▶Moose's Limited Edition 2021 FERRET Calendar is NOW LIVE!!! 👉 shor.by/calendar2021

So basically you just try to take care of a crackhead cat who tries to die everyday

The ZOOM through the garden was way too funny lmao

I’ve been wanting to get 2 or 3 ferrets and the more vids I watch the more intimidating and scary it feels

2 years ago one of my ferrets escaped. People helped me find her through Facebook and she needed up in a shelter over half an hour away. A neighbor had found her and was kind enough to take her into his house and save her. he took her to a ferret shelter and I found her through them. They are free roam and still don't not know how she got out. I was so lucky she came back home.

My grandma's ferret had a knife in its mouth and ran by my leg and cut me

Got a ferret 8 weeks ago and learning so much with this channel! Love it! Still in the bonding and trusting fase, but love it so much.

Oh you nailed it with this video! We have flipped the box spring, we have lined the bottom of the couch with wooden boards, we have had to move the retainer away from the nightstand. Ticked all the boxes and I was laughing at all the things we have seen with our babies! Love it. Thanks for the reminders and tips, as always

I had a deaf ferret get into a brand new sofa couch I bought. She got her head stuck and I couldn’t get her out. Poor thing. I ended up calling the fire department after hours of trying to get her out, while keeping the couch intact. The fire department hacked the couch into bits with an axe in minutes while saving my ferret from suffocation. 😂😅 bye bye couch. I learned how important ferret proofing was after that!

I so want those wall tubes behind you, my ferrets would absolutely love something like that

Having a ferret really changes your habits to the extreme. I've developed many extra cautious behaviors over the years that are just necessary to keep my ferrets safe, and I'm sure these habits will be there to stay long after I no longer have ferrets. Lord knows when that will be, hopefully not anytime soon.

I want to get a ferret, but I'll have to talk the landlord into letting me get one. Has anyone ever moved with their ferrets? Does their odor stay around? And if it does how can you get rid of it before moving? I think that will be the hardest part to have an answer for.

i’ve had my little guy for a year now and all i can say is he keeps me on my feet and keeps my room clean

My latest apartment doesn't have doors for the bedrooms. So what I did was order a baby gate that swings open (yes it had 2-3 inch gaps. But I bought the plastic material used for office desk chairs at a fabric store, used a hole puncher to make holes, and zip tied it to the gate. I also left my self a enough extra plastic to round my edges so I could use command strips to hold it down. I ended up doing two different styles (one on each side). I did the sticker on one side (so it was on the plastic and wall itself to hold it down). Then I I got the mini hooks and made holes with my hole puncher and made it so they held onto the hook so I didn't have to worry about it moving. It has worked very well for me! Otherwise, I have learned to become more of a minimalist when it comes to leaving stuff in my room for my pets. Otherwise stuff is moved or higher up and out of their reach.

LOVE the fitted sheet over the boxspring idea.

Can't wait to be a mom :D

Where did you get those tubes for your walls? I NEED

Thank you so much, this is such an amazing channel!

i work at a pet store where one of our two ferrets got adopted by itself. the one who was left behind is very lonely. ive been researching and saving up to take him home and hopefully rescue another ferret to be his companion, given he doesnt get adopted by then! these videos are such a great help!

A great benefit of me getting a ferret soon is that I have a massive clean up under all of my furniture since I had heard of them getting blockages from swallowing loose small bits of plastic and things. Can't wait for them to make a new mess to clean! I have been watching your videos and googling things to keep mine safe and happy. My dad has ferrets and one or both of them recently had babies. Once they are fully ready to leave their mother(s) I'm getting one who I called Sherlock because he was looking all around and tried to crawl in my shoe when I first met him outside of his cage! It's gonna be tough training him up but your videos will help and seeing how happy your ferrets are to play and cuddle has been a great inspiration!

I'm gonna be getting two Ferret's and moving soon so this is very very helpful.

I love all your videos. We're new ferret owners and ar are learning a ton from your channel. Little Jerry is off to a good start! Thank you for sharing your vast experience 🙂!

You help so much!! I didn't think about the couch situation and generally I think I learned so so SO much from this video!

