready to take on this responsibility yet. As I have had a hamster before, I will get a hamster instead and wait for a ferret!
I usto have a ferret sadly I went of vacation for the summer to visit my family in another state and my mom was moving from our apartment and my ferret ran away, I started to research a lot more to educate myself!! I might be getting one soon 😊

i've been wanting a ferret for around 1½ years and done LOTS of research but im really not sure if im responsible enough for them to get a good life and/or i dont know how to confirm if im right for a ferret
I’m getting a ferret and I’ve been wanting one for so long they are so cute and I have been watching so many videos and we have a cage picked and some toys and blankets and hammocks ❤❤❤
Yes you can. I rotate the old kibbles & turn it into a smoothie mixture in a blender. Mix in some ground chicken, turkey. They also have kibbles, Nature's Variety Instinct, whenever I'm sleeping or at work.
Price of pet store ferrets which I do not advocate for, adopt or get from a reputable breeder, is around 200 dollars, exotic vet visits run about 140 a pop, emergency surgeries range from 1000-5000 dollars, quality food depending on the amount of ferrets owned runs between 80-160 dollars a month, a good breeder ferret runs between 500-1200 dollars and most ferret rescues have a 75 dollar per ferret adoption fee. And any ferret you get from a pet store or a shelter will need an immediate wellness and fecal check running about 300 dollars, breeder ferrets you are generally safe from parasites and other issues because they are all properly vetted before they are sold. Keep in mind buying a pet store ferret allows inhumane mills to keep producing them and selling them to labs, and to owners with tons of health issues. Then a good cage will run around 250, although they should be out of the cage for most of the day, plus blankets and hammocks, enrichment items. To sum it all up ownership of a new ferret is going to run around 2 thousand for proper startup.
@@Operator_Viking Where I live it is not allowed to buy ferrets from a petstore. You have to consult a breeder. Where I buy the ferret from, they cost $ 420. Then they are health checked, chipped and vaccinated. My real question was how much they cost a month, like food and such.
@@lycanthrope4242 no, because people need to be educated. it's not spamming, either. i'm sick of seeing people only have one ferret and put them through that.
@@alyssapavlik2521 it actually is spamming, you are repeating the same message over and over again on different videos (i have seen you) and on multiple comments. stop spamming.
Hey, would you consider it fair if they stay in their cage during school hours, but being let out before attending school and straight back from school without hanging out with friends
I love ur videos I’ve been watching u since 2020 I’ve been planning on getting a ferret for so long and I’ve been doing research for years but my parents are the issue they don’t allow me
hello! I love your channel, I watch your videos everyday! I was also wondering, my mom is allowing me to get a ferret, but my dad does not want one. I am just wondering how to convince him?
And then theres me in the corner being a responsible kid who has the skill to take care of a snail and a hamster sadly the hamster died of old age but you get what me is saying
Okay so first of all I wanted to say a huge tank thank you for for being such a great influence her and I've always wanted a favorite like always when I die. I just always thought they're so cute and awesome and I always have hamsters and snails and those were my only pets I didn't have any other pets and then I saw a fair and I was like oh my God it's so cute but I I'm already when I wanted them I was 10 years old so I just didn't think much of it I asked my dad for a ferret and he said no because it's too much of a hassle so I went on the internet and I found your channel telling how much and like how much it takes to take care of hair properly and that kind of made me not want to favorite but I never saw how hard it is to feed them and you didn't make a video that I actually understood with you telling how to feed your ferret like where do you get your food like is it from a special Market or like is chicken okay is like rabbit okay is a duck okay like you know what I mean like you never said what exactly is good for your hair and what's not also if you feed them raw then like I would really like to see how you prep their meals you know and how many times a day you have to feed your ferrets I would just really really like to know how do you do that so if you please can make a video dedicated to a whole week of you feeding your ferrets and how does dermal look and like you don't have to necessarily tell where do you get your meals from where do you get your meat from just please tell what an animal is this what part is it and is like a market one good or no also I Love you
Im gonna be a ferret owner and I think I do too much research even thought I'm a Kid I think im really responsable for my age and I know the things that you shouldn't be giving a ferret ,don't give your ferret water bottles they should have a bole, wisk a egg and give it to the ferret Instead of giving it past its Bad for them and I know much more....
hey! I am younger but I have been studying and still am your channel helps me so much. and I have been studying for more than 6 months and I am starting a youtube channel to help pay for them and vlog with them I was wondering if you could give me tips on what to get to film and some tips to grow my account?
@@veronicam4662 when did they disclose their age ?? they just said that they are younger which can be important to know when deciding whether or not to own a ferret
I am a 13 year old boy I will not be playing high school sports and I have money saved up and I will be getting a day time summer job at 14 do You think a ferret would be a good idea and I have 2 cats and 2 dogs But I have a big room and I would let them free roam and have the door closed an ferret proof do you think a ferret would be a good idea
can i let my ferret just play in regular water without anthing in it. he loves to play in the water. if so how many times would you reccomed? and is the rice digger safe? im worried they might eat it? pls lmk. im a 1st time ferret parent
