How do you convert a Shed into a ferret home like will it need heating ect...?
A shed would not be an ideal home for a pet ferret as they are domesticated animals and very susceptible to weather and predators. I would suggest researching first before you get a ferret. An ideal habitat for a ferret would be a large cage with lots a blanks and hammocks. Also a litter box with wood pellet litter rather then regular cat litter because it can cause breathing issues as they will like to dig and play in it. Best advice would be to talk to a shelter... there are plenty around that has a lot of experience to assist.
