My ferrets have been free roaming for 2-3 days now, they've been much happier and calmer, my new lil girl who was very anxious has bonded with me so much more since. They still play and have their crazy moments but now they can also sleep on my lap or follow me💕next step, raw diet!😁

I believe that animals kept in cages/tanks are more neglected since they are not like a dog who are constantly around you. Free roaming is something I would totally do.

My ferrets have a double unit ferret nation and with my college work lately I've been so busy that they've only been getting about 3 hours out (I know, its bad). This video has really good timing and it's a perfect reminder of why my fuzzies need time out even if they're just sleeping❤

PLEASE GOD FREE ROAM YOUR FERRETS! My girls get 8-12 hours a day and they're so much happier. Bryn bless you for another great ferret care video ❤

Bruh I was so confused when I was looking for ferret cages and I saw like...this itty bitty cages I was like?? What...a ferret would barely even begin to fit in that LMAO

I free ranged my ferrets around a few weeks ago, I love waking up with my ferrets licking my face. Totally recommended

Can I free-roam my ferret in a room? I have dogs who I dont trust around her, but I have a room that she can keep to herself.

Finally! A knowledgeable ferret KZfaqr! Love her!

I was thinking of adopting a pair of ferrets but after watching some of your videos I've decided that I'm going to wait until a time in my life where I have a home I can free roam them in and the time to give them everything they need. Thanks for all your information, I feel like it really helped me make the right decision ❤️

7:15 that's a rat cage, I had that cage for my rats

Yay I’ve been looking for a video like this!!

honestly I am so glad I have been watching you for my ferret facts. I feel like if I never watched you my ferret tofu would be in his cage all day long thank you so much for educating me :)

Loved the video! Please keep up the amazing work. (Also tell Pazu, Momo, Appa, and Howl I said hi

i do watch your videos because i need education on ferrets, but i also watch your videos because you are absolutely gorgeous and your voice is so calming and pretty. 💞💞

subscribed!! i love your content 🥰

your actually telling good advice and educating people definitely subscribing even though i'm not getting a ferret anytime soon lol

I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE YOUR VIDEOS

👍👍👍👍👍👍i needed this

LOVE

I originally bought that first cage you showed for my ferret but I didnt like it once I got it home. Ended up buying the massive two floor ferret nation cage, was the biggest one I could find at the time.

❤awwww!

I am getting ferrets next year.(well on a own date) the condition of getting them is when my rats pass. I have had rats for 3-4. So I have a rather large free roam knowledge. Your channel is very helpful for me to learn. I am college student so time is mild issue. I will be getting the ferret nation. They would’ve lived in my rat cage if i didn’t break it.

You are so amazing

People who say they can’t free roam when they’re home are making excuses. I was like this too until I bit the bullet and did it. You guys, they literally sleep for hours and they are so much more calm when they’re out for most/all day. You may have to clean up a mess or two a day but it’s so worth their quality of life. Just try it ❤️

My ferret currently gets 6 hours out on week days, I’m still in school so she is put up when I’m not home and at night for safety reasons, and is out for roughly 13-14 hours on weekends as long as I’m home all day (which I usually am), once again she is put up at night. She hasn’t fully adjusted to it yet because it was a recent change but I’m looking forward to seeing a good result!

Ever since I've had ferrets (about 12 years now) they've only known free roaming. It broke my heart to cage them when I went to work and was constantly looking for ways to ferret proof my (then) apartments and now, my home. I'm proud to say they have true free roam of the whole house when I'm gone. It did take some real effort (I went through five or six fence iterations alone) and some monetary investment, but it was worth it. They are VERY smart animals and can figure out ways into trouble, so it takes time and patience...but keep at it. They'll appreciate the effort. Also, for those of you considering a ferret (or, more recommended, two or more), they are part of the weasel family. They aren't rodents. They have high energy and need room to get up to speed. It keeps them healthier to have open spaces, stairs and multiple obstacles to negotiate. They're creative thinkers and have curious minds too...a wheel and a water bowl is not gonna be sufficient mental stimulation. Please, don't cage your ferret(s). Or, if you need to to keep them safe, please be well on the way to proofing your place for their release into the great wide open. They'll love you for it. Nothing against rat, mouse and hamster/gerbil owners, if I was one, I'd find a way to free roam them too. Happy ferreting!

Im getting my ferret tomorrow and cant wait to have it litter trained so it will be free roaming.

We are 100% free roam and these two still sleep aaaaaalot. They are very calm. I have owned ferrets prior to my current ones and they were never this chill. I caved my previous ferrets for 8 hrs while I was at work. I’m more knowledgeable now.

