Well, it depends on who you are, how busy you are, and the kind of ferret you want to keep. You can have a ferret that lives mostly in a cage, or a ferret that roams around your house/apartment and spends next to no time in a cage. However, a ferret that does live in its cage most of the time still needs to be played with and let out often, or else it could become overweight, lazy, or extremely jumpy. A ferret that lives outside its cage needs to live in an environment that is completely "ferret-proofed", or stripped of anything that could be harmful to the ferret; small, swallowable objects, escape routes, and places where it could fall or get stuck in. Also, ferrets need to be litter trained. This isn't usually particularly difficult, depending on the ferret. In addition, ferrets need to have their nails trimmed, ears cleaned, fur groomed, cage cleaned, and attention to be the best pet it can be. Overall, it sounds a lot more difficult to care for a ferret than it really is, but again, it depends on the personality of the ferret and how much time you have to spend with it.

How much litter should your ferrets be going through?

That would be impossible to answer. A ferret can weight anywhere between 1 - 5 pounds. And the food a ferret is given, how well it's digested and what comes out. A high quality ferret food would leave less than some cheap food. A how often do you clean the litter box. And for how many ferrets? Ferrets need to go every 3 to 4 hours, and they don't like dirty litter box. Ferrets can go through litter quite rapidly

How do you train your cat to stop using the litter tray?

How odd. Most people want to train their cats to use the litter tray, not to train them to stop using it. If you don't want your cat to use the litter tray, that's easy; remove the tray. If the tray is not there, the cat cannot use it. Move the litter tray outdoors to get your cat used to going outside and then, eventually, remove the litter tray completely.
