sure its your choice
but i think
no wire is good.
they could get their head stuck in it and get choked
or a pointy piece sticking out could hurt them.
Ferrets can be okay by themselves - as long as they have plenty attention from humans and plenty of time out of their cage. My ferret is an only ferret after his cagemate died of old age at 9 years. I do not cage him, letting him free roam in a ferret proof bedroom, and I play with him a lot as he does demand my attention. If your ferret is going to be alone if you are away from home frequently, like for a job or school, then another ferret would be needed for companionship.
Of course not. Here are the reasons: 1. It is dangerous. you could cut the ferret. And it's just plain dangerous. 2. A ferret needs its fur for warmth. 3. Your ferret would be miserable without fur. So just don't. Okay? Good.
Wooden cages are fine and are used to build ferret cubs or hutches for ferrets housed outdoors in the UK. It's not necessary to paint the wood, instead use timber treatment sold for use on garden fences and outbuildings, and it has to be 100 % non toxic, with the manufacture's instructions followed implicitly. Never use creosote, it is poisonous. Ferrets need hard flooring, not mesh. Refer to the related question below "How to make a ferret cage"
As long as the ferret ate a little, it will be okay. A ferret fed dog food continually will die. Ferrets need to be fed ferret food only.
Ferrets can get quite comfortable in their habitats and a change could cause stress. Depends on the individual ferret. Some are more adaptable than others
NO.
If First Step is a type of clay cat litter, then no. Ferrets like to snorkel and dig in their litter and clumping/clay cat litters may stick to a ferret's nose or bottom, causing issues. The best type of litter to use is a pelleted litter like Fresh News, Yesterdays News, Marshall ferret litter, or woodstove pellets
As long as the pork is cooked, it would be okay for ferrets, avoid highly processed meats like sausage
How do you get your dog used to your ferretsFirst let the dog see the ferret in the cage, and note the reaction of the dog. You would be able to tell if the dog is trying to get at the ferret, that it might not be a wise idea for them to be together. If the dog seems to be okay after a few days you can try holding it keeping a safe distance just in case your dog goes after. Once it seems that the dog is okay with a ferret, let them interact, but make sure that the ferret has a enclosed nearby safe place to run to. Never leave other animals with ferrets unsupervised, watch them at all times.from another contributor: Keep them both in cages on different sides of the room then after they get calm move them closer then repeat that til there close and then try it with them out but holding them both and make sure your have them tight.
No and never because they can attack each other i would separate them NOW!
Depends on the type of ferret food as all have different ingredients. as long as the food meets your cat's nutritional needs.
