I rescued two ferrets that were badly neglected and they are the sweetest babies you can tell they are so thankful to be in a loving home. They’re like puppies they lick me when I pet them and never bite. I’ve even heard them bark! I switched them from a ferret kibble they came with to Ziwi thanks to your recommendations and they love it. They have a water bowl I change every day and a bottle hanging in the cage just as a back up if they spill the bowl while I’m away or anything. Your videos have been SO helpful in learning how to care for them and make them happy, I leave the cage door open 24/7 and let them roam one room and a hallway and they usually just sleep in the cage and come out to play whenever they hear me pass by. I was having trouble with them pooping in random corners but I took your advice of putting blankets/toys in those spots and it worked so well. Thank you for all the help you’ve made it so easy for me! ❤️

I just got a rescue that was on the brink of death. Hes already been to the vet, but feeding is a nightmare. Also introducing him to his siblings is like something I’ve never experienced. He has to be caged alone. He’s slowly coming along but I am realizing there may be so much more I could do. I saw at one point you helped other people with feeding. Is there anyway I could get in touch with you and get ideas? If not that’s cool, thanks for the video 🙌🌸

I move it but of course, he still finds a way. They always do lmao. But i was wondering if you could tell me if they are able to eat cat food? he seems to really like it. It’s the Meow Mix. I would love to hear your take on this because i really am not sure.

Most dogs will thrive on a home prepared, nutritionally adequate diet whether that be raw or cooked (ideally raw) but if you can't do raw, my suggestions are similar to that of ferrets. K9 Naturals and Ziwipeak dog food. I don't have any true dog kibbles I'm a big fan of but Nature's Logic is recommended in the raw dog communities. Hope this helps.

The boy will go in the right spot here and there but usually just goes all over. We praise when he goes in the proper place and always leave a little poop behind on the new litter pads. Idk what else to do.

@@Pazuandfriends Awesome! You've convinced me that kibble is probably worth avoiding, but I'm very disorganized and don't historically even really prepare meals for myself. So for me the change is intimidating; baby steps are important; and the work you've done in summarizing, analyzing, and tabulating everything is very, very helpful.

I’m a brand new ferret owner. Never had them before .. I’ve been watching videos of all kinds and a few of yours .. I’d love to stick with raw, however I’m worried about the cost 💲 of raw diet. I’m also slightly confused between raw and kibble . Can I feed both? Can they have chicken breast ? Or is it just the odd parts of an animal that humans don’t consume .

They could have irritated skin!

I recommend an unscented baby soap since it’s meant for sensitive skin! That could also be due to changing of the weather and shedding as well!
