ferrets do need their whiskers. the whiskers help judge if they can fit in a small space or if they can't. if they don't have whiskers then it will be very dangerousbecause they will squeeze into too small spaces, possibly suffocating them.

p.s. you spelled ferrets wrong its f-e-r-r-e-t-snot faretts. :)

No. There is no need to cut your ferrets fur. Ferrets molt (shed their old coat and grow a new one) twice a year. If your ferret is molting a lot and leaving hair everywhere try brushing him / her with a soft bristled brush.

All animals with whiskers have them for a reason and they serve a purpose to assist them in the dark. I suppose a ferret could do without whiskers.
