It's essential for ferrets to have water at all time for drinking,

As for bathing, some ferrets like water, some don't.

Some like to play in the water, I like to provide mine with a bowl or container they can splash around in.

if you start leting ferrets swim at about 6-36 months old then they'll start to get more and more ok with it, but for the water make sure that the water is just as low as its hip just in case

Ferrets need to have fresh water available at all times to have plenty to drink.

Advice from another contributor:

You don't need to worry about how much water you need to give them, just get a normal Ferret water bowl from a pet store and just fill that up and leave it up to them how much they'll/the ferret have/has of it. If you're asking this because you're Ferret is having lots more or less than a normal Ferret has of water then you should ask your doctor if anything's wrong in it's next check-up.

Some ferrets like water, some don't. Ferrets wouldn't like ponds to swim in, they tire too quickly and might drown

Ferret are allowed in water, in fact some ferrets like to play in the water. Make sure the water is shallow, as they tire easily if they have to swim.

Ferrets can swim, but not all of them like water and they can tire very easily. Ferrets are not aquatic animals like minks.
