Was a ferret owner from 1986 to 2018. Best pets ever.
Sure they are
Decided to get one as soon as I get the money together. I'm so excited
@@Derpinurfacegoodluck!!!
I miss having ferrets. U will never be in a bad mood with a ferret around!!
I had a little sable girl from 2003-2009. Her name was Liberty Belle or Libby for short. She was treated like a princess with the run of my house and made the greatest pet when living on my own for the first time. Every year, I would take her into work to visit the kids in my class and teach them about ferrets. They aren’t common pets in Australia. She had a large bird aviary that was converted into a 3-storey palace. My only regret was not having a second ferret.
The best bean-footed friend you'll ever need.
I had a male and female. They were in their huge cage while I was at work but had free run of the house when I was home. Funniest animals I’ve ever had.
Little beasts ^^
They are long and fluffy and cute and smart, and when I'm gonna move out and live by myself, I'm definitely gonna get a bunch to keep me company. They seem like the kind of pet that will never let you feel lonely and bored, snooping around and playing with your hard earned possessions :3
As a ferret owner I’m surprised how accurate the facts are in this video, I was expecting it to be some video with little to no research. This is great considering that many people don’t do research on ferrets and end up harming their by pet stores giving them harmful products. Thank you.
Thank you for the nice comment! Hope you will like our other video's ❤
very true i read a comment about someone talking about how their ferret is quiet and pants, they went on to say it’s bc they only have 1 because where they live isn’t “ready” for 2 and after reading that my heart was broken poor baby is most likely depressed bc someone was selfish enough to only get 1 ferret that has no issues being with other ferrets all bc they wanted a pet and care only about themselves and not the well being of the ferret if you don’t have an area ready for 2 than why half ass it and only get 1 when they literally HAVE to be with another if they have no issues, if they wanted one they should’ve gotten one that has issues being around other ferrets such as the one i have she violently attacks any other ferrets so she has to be alone and she’s completely happy and content and does nothing that the person was talking about theirs doing like you can’t just do that it’s not like only sometimes normal ferrets are good to be alone no matter what unless they have issues they have to have a companion i left a very upset comment after reading that bc i’m a single ferret owner for good reason so seeing someone purposely neglecting what should be done while having a ferret in your care broke my heart
Used to have ferrets they would seal everything, once found a pair of pliers in are couch
I own four ferrets and all these facts mostly fit what they do normally
I miss having mine. They were all spastic carpet noodles, but each had their own personality. I can't have any where I live, but really would love having two again.
In my next life I want to be a ferret
Where are my socks and my shoes? Mmmm seems something or someone has stole my "footwear" and im not happy about going shoeless to my job... mmm what a dilemma 😂
I love ferrets! I always wanted one as a pet.
Yeah ferrets look so cute and furry!
I have one
don’t get only one unless you get one that has issues with other ferrets and has to be alone and do extensive research no such thing as doing too much research don’t ruin something else’s life due to not researching how to truly make them happy and take good care of them but best of luck if you do get ferrets
❤❤❤
ferrets are so cute!
I've had 9 ferrets over 30 years, never owned a cage, I walk one every night 8-10 blocks and I even take him to the bars with me.
Wow that sound so cool! Did the ferrets just sleep in your living room or did they have their own space?
Hope you want to share some stories! 💖
Ferrets are: friendly cracked out cats that had their body stretched out with a bad klepto habit.
far from cats they’re way more emotional more human like (according to science) need socializing way more actually cats don’t truly need any, they are completely carnivorous, they have many different noises that sound all differently or some similar they sleep way more, they’re way more curious, they’re truly one of a kind and absolutely nothing like a cat not even a tiny bit other than the fact they’re a pet and can be male or female, idk where ur getting comparing them to cats from there’s no logic in ur comment at all they’re literally just ferrets idk why you’re saying they’re like something else that they actually aren’t anything like 💀 yea bro imma use ur logic, dogs are: friendly gorillas with tales and slightly smaller. like ferrets are ferrets and saying they’re like a cat or any other animal is dumb and makes no sense like what went thru ur head that made you infer they’re cats but with some slight differences i’m embarrassed for you

glad you find blatant ignorance funny, it’s just hilarious ha ha 😐
@@nickdemarino5391 again lol.
@@Yoruichi__Shihouin grow up bruh
Ferrets get bored very easily. Their cage should be kept opened so they can have free range room. This causes them less stress and therefore less smell.
not everyone is capable of doing this that is why if you can’t you get them a very big and nice cage but if you can don’t cage them at all i don’t cage mine at all
I adore ferretssss

I love ferrets. Great show.
✌♥️🇬🇧
First encountered them in the mid-late nineties. Little varmint zoomed up my trousers leg. I’m guessing it was curious.
It tickled!
I’ve liked them ever since!
😍
Never had a cage for my ferrets. Always free roam 24/7. I just block off any openings in walls, cabinets, behind fridge, stove, or anything dangerous to them with cardboard & duct tape. You just have to be mindful of their presence & don't just absentmindedly do something, like extending the lazy boy chair. Never had any accidents with them free roaming. People are NOT mindful, hence accidents with ferrets.
