According the the website Swheat Scoop® their product called Small Animal Litter is made for ferrets, birds, and other animals and is natural wheat litter that is so safe that the granules can be ingested without serious health consequences. On the helpful hints page is this statement - "Dogs and other pets may be attracted to the protein in our litter. Please place litter box where they cannot easily access the contents. Some dogs and other pets may have a tendency to over-consume."

What is the best litter pan for a male ferret?

The best litter pan is usually the trangle kind the fits in the corner of the cage. Ferrets prefer to "do their business" in a corner by backing up to the corner, so wait to see which corner your fuzzbutt likes and put the litter pan there {this is also the quickest way to litter train them}. Try to use a litter that is recomended for ferrets (my personal choice is Yesterday's News as it is made from recycled newspaper) as some kinds of litter can cause health issues or (in the case of the sandy kind of litter) your fuzzy might like to play in it. Don't be surprised if he thinks the pan is a new bed, this is normal, I have 6 males and they all have gone that route. It might be a good idea to have more than one pan especially if the cage has more than one level. __________________________________________ Most ferrets I have met prefer the large square ones. The corner ones are too small for them to fit their whole bodies into

Is it possible or a reasonable idea to train a cat and a ferret to use the same litterbox?

No, ferrets will not use a litter box with a lot of feces in it, they prefer a clean litter pan. And you cannot use the same litter for cats that you can for ferrets. Use litter specially made for ferrets, which cost more. With a cat, you can use cheap clay litter which cannot be used for ferrets, so it make better sense to have separate litter pans from other contributors: Not really...ferrets insist on corners, and do much better when the front end (i.e. side of a corner without a wall) is at floor level - they poop, then scoot a few inches and use the floor as toilet paper. However, because of their insistence to dig and the fact that many types of litter can harm their eyes (anything with crystals in it...and of course, using cat litter without crystals is a smelly pain...also, clumping litter is a HUGE no no since it'll stick to them and they'll ingest it - not good for their narrow digestive tracts)... a much better alternative is to use dog potty training pads. I personally use the neat N dry brand, and cut them in half into triangles so that they work well in the corner. They're great at absorbing wetness and odor - and much easier to clean. I just change them once a day and put them in that morning's newspaper plastic bag before I put it in the big trash can.


Are ferrets obedient?

Ferrets can be taught to obey with proper training from you, which requires a lot of time and patience. Ferrets are very curious, and will do whatever they are not supposed to do. You can convince some ferrets to do tricks for food, and some animals follow their owner around, and most can learn to come when called. They listen slightly better then a cat, but they will never obey like a dog would. They good news is that ferrets are pretty harmless compared to a dog, and most are gentle and playful, so when you spend time with them, they'll soon learn not to bite, use the litter box, and even comprehend what you want from them, but whether they listen or not is up to them!


What is the best kind of ferret litter?

Any kind of non-clumping, clay-free litter will work just fine. Check your pet store for "Critter Litter" a brand made just for Ferrets and other small animals. It's made of recycled newspaper pellets and special odor absorbers. Yesterdays News is also good and cheaper than Marshall litter, which is the same thing. Worlds Best cat litter is amazing at odor control but expensive. I now use woodstove pellets, I can get a 40lb bag for $5

Recipe for natural cat litter?

Cedar chips (mulched) is good and leaves a nice scent. Sand mixed with Baking Soda is also good. Costco carries a good cheap clumping brand (nothing in it to harm your cat) and it absorbs odor. If you like you can also mix Baking Soda in with the cheaper brands of clumping kitty litter. The clumping kitty litter is the best because you can scoop out their poop without wasting too much litter.