Mine already got in my box springs, so I’m glad that there’s a part on this

We love these videos! Thank you!

I want to get a ferret so all of your videos have been insanely helpful in research!

Thanks for much for the tips I love it all 🥳🥳🥳

Super helpful. Love these tips!!

Thank you this will help me when I get my ferret I been doing research sance I was 15 years old and I still dont have one right know but I will get one one day. I am still learning about ferrets this very moment right know in 26 years old and still researching ferrets learning something new everyday

I love this video! It tells all the things that can injure your ferret, this video was very useful to me since I’m getting a ferret today, I just need to know what to ferret proof these things with.

Very helpful typs! :)

Thank you so much!

These are really good ideas fr lol🤣🤣💯💯stuff I wouldn't even think about doing or trying

Excellent video. Secluded areas could also become potties. I have experienced So many of your tips first hand, from loose floor vents to stashes, to escaping through a window screen. You are doing the ferret community a service and I will link you on my proboards forum.

I can’t stop watching your videos because no.1 your videos are amazing no.2 I am getting my first ferret soon!!! I’m so excited

Omg this helped me so much

Omg thank you I'm getting ok and I have watched all of your videos and they help me so much thank you again 💗 💖

I literately said, “I don’t have a fireplace.” I look to my right, and I’m staring directly at my heater in my room, LOL! 😂

aghhh 😭😭😭 our house seemed SO ready for ferrets, very available, very meat loving and almost always have raw meat available.. extremely docile cats, a whole potential extra room where we could put the night time cage and supplies in, very clean house, we have baby gates already, and SO much more including the fact im obsessed with them and both of my parents think theyre adorable then i realized we have a whole reclinable couch thats very expensive and my mom goes crazy about... man

I love your Channel I can find anything abt ferrets here I love it 😻

Those tube tunnels on the walls are everything

I'm not a ferret owner...yet so thanks for the help! Also your ferrets are SO CUTE

You can also take the legs off your furniture and sit them on a 2x4 frame if you prefer them elevated off the floor. It helps prolong the life of your furniture too. Helped me save a couch lol.

How beautiful! Great video.

Ugh thank you so much for these! I’m adopting a ferret this weekend and I’m so excited. I just want to be sure to educate myself completely to give her a good life!

Btw I absolutely love your videos so very helpful

I have a reclining couch like those chairs at fancy movie theaters and my ferret LOVES it in there and I hate it so much when she goes inside

Love your videos!!! Found this channel 1 week ago

thank you cause i was worried if my new ferret will do something bad so i need to learn even more

Didn't even think of half this stuff

I've been doing research for getting a ferret for nearly 11 years and I got one finally this past July but /just/ found your channel! Would have come in handy back then lol, but I'm binging the vids now

Hiii , love uour channel

thank you so much I own my own little girl named Juno and I was planning on keeping her in my room with her cage and this really helped me stay prepared 😁

Yay you done what I reqested 😀thx

One thing to add, just like you said, ferret will climb stuff but are not agile. My ferrets love to climb in my bed and it is safer to give them a easy and safe way up and down, than to try to stop them. A cat tree or stairs will do the trick.

At least I know now that having a ferret will help with keeping my room clean 😂

Doing research on different pets I can have that would suit small apartments. My last pet was free roam rabbits and I had to rabbit proof the place such as protect computer cables, books on the bookshelf, wooden legs of the furniture as rabbits love to chew. I know ferrets are carnivores, but have you had issues with them cable chewing and such? Cheers, loving learning about such cute critters from your channel.

Yea I think I’m ready

When she said: You'll be surprised how brave your ferret is. Me: Ferrets don't fear death, death fears them. XD

I so need to know where you got those tubes that you have on your wall. I will be moving into a new house and would love to set some of these up in my new office

Idk why but the ferret jumping in the trash bin made me laugh so much

having had 3 of the little thieves myself, I can tell you there is no ferret "proofing" only "resistant"....love the little critters. (Sweezel, Domino and Slinky were their names BTW)

I got one 2 days ago and im training it to not bite so hard and ITS WORKING i put it in a timeout box (dark n boring) for 2 minutes when he bites way too hard but i still encourage the playful biting.