Did you have them potty train to go to the bathroom on a pad?
@@ambitiousbeauty1013 I have pads around my apartment in every room. Some are smart & learn if you scold them. Others are dumb & will just go anywhere in the corner. Blocking off the undesirable corners with things doesn't seem to work, as they just poop over the objects or around it. But for the most part, they're pretty much trained.
@@DecrepitBidennah you can train all of them just some are easier and others you need to just stay persistent and don’t give up eventually they’ll learn but i also do exactly the same thing except i don’t leave mg bedroom door open at all times she knows my room is her room and where she has to sleep when she’s done playing or exploring she knows to go back to my room and the doors closed at night i also only have one due to her not being able to be around any other ferrets bc she violently attacks them so she’s extremely happy and gets spoiled rotten and is way more healthy than she was at the place i got her from she was saved from a farm that kept her locked up for years with her brother and tested on them and her brother passed when the rescue saved them from the farm and the rescue was never able to bond her to another ferret bc she hurts them too bad and the rescue kept her locked up too but when i went to the rescue to get her the women gave me her for free due to feeling bad and being happy she found a home bc she had been returned to the rescue once by someone who wanted her before me but had issues bc they didn’t believe she actually hurts other ferrets so i can’t bring my self to even try a cage and you can tell the difference in when she first came and was used to a cage vs now when she has an entire apartment to herself i’ve read comments of ppl getting one ferret that has no issues and is incredibly sad bc they will become depressed if you do that, unless they have to be alone people should always get them a companion it hurts my heart that ppl are so selfish they just want a pet but won’t put in the research or care it takes to have a ferret
Lol they remind me of more complicated cats. And i love them
they’re absolutely nothing like cats, that’s like saying gorillas are like more complicated dogs, there’s no comparison between the 2 especially when you have to literally point out the difference prior to saying what animal you think they’re similar to, in actuality they’re just ferrets but if you wanna compare than they’re more complicated weasels or smaller north american otters that don’t live in the water, you legit made a comment that makes no sense and has absolutely no logic
@@nickdemarino5391 o FOR FUCK SAKE, GO FIND A HOBBY OR SOMETHING.
You are such a good editor
Best pets ever :) you just have to be a clean freak with their blankets and poop, if you are the smell stays away (for the most part)
im getting a ferret on the 24th now🥵
They're awesome pets. Especially love the Sable and albino ones.
My girlfriend has a albino female. She calls it Monkey!!
sable is the most common lol you should look up a cinnamon or solid black those are the 2 rarest but albino and dews are also kinda rare but the first 2 i named look so unique you’ll want one of them if my baby wasn’t violent with other ferrets and have to be by herself i would get one of the super rare ones but i wouldn’t want the rare one to bond with my baby than her not care and attack them like she would any other ferret
Long-bois ❤
Slide the Ferret!
Your videos are great! Keep it up please 😘
Thank you so much! ❤❤
I have a sable ferret:)
I've been adopting ferrets for 30 yrs. I have NEVER caged them. They like to sleep in my dresser. A group of ferrets are called a "court".
if you feed raw they only have to eat twice a day
Me: can I have a business
Parents: yeah definitely,why not
Me: promise you will help, I will share
Parents: yeah
Me comes back with a group of ferrets😂
🤣🤣
What did your parents say?
Que hermoso 🙃 😊 😚 😘 🥰 😍 🦦 🦦 🌟 🌟 🌟 🙃
Nice facts, but the part of the scent is matter of opinion if it's bad to smell. I've had friends that the scent was overpowering in their homes
Thanks for the video because I thought they were bad temper pets
They can bite but usually when they are handled the right way a lot then they won't. They can be really loving
"keep soft bedding (...)", shows tiles....
페럿...족제비~~
사랑스럽죠오
They are! ❤❤
Sai?
Bro Iam big fan of you nice video
I found a ferret yesterday. She's a girl . I haven't named her but i already live her
P
They are so cute o my GODDDDDD CUTE
I've adopted ferrets for 30 yrs. and not ONCE have I ever caged them.
Mine are like tiny drunk people whos main goal in life is to trip me on the stairs.
But you forgot one very important thing, vets. There are not many veterinarians available in your area that care for ferrets.
this is true. most will say they can treat ferrets but dont actually have any knowledge of ferrets. ferrets HAVE to be taken to exotic vets for the best. there are few normal vets with that one doctor that knows how to treat them though
Nice video
Imagine not loving ferrets
I would never hate them
@@leahanimals6143 I have a friend who finds them wierd cause theyre slinky
What a sad life
Those things stink. I went in somebody's house ,and almost threw up. Not a house pet.
@@speedineed5327 it depends on how you take care of them
Terminology : Ferret word come from furtivity like "furEtivity"
I have a black footed couple. Havic (male) and Mayhem (female) they love to steal my socks. They also go into my cabinet in my kitchen and steal food to hide
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
I love dogs. I love cars. But ferrets…next level pets. We don’t deserve these beautiful, fun, thieving, ridiculous creatures.
