Best Answer

The best way is to use a wire brush and then paint the cleaned area with a rust preventive paint. Please do not let your ferret back into the cage until the paint is completely dry. Think of your ferret as if it were a small child and take precautions just as you would for a very bright two year old. Ferrets are very curious and might try to "taste" the paint as well as they might eat the rust flakes, so be careful.

When should I cage my two ferrets and when should I let them free roam?

Ferrets are not caged animals, but you cage them for their protection. Most ferret owners cage ferrets when they're not at home or unable to supervise them when free roaming. Ferrets need about 4 hours daily time out of their cage in a ferret proofed environment. Ferrets being burrowing animals by nature are subject to crawl and fall asleep into places that can be dangerous and you cannot get them out, like in major appliances, couches, recliners (very dangerous for ferrets). I personally do not cage my ferrets, but keep them in a bedroom totally ferret proofed so they are safe


How many ferrets of the same litter can you keep in a cage?

You can keep them all in the same cage provided it has plenty of room and they aren't confined too much. A ferrets cage size at minimum should be at least 3 foot width X 2 foot depth X 2 foot height. A large, well designed cage for ferrets is a necessity especially if you plan on keeping more ferrets in the same cage.
