Your videos help a lot I’m getting two ferrets and I watch your videos so I can get help! Thank you so much for making great content and helping people who are new having a ferret as a pet!♥️🙃
Pointer for British people- there may not be many ferret rescues but the RSPCA takes them in so you can rescue from there, just check the nearest branch to you they're everywhere. Adoption fee is £40
- u k i y o a i - I’m getting 2 too! Not sure on the names, but maybe you could help! Female names: Winnie, Storm or meela Male: Bear, Blu, Zeus. I’m thinking Winnie and bear
I decided to wait until i can a job (14+) to get ferrets so i don't need to depend on my mom for money. I really want the best for animals, to care for them very well and for them to have a great life. I already know alot but not enough. I also want to get them from a rescue.
@@tjtomo6160 I'm going to get a ferret too, Sadly we can only Afford to get One. But I'll try my best to Try and Get another one when I can so he won't Be lonely.
A harness like those used for cats and a leash are great for ferrets too. My ferrets loved going outside on their harness and leash. Never use a collar---they can get out of those really easily, and the collar can hurt their neck. Also a soft bristle brush for their coat. Mine loved their grooming sessions. Unscented baby wipes are great to have on hand as well. (Jan Griffiths).
I have 4 babies. The surprise purchase was a good meat cleaver. Pork ribs and chicken thighs are bone-in meals that need chopping down to size. Do not chop meat if your animals are loose or nearby. A hand-held steam cleaner is also worth having. Keep steam away from your babies heads.
See the thing is I might be getting a ferret or two and I’ve been looking ALL OVER the web! And I’ve heard soooo much stuff and have read sooooo much stuff but this is THE ONLY person that I trust because one it sound real and two SHE HAS LIKE 4-5 FERRETS!!! She needs more views and likes and subs and EVERTHING!!!
For feeding how do you determine the amount too feed and when too feed etc? This is the only question I’ve had after doing all my raw food research but I can’t seem too find the answer
alice I feed mine as much as they want to eat, usually a large handful. For example, if I buy a bag of frozen beef chunks I’ll grab a handful and put it into smaller bags then put it in the freezer, simple grab a bag when I need put it in the fridge over night until it’s defrosted then put it into a bowl and feed. I feed them around 3 times in winter and 2 times in summer, morning, midday, and night :) hope this helped I was in the same situation as you when I was doing research
I've read around that ferrets will NOT overeat. They only eat as much as they can handle. They will appear to put on a little bit of chub in the winter, especially in colder climates (it's mostly their thicker fur coat coming in). That's not cause for alarm.
Pluto this is completely true a ferret should always have food because they’re eating schedule is kind of lucid they eat when there hungry and you can never tell when there hungry so you should always have food available for them
@Star Dog this is not to be mean or rude either so don't hate on me too! Dog's are a different animal species and so they will gain weight and digest food differently. (this is not to be mean!)
I love you videos! I feel really bad for my ferrets I feel like I haven’t been giving them their best care. But now thanks to your vids they’re A LOT Happier❤️❤️❤️❤️
i love your channel and how deep you go into the scientific background of kibble ,treats, and ofc the ferrets life and i’m definitely fallowing you .you’re amazing!
Love this video and all the ferret info!! One thing I do have to say - do not use rubbing alcohol or hydrogen peroxide in open wounds. They harm good tissue as well as bad tissue. It's better to use clean water or a mild sterile saline solution
Thank you for all the information about ferrets. I used to have a ferret once and I was heartbroken to find out when I split with my ex he abandoned her. If I would have knew that when I moved I would have took her with me. But now I'm considering to adopt another ferret and your information has been so helpful because I realized even when I was doing my best by our ferret I was still doing a lot of mistakes because of what stores were telling me was the best for my ferret. With your videos I now know that a lot of the information out there is incorrect or out of date for ferrets. Thank you for all you do!
