We got two free ferrets and I love them they are so cool. So cute. I dont know much about raising them but I will learn. We need to get a litter box b/c they like to poop in the corners. does anyone else have any ferrets?

The best pets ever. I have two.And I don't think that there are any ferrets that are more spoilt than these two. We have extreme weather where I stay.It gets very hot and very cold, so in the winter they have there own heater and in the summer I fill two litre coke bottles with water and freeze it, i then rap it in a towl and they like to sleeo rite next to the bottle. Ferrets can die very easy of heat, they need to stay cool. My ferrets have a lovely two square metre cage that they stay in when we aren't at home, they only come inside when we are home because they really get up to no good when left alone.LOL. Good luck with your new pets, as for the litter box my one ferret still sometimes does it next to the box...Good luck with your little fuzzy's

I have one ferret that I have had for 4 and a 1/2 years now and he is 5 years old. He is very spoiled and has a big town house cage that he sleeps in but most of the time he just runs lose in the house. If you do let your run around make sure that you dont have any holes in your floors or a open dryer vent hole because they will go through them and get lose. They are so much fun to have and play with but you do have to watch them they can be worst then having kids because they like to take off with you stuff, anything that they can carry or drag they will take and hide under beds or in their cages. And it is best to get one of the corner kitty litter boxes that way you can put it right in the corner for them. You will have alot of fun with them, congrats on your new pets.

We dont have ferrets but I hear they make great pets. Hopefully the litterbox will solve your potty problems. What did you name your new little friends?
