Everything You Need to Know Before Buying A Ferret 

and he walcc

Oh god she watches gacha-

This guy is a girl who is a guy. “Who is gay?”

@@yourgflikesit its a guy

Hailey Carroll ahh thanks for clearing that up, I thought he was born a girl or something.

yourgflikesit Even if you’re transgender from female to male, it’s quite rude to say oh so he was born a girl. He wasn’t born a girl he was born a boy..

DrawByHeart yeah the last person told me. I get it, I understand the difference between males and females. He was born with a penis. No need to get upset, I just assumed he was a girl previously, as such born a female.

You’re supposed to cut them before you give it to them 🤦🏻‍♀️

Bv Jenner my ferret rips them up lol

Not all are the same 🤷🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♂️

Toilette paper roll is one of my ferret's favorite toys. She just grabs it and scoots backwards. Scoot scoot scoot... No problems.

i'd say if it's supervised it's fine

Be warned about vets bills if you take the ferret on.

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

You can get a permit to keep it, I’m also in California

I thought it’s illegal to buy and sell in California. Not illegal to own one. So buy from a neighboring state.

Lisa Russell well no, you just have to have a permit or else it’s illegal

@@vivybivy I’m pretty sure it has to be a special permit, like if your an animal trainer or something.

@@lisarussell6153 if you own a ferret in California without a special permit, then you can get fined or go to jail for up to 6 months, I’m pretty sure.

shlump mommy good job I’m so happy you adopted your a hero!!! You saved a poor floof

I saved a raccoon oof

It's a male

awh, is there some more to the story?

It is so good that he is ok

No one SAMEEEE🤣💀

Wow.

Lmaoo this me asf I’m still doing research I can’t get one until I move😂

how are they

Keith Jones same me and my mom are probably gonna foster them I have been researching forever and if we find one that I fall in love with we will probably adopt it!

ii3chooii I have a ferret and my ferret eats marshals food, if your ferret starts to eat that food you don't want to switch it because they can get sick and it's not good for them

ii3chooii Omg thank you so much I am getting a ferret soon so this is very good information thank you so much! 😄

ii3chooii A

My ferrets eats Marshall and they are perfectly healthy

caceylol103 msp you should definitely switch food! You can do this by slowly adding more and more of a good food until your ferret gets used to the new food

Same

Kawaii Lola omg I feel so bad for you

Why???

Were do u live

@@tourmii some countries class them as pests 😢😭

I feel so bad

GONEmypurpleflapjack I'll be sure to make some more in the future! They are great pets, I'm sure you will love having one or two! A pair is always best so they can play together and keep each other company when you aren't around.

Anna Buckner thank you for your kind words!! All the best with your new fur babies!!

Also, my ferret isn't fussy and filtered/unfiltered water doesn't effect him at all haha

Adopting is a muchhhh better option!

Ash James depending on where you live, many ferret specific rescues will pay for any fees to bring them to you from neighbouring cities or states! because there’s just so many living in a rescue shelter that deserve a good home ❤️

I literally scour the internet for ferret videos and this is such a great video and you helped me out

and for the smell i know some people just don't like the musky smell they have, but i think you'll agree that anyone who's owned them for any length of time actually quite likes the smell :3

Thank you for the advice

Dylan SeAN hey I heard you have to give a variety of meats to ferrets (like they get sick if you only give one kind?)so I was wondering what exactly you feed them thx for your help

Te3time So here’s the rundown They don’t get sick Ferret usually don’t like you to switch their food so have a good variety of it. Whole prey is the best. Baby chicks, mice and rats. I bring mine hunting too The basics are bones meat organs after that it’s up to what they will consume. Any other questions hit me up Good luck

thank you!!!

Ferrets are notorious biters if neglected, left alone, not given a big enough cage or proper outside time. Bottom line, they are notorious biters of people who have no business keeping ferrets. If you give them a proper cage, diet, exercise time and lots of attention and handling, they're not biters. The #1 thing you can do to stop biting is to give them attention and lots of handling... the more they get used to being handled, the less they will bite... and tell your dad to do some research before he speaks about subjects he doesn't know.

how's your ferret doing?

Mr. Bones that’s great advice! Will take on board when getting an adopted ferret next month :)

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.

Arden Vecchione Courant relax bro, she’s not adopting a new born baby. It’s not all that your making it out to be. The vet every few months?! Lol wtf