Please do your research cause yes they are cute and fun...but diet is important and vet care is key..very expensive and hard to find good exotic vets..but hey I have four and can't imagine my life without them ❤
Great info!! You didn't say how much a vet bill can be... Many years ago wife got a pet care credit card for the inevitable...
Oh wow!
Yep. Was a ferret owner from 1986 to 2018. Those vet bills can be brutal.
great video! I love ferrets so much, I hope to get one soon
Ok... so what was the critter in the movie (I still have vhs tape and cover) rikki tikki tavvi?
Mongoose

Mine spend. 0 hours in cages.
Thank you this kept me from going through wit h it
Glad I could help
How long did yours live mine was 8 years
I got another fact about ferrets:
Draco malfoy is a ferret...a cute blonde one
I once farted closeby to my ferret and she thought it was a good idea to fart back. It was early in her adoption so I nearly died from the smell.
Hahah 🤣🤣😂😂
Has anyone tried feeding them molly fish
It worries me that people see these videos and.. "Oh they're so cute I want one" then my wife and I are out rescuing furries from people who haven't a clue and get all upset 'cus they get nipped while their ferrets are playing
a white ferret walked into my yard and stayed with me a few days. it was like having a two year old the mischief it got into. so funny like a cat/dog
the dont eat constantly
You want to know why I watched this video so I can subscribe to you and also watch about Fair because my sister's room and I make it fair for Christmas also I made TH-cam too TH-camr too but I don't really have a lot of videos
Can we keep ferrets as pets in India Please comment.
I want one so bad 😫😫😫😫
The cheapest type of ferret is 300 dollars and it's also really expensive to take care of one.
@@potatosauce12 which "type" of ferret is $300... what "type" costs more? Ferrets don't come in types, a ferret is a ferret. Pricing is 100% up to the seller... i've seen (and purchased) ferrets for as little as $150, and as much as $450... you can also adopt a ferret for far less at a local ferret shelter. Having said that, the price of the ferret is the cheapest part of owning a ferret... paying for a proper diet (not kibble), caging, toys, ferret proofing and vet bills is where the expense comes from, and yes, owning a ferret is generally more expensive than owning a dog or cat. But a very rewarding experience.
The black footed ferrets are only America wild ferrets
Grains make them shed.
I used to have a ferret but it died WARNING you must feel pain by there teeth before them likeing you
>2024
>Imagine not having ferrets
that cage is sooo small
Can I only feed it egg?
No ferrets should only have 1egg per ferret once a week. They are obligate carnivores and need meat no grains or vegetables. Cat food is not the best for them and dog food is absolutely no good at all for them. Fresh meat is the best and will help your ferret live longer nd small uncooked bones like chicken wings are needed to keep their teeth clean and healthy. Eggs are good for helping them get rid of fur out of their gut and intestines.
Stephanie pretty much nailed it on nutrition... a raw diet is best, supplemented with an occasional egg... there are, however other viable alternatives as not everyone can do a pure raw diet. You can use Freeze Dried Raw (and/or Air Dried Raw) commercial products, as they are something inbetween raw and kibble diets... not quite as good as natural raw, but far better than kibble and about as easy to feed as kibble, it's a good alternative if you can't do a raw diet for whatever reason (look for "cat food" freeze dried raw, like Ziwi Peak or Stella and Chewey's).
I have an pet agouti
Wow, does it live in your house or outside?
The Latin name literally translates to "Stinky Little thief"
hahaha thank you
Ferrets are crepuscular which means that they wake up right before dawn and dusk
Thanks for the extra info! ❤
Ferret like a cat/dog
so much energy
full of business
searching everywhere
jills, hobs, kits too
i can see you
and I'm coming soon
hide the remote
crawl into a hole
better go ferret proof
maybe nothing you can do
they will get out
search the whole house
eat all day long
sleep like dead dogs
wake up to play
put up you're dukes
wrestle to the ground
I have made you
and this whole zoo
time to graduate
get a new place
to live forever in
oh this is sweet a song calling ferrets from Jesus
ahhhhhh marshalls is soooo bad
Ferrets in Latin is ferar meaning fearless one. These people should do their homework.
And what American Labs do to these precious babes is disgusting.
i think i'd rather get a Cat
SMALL CAGES ARE BAD
you shouldnt bath them
Bathing just makes them stink more and they clean themselves. I haven't washed my ferrets since they were very young.
You only bathe a ferret if they get into something particuarly nasty/filthy... otherwise, they should be given a bath about as often as you bathe your common house cat (ie: never).
@@wolfshanze5980 we used to bathe our cats and they loved it, also (as said) some ferrets like the water so we bathe them maybe once every couple of months and moisturise them afterwards
descenting is veryyyyyyyyyyyyyy useless
Descenting is a nasty thing to do. Thank god its an unnecessary and vets in Australia won't do it.