It would be so helpful to know any tricks to convince my mom to get me a ferret 😅 she thinks that they are gross and stinky but I love them so freaking much-
Im just looking for a new future pet and making research for now. I have to say, you are so good, I love your videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
I already have a ferret but I didn't know how to take care of her and I'm getting another one so she isn't lonely this helped me a lot their names are gonna be poppy and violet
I looove you videos they are so helpful I’m planning to get ferrets and I’m doing a lot of research. And ur videos really help with the research. :) ✨💕
Thanks! I removed the cage to save for later because I agree they should have s life like cats cause they are cat snakes they are half cat so yeah lollll anyway thank you you have been added to my ferret playlist! This was very helpful. The cost is as much as the cage was now! Everything I will have when I get the ferret: blanket, carrier, cat bowls from target because I'm getting those from target, cage cleaner, and dawn witch I'm also going to get at target! Sorry this was a bit long I hope you can read but this was helpful! Thank you ❤
For the tooth past do you have a brand you recomend or wich one to choose for your ferrets? I kibble feed them and I didnt know that they needed to be toothbrushes. Thank you so much for that. I love you so so Mich and love all your little ferry babies❤💕💕💕💕💕
The type used for dogs and cats should work fine. I used that type for my ferrets, but they didn't need it much, as they were fed a largely raw diet with bones to gnaw. (Jan Griffiths).
I have a question. We plan on getting a baby from a good breeder. How do you introduce a new ferret baby to our 5 year old girl kitty. She is sweet and never violent. She hides. And can the ferret drink out a low water fountain? Or will the baby need their own water dish without moving water? Thank you in advance!
We have a cat water fountain and they love drinking out of it! As far as animal introductions are concerned, take it s l o w . Only continue interactions as long as they aren't showing signs of distress, and never ever leave them together unsupervised.
The two ferrets I'm interested in, their names are Nomad and Roxanne, (they're 1 hour away..) adoption fees are 75 per ferret, and they only have a bonded pair no one else. So if I get them, they will be 150, a tiny bit pricey but it's okay! The only flaw is that the shelter is far away :( And if I wait for a year to get a ferret(s) their chances of getting adopted are very high (I don't think they'd be there for a year) and if they do, there's no place else to get them unless I go to a pet store..
There will always be more ferrets to adopt! I know it sucks, but if you don't think you will be able to adopt those 2, then you might just have to wait it out. The reason why pet stores aren't suggested is because of the way the ferrets are bred/treated. Most, if not all, are extremely prone to disease and often go unchecked by a vet even if the store claims to have done so. Rescue centres care a lot more about the animals, and will spend the time needed to do vet check ups and sometimes even surgeries/vaccinations for you. I hope this helps you decide!
I got really sad because yesterday we went to petco because my brother wanted to see the animals and there was one ferret alone, it was in dead sleep and they believed he was dead but then he finally moved.
I think I want to feed mine kibbles... but I saw that their diet determines if they stink really bad or not or not. So would kibbles do this? Also I would still give them some raw food but not every day
Well you are lucky. I live in a rental and the land lord said I can have one but it can't live inside but he said I csn bring it in tho and also my mother wont let me keep it inside full time ether so yer. But dont you worry the ferret will be let in my room and maybe around the house and also going to set up a play fence thing for him to have a run around on the grass and what not. Also I have carpet in my room. But anyway moral of the story is that the ferret won't spend all of its life in a cage. But it wont be staying inside like I would want him to. But if there is really bad weather or to hot for him he will come inside no ifs or buts from anyone
Due to pick ferret number 4 🙈 this Saturday, we are rehoming here in the uk you can’t buy them from a shop, we have already bonded one to the business and hoping he will bond too, but if he doesn’t he will have his own big cage to sleep in and then free roam of the front room all day ☺️
My Cousin bought a ferret and after only 2 weeks she dosen't want it anymore. She wanted to just dump it out, so I said I take it and I'm getting as much as information as I can until she comes next week, bought raw foods, huge cage etc but only problem is its only one and I'm scared it will die on me from loneliness ;( I will take it out every day and it will be caged at Night only. Does anyone know if that would work until I get a second one since corona most people don't sell at the moment and I don't what to do :(
I don't think its an immediate issue, only prolonged lonliness and depression will lower the lifespan. Just make sure you spend losts of extra time playing with your ferret until you have the chance to adopt another :)
This help me so much thank you! :) also if you would make a video on ferrets can eat raw and dry Foods in their diet. I’m very confused on it and no other video explains it correctly. Thank you :-) :-) :-)
zalilaX it depends on where you’re getting it from, though. when adopted, ferrets' adoption fee can be around $40-$100 maybe, and when bought at pet stores (which i really, really do not recommend) they’re usually $150-$200.