One of members of our business went into my wallet and took a hundred dollar bill. I looked at all their favorite areas only to see one sleeping next to the money. My kids were like they are starting their own business of selling toys!

HI! can you make a video on DIY ferret toys for enrichment? like what are safe materials to use, ect. I love your content! thanks!

Solid shit lady, and you're okay on the eyes. Good facts presented by someone decent to look at, keep it up.

I am blorobly getting a ferret or tow so this helps alot

We just adopted 2 8 wk old ferrets and I recently found your channel! Have you done the video about the wall tubes yet? I was looking and dont know if I missed it and just cant find it or if you haven't done it yet!! =]

Now I’m very scared if my ferrets will get injured/hurt very bad!! But I know I had to know at some point, Ty very much!

I have a cat but am interested in ferrets. My cat would get into the box spring so I got a bedbug encasement for the box spring and that works great! Your option is cheaper though, wish I would have though of that!

“ DO YOU HAVE A RECLINING CHAIR” Me with reclining couch: YES “ YOU MIGHT WANT TO GET RID OF IT ALL TOGETHER” me: 😯. Well dang

I have had ferrets for years and do all of these things, but I am so happy you have this video because so many people don't realize all the hazards that are possible. Thanks for making such a comprehensive and informative list to help keep our monsters safe and happy.

I highly recommend not allowing your ferret (or any other pet) under your bed at all. You can either block it off or put the bed directly down on the floor. I haven't heard specifically of ferrets being crushed, but small dogs and cats have been injured or even killed when a bed slipped out of the frame and fell on them.

Hello, I live in France with my two dogs who have had a difficult past, they were able to grow up with my old ferret who lived completely free at home. At home my ferret played and slept with the dogs (in winter she liked to sleep between my legs). She accompanied us on our outings, she was always in my hood or on my knees (I'm in a manual wheelchair), as soon as I put her on the ground, the dogs automatically watched over her. I spend my days taking care of my animals, unfortunately for the moment I live in an apartment, so we go out most of the day (with their difficult past, I do everything for their well-being). The day I have a piece of land or at least a garden, I will build a secure enclosure for my ferrets so that they are safe there and cannot run away. Before the construction of the enclosure, I will dig a false pit between 50cm and 1m deep (between 20 and 40 inches deep), to the dimensions of the future enclosure. On the sides I would build low walls and I would pour a small concrete slab pierced with small copper tubes to evacuate rainwater, the slab will rest on a bed of gravel for drainage. I would fill the tank thus created with the extracted earth, they could dig but not escape and I would build the enclosure on the low walls. Then I could finally tackle the development of the enclosure to recreate a natural environment for them. There will be small shrubs and Aromatic plants which will be intended to scare away parasites such as fleas, ticks and worms (mugwort, tansy, Garlic, lavender, peppermint, Rosemary, basil, Indian lemongrass), their smells will be enough to keep the parasites far enough away from the enclosure, moreover by rubbing there the ferrets will have a light pleasant and natural perfume. I will sink a small basin into the ground to make them a basin in which they can cool off and play, possibly with a piece of pond tarpaulin and a solar pump, I could even make them a small stream with a small waterfall. With straight branches 1-2 inches wide I would make a small log cabin for them and a small play area with macrame netting I would custom make, the play area will be on sand to cushion falls . I could then create a tunnel for them so that they could go from the house to their enclosure and back to the house. Yes, it will represent a budget but I could plan it in advance. Yes, it will be work, but I like manual labor, working the land, taking care of my animals and doing everything for their good. Anyway I don't have a job so I take the opportunity to do what I love. As I like manual work, I take the opportunity to do things for my dogs. I collect wooden pallets that I dismantle to make furniture, for my dogs I made a basket (90×120cm / 35.5×47inches) on which I put a baby mattress (60×120cm / 24×47inches) that I found. I plan to improve the basket by building storage lockers (sheets, mattress pads, plaids, towels and toys) that I would put under their basket, on the basket I would make a mezzanine (60×120cm / 24×47inches) to put a second mattress for that they have more space, on the side of the first basket there will remain a free space (30×120cm 11.5×47inches), I would make stairs there to help them go up and down, under each step I would make drawers to store their papers , sweets and saddlery. In macramé, I made collars, harnesses and leashes for my dogs. I see that you are lucky to have an exterior, you could do the same for your ferrets, they will be happy to be able to spend time in a corner of nature. You are lucky to have a man in your life, together you can do more than me alone. To prevent your ferrets from digging into your potted plants, you can put large stones in them that they won't be able to lift, which you can bring back from your outings in nature and at the edge of the water. I had a third dog, who had the most difficult past, she also grew up with my old ferret, alas she left us eight months ago, we had become really close. The youngest dog I had was weaned off alcohol by a father who sold her to me to buy his cam when she was only six weeks old. The other two were beaten and then abandoned the first was only five months old, and the third was only six months old, she was completely panicked and starved. Seeing everything I do for them, my dogs like to thank me by towing my wheelchair, so I bought them sport harnesses. With me they found a good Human Company that they don't want to lose, so they watch over me a lot and they saved me three aggressions by repelling the aggressors (welcome to the modern world). Now I am looking for a Nordic-type puppy (Husky, Samoyed or Malamute), to go mushing and experience many adventures in nature. While offering them a good life, I could create many memories with photo books for my old age.

