Ferret Reviews

I have owned ferrets for about 12 years now.  I think they are great pets if taken care of and trained well.  In 12 years I have had 4 different ferrets and they have all been great companions and great with children.  I never had any children living in my home, but when we had family over the ferrets were always a big curiosity for the all of the kids.  Mine never bit anyone or even acted mean.  They tolerated being picked up and constant attention from the children.

Before getting a ferret you should do your research on what it takes to care for one.  It's not difficult to learn, they just...

In regards to ferret foamy fries, they're awesome! Ferrets find these treats to be addictive and a real delight.

They are also healthy for ferrets. They contain no sugar which is bad for ferrets. They are a great treat to give you ferrets on occasion.

They will love you for them.

     The word "ferret" means "little theif" in latin. This is an omen. Being a proud owner of a ferret, a 4 year old girl named Taco, I have been shown and discovered every possible hidey hole in my home and have found everything from holiday candy and polly pocket clothes to flip flops and cat toys tucked into and under just about anything that you can hide something in. Ferrets are a cute loveable unquie pet that need special care and attention. i love my ferret and have been blessed with my good natured Taco, but a ferret is not a pet that everyone can handle and care for. They do take...

Ferrets are terrific pets but they do require an owner to make a commitment of finances and time.  Anyone considering the purchase of a ferret should know that they do have a musky scent even when they are descented.  Prospective owners should also research the breeder of the ferret prior to purchase as some ferret breeders are not ethical.  Marshall Farms ferrets all have a small tattoo in their ears and they are bred for temperment, health and physical traits such as coat color.  All of the ferrets I have purchased have been Marshall Farms ferrets and they have all been sweethearts but...

Don't get me wrong--ferrets are my all-time favorite animals. I'm happily devoting my life to them. They're gregarious, playful, loving, and smart. Not to mention soulful, soft, and loving.

But as a rescuer and shelter operator, I wish far fewer people would get ferrets. That way fewer ferrets would be homeless. I wouldn't recommend them for people who cannot afford huge vet bills, people with small children, or people who aren't willing to completely turn their lives upside down. They're also not for anyone who may be going off to college, transferring to California, or who would consider getting...

I have a ferret named CHI CHI and she is a wonderful pet. She is playful and loveable. She is a riot to watch at night when we get her out of her cage to play. She runs around and hops and runs through her tubes. She is good with kids she doesn't bite. She doesn't scratch. I love having her in the family. My dog likes to play with her but she doesn't care for the dog to much. She loves attention. She likes to run through her tubes. And she really like teasing the dog when she is in the tubes. She will run back and forth to drive the dog nuts. Ferrets sleep alot so you need to make sure they have...

Ferrets make a great pet!  I have two ferrets and they are so much fun to watch.  They play together , sleep together, and keep each other company.  They have a 4+ foot cage where they sleep and eat and they also have an inside play yard where they can run around in with lots of toys and sleeping bags plus food and water.  I have a kitten who jumps in to their play area and plays with them.  When the ferrets have enough, they chase him out.  It is quite comical to watch.  I had two other ferrets in the past, but only one at a time.  It's more fun with more than one!  They can get expensive,...