Idk know if I am getting a puppy or a ferret but my dad looked in to it and my mom want a ferret but she acting like she don’t want lol but this was helpful
if you’re living with your parents and they won’t go to an exotic vet, it’s best to wait until you can pay for it on your own. ferrets definitely should be going to the vet for check ups 💕

I've read around that ferrets will NOT overeat. They only eat as much as they can handle. They will appear to put on a little bit of chub in the winter, especially in colder climates (it's mostly their thicker fur coat coming in). That's not cause for alarm.
A ferret should always have food in there bowl not like a dog where you feed twice a day
Pluto this is completely true a ferret should always have food because they’re eating schedule is kind of lucid they eat when there hungry and you can never tell when there hungry so you should always have food available for them
@Star Dog this is not to be mean or rude either so don't hate on me too! Dog's are a different animal species and so they will gain weight and digest food differently. (this is not to be mean!)

Omfg I’m naming my ferrets Appa and momo cause my childhood ❤️❤️❤️ this video was meant to find me 😂
AVATAR THE LAST AIRBENDER!!!!
I'm going to name mine Lisa Lisa and Jotaro
what about outdoors gadgets like a harness and such?
Harnesses aren't really good for them
I am adopting a ferret from a local pet store but they take the ferrets to the vet and get them from a local ferret rescue i made sure of that
How many times do You feed the ferret
Twice a day :) If you feed kibble you need to leave the food out all day for them.
Bryn Katharine ok thank you

This help me so much thank you! :) also if you would make a video on ferrets can eat raw and dry Foods in their diet. I’m very confused on it and no other video explains it correctly. Thank you :-) :-) :-)
THEYRE CALLED APPA AND MOMO !!!!!!!
I'm getting ferrets soon. And I need to know where to get healthy ferrets.
if you adopt a ferret that isn’t from a pet store will it still need the vaccinations?
OMG in the uk ferrets are only £15-£40 in the uk
This is so helpful I’m getting 2 Ferrats in two months and I wanna be the best owner I can
where did you get your ferrets from?
i live in an area where theres only petcos 😭✌️
me too! i've been looking online for shelters but they're all hours away! well... they have like dog and cat animal shelters but no ferrets :/
I know that this might sound bad to some people but I will not do a raw diet
Her : they won’t be as expensive as a puppy or a kitten
Ferrets price : 75-200
Kittens price: 25
zalilaX it depends on where you’re getting it from, though. when adopted, ferrets' adoption fee can be around $40-$100 maybe, and when bought at pet stores (which i really, really do not recommend) they’re usually $150-$200.
Adopted cats are expensive, god knows why. You can get a kitten off Craigslist for literally $20.
No ferrets are usually 200-400 dollars and kittens are pretty expensive if you go to a shelter or they were rescued
THANK YOU SOSOS MUCH!
Idk know if I am getting a puppy or a ferret but my dad looked in to it and my mom want a ferret but she acting like she don’t want lol but this was helpful
We actually have a local vet that we took my dog to so ill keep that in mind! Also pause at 6:29-
Well a dog veterinarians don't usually know how to take care of ferrets you should go to one that has worked with ferrets
Vaseline for blockage? Also.. No pics of what type of toothpaste??
Will it cost a lot for all this checks?
Jasmine yes it will get check ups are very expensive 😖😖
If you feed them a raw diet do you not need to brush their teeth?
if you get only one ferret is the single ferret nation cage ok?
whats crazy is in the uk ferrets cost from 5£-20£ many many get impulse bought and then thrown away
Would you recommend an air purifier? I've been debating on buying one to help with smell.
ive seen people using pee pads, do you have a recommendation about a litter box vs a pee pad?
It depends on the owner pee pads are just easier
I still live with my parents and I don’t think they will pay for the exotic vet stuff
if you’re living with your parents and they won’t go to an exotic vet, it’s best to wait until you can pay for it on your own. ferrets definitely should be going to the vet for check ups 💕
What if they are a rescue but they are rescued by a good pet store?
usually pet stores don’t rescue their ferrets, they buy them from marshall’s. unless the store has stated they rescued it, it has come from a breeder.