I am a really big fan

THEY ARE SOOOO CUTEEEEEEE I WANNT ONE 😭💖

When is the video of the clear tubbing coming out?

I’ll start! Me and my sisters are trying to get ferrets!

If you have a bedroom garbage can put it somewhere high! Same with in your bathroom or just close the door. My ferrets love trashing my stuff and it's so useful to put stuff like that up high cause then they can't trash it

Ferret headcount :'D

This is so good Haley!!! What do you recommend for the closet?

They have these things to keep your ferrets out from under the bed now. I use them and they work great

Cutest video ever!

Pick up the clothing piles. Everytime my partner steps around piles of clothes, they almost end up on “Dateline”…

Ahhhh so much ferret

"Take a look at that GYYAPP" yo whattt?? 😂

A good tip about plants: If you have a plant that hangs low and you still cant seem to get it out of your ferret's reach, spray it with lemon or PREFERABLY vinegar. They will stay away and definitely not try taking a bite. This a good and harmless way for both your ferret and plant. Feel free to even spray the soil. (be careful if your plant does not too too well with more acidic soil)

Does anyone have any advice for securing HVAC vent covers? Are there heavier covers or something else that can be used?

Hi just wondering what tubes do you use? Also with clipping their nails what kind of clippers do you use?

What do you use for Cord control? Our ferret cage/room is in my home office. (I work from home). They have the entire room to explore but being an office we have cord, power, internet, ect. I have the open ports plugged with baby safe plugs, and I have the wires as covered and the main areas blocked with heavy mesh netting to keep them out, but there are still wires open. Do you use the Pet bad taste spray/gel? Just don’t want them chewing while I am away.

where’d you get the clear tubes from i rly wanna set up some in my room

Just this month me and her daddy had spent over $1,000 dollars in hospital fee because of something my 2 years old eat, I have 3, they put her on 2 different antibiotics every 12 hours for 15 days and my baby is 💯 good 🙏

oh please where do you get the great tube system that is on the wall?

Where did you buy the tunnels for your ferrets please and thank you I'm getting one on Thursday

What kind of oil are you talking about that you can put on your skin to help bond with them?

Can you please post the link for the clear ferret tubes?

#themodernferret would the cat food “Instinct: the raw brand , ultimate protein” be a good food for ferrets? It looked like it had better protein in it than the wysong ferret food. Also could you do a video on cleaning their ears and teeth? I love your videos and all the information has really been helping us with our ferrets. We are doing a blend of raw chicken with some dry food so it will help with keeping their teeth clean but we want the best dry food we can find thats safe for them to eat 😁

Can you do a video about places your ferrets are allowed and are safe?

Where can I get tubing nd how much and what the names for it so it easy to find

I love this😃 Question : Must I put my ferrets into their cages when I go out or should they feel free to roam around the house??
