No. Ferrets are obligate carnivores meaning that they can only eat meat or meat based foods. Their body is unable to digest fruit, vegetables, dairy or grains and feeding these to the ferret can cause it to become unwell. If you run out of ferret food maybe try giving the ferret some raw meat or an egg.

∙ 10y agoNo a ferret cannot eat lettuce and probably would not eat it anyway. Ferrets cannot digest any vegetables, cereals, fruits or grain. They are carnivores requiring meat based foods. I you do not have any ferret food, you can substitute a good kitten food (or temporarily cat food)

What are good types of ferret food?
Well, ferrets enjoy raw egg once a week. NEVER use cat food on long term. It is OK as an occasional treat but is NOT RECOMENDED in the long run, because it causes digestive upset and MALNUTRITION. Cat food isn't a complete and balanced diet. It is also very high in carbohydrates and can cause obesity. Ferrets like raw meat because they are carnivores! Be sure you're ready to feed a ferret, it gets costly. _____________________________________________ Good brands high in meat protein: Ferret- 8in1 Ultimate Crunchy, Wysong Ferret Epigen 90, Evo ferret, Dr Foster and Smith, Natural Gold, Zupreem, purina LabDiet Ferret, Kaytee Fiesta MAX