After watching this video I learned that what I was doing was wrong and figured out why my little guy tried to rip his cage apart. I cleaned up my bedroom and made it ferret safe and starting today he’s going to free roam unless I’m asleep or out of the house. He’s been out for 6 hours now and I can already tell he’s going to be happier.

My ferret was free roaming from the night I got him and he uses the litter box he's well-trained

The prices on these tiny cages are ridiculous! Idk about the US, but here in the UK, you can buy the petplanet rat and ferret cage for about 200 dollars, and it's almost the same size as a double ferret nation! There are also other similar options, but this was the first one that came to mind. Maybe it's just me, but i find it incredible that, for the same price, you could either get an appropriate cage, or a pathetically inappropriate cage, and people don't ever say anything about this.

My babies roam free my room all day while I’m home, they get put up when it’s eating time, overnight, and when I’m not home. I don’t let them free roam the whole house because they would be cat food in seconds, one of my cats is pure evil.

I’m getting a ferret this weekend!!!

I have a question say my ferrets where in my room and when I’m sick do I still have to let them out cuz can’t ferrets like catch the flu

i know this video is kinda old. but my ferret was free roam before he passed in my bedroom but i am now in an apartment and hopefully getting a new baby. it would be FANTASTIC to see how you ferret proofed or trained yours to avoid dangerous things around the house :))

Im gonna get a ferret after the quarantine and ive done my research and watch your videos which are very helpful :) but i want to use a playpen i think i found one on chewy, but i dont know if it would be good if you could elaborate its a 48x24?

Do you think the Ferplast ferret tower is an appropriate ferret cage? And also can you make a video on some of the appropriate cages for ferrets

Ferrets arriving in april, and om ready! Yes i know

Due to having 3 medium sized dogs[they are indoor-outdoor dogs], I'm not 100% able to free roam my ferret, as she is terrified of them. But I let her out every single time she wakes up from a nap, and I make it a point to let her free roam the room her cage is kept in during the day while I am home.

Is one room simply dedicated to the ferrets enough for them to spend all their time in? Provided they get a lot of enrichment and toys in that one room.

My 2 ferrets get out of there double critter nation at 630 am n don't go back in till 800pm n have a huge huge room to there self with there have toys tunnels ball pit.. I am working to switching them to raw and order from where you do it's going to be work because they won't touch raw because the person who had them had them on cat food.. Love your videos

I hope one day i can buy a house with a bedroom dedicated to my (future) ferrets!

I'm so happy to know that I have the double ferret nation cage, I dont even have ferrets I have two degus in it but I was considering buying an other one for a ferret possibly tro ferrets

My furbabies cage is almost always open. I only lock them up when I 100% know nobody will be home to supervise them for extended periods of time. I'm home-schooled, so I kinda only leave my house for the essentials & never for longer than 3-4 hrs if my furs are caged.

My ferret, Wyatt, basically gets play time when he wants. We let him out about 3-4 times a day for about 2hrs apiece. If I'm off work or have no plans he's basically free roam for the day. I do need to upgrade his cage. I want the ferret nation and when I do get it I will get my Wyatt a buddy or 2

I only have a small cage for like when I get a new ferret to keep them separate for a small time and sometimes a time out

How does your ferrets get onto your bed??

Should they stay out overnight and should I put them in the cage when I go to school because I feel like someone should be home.

Do you think that the Ferplast ferret tower XXL (the double) is good for two ferrets?

If play pens are okay, can they climb out of the play pen or does the play pen need a cover or meet a specific height range? How big should the pen be?

what do you do when you have to go to school?

I’m going to be getting a ferret as my parents have allowed it and I was wondering if it was good to keep him/her in a playpen but then when I’m home I’ll let them free Rome in my room

Do you have a video on introducing other animals. I have 4 rescue ferrets and I can’t think of a good way to introduce my dog they free range the whole house accept from the living room and kitchen because of the dog but I want them to go everywhere.

i’m very scared that my huge dog will step on my 2 ferrets once i get them. i was thinking if i let them out all day even when i’m gone at school i could make a diy diper but i’ve been reading about it. i don’t think it’s super good for them. i really want my mom to know that ferrets are just like cats and don’t have to be caged up but she thinks that they do. but because there mine, i’m going to let them roam all over the house but i’m really scared and worried that my dog will step on ollie or daisy. yes i already have names for them😂 i’m sorry this is so long i just really wanted to thank you for all of the helpful videos you’ve made about ferrets. it makes me really happy to know that you don’t need a cage for ferrets. ❣️✨

Hey Bryn, I’m in SA and I can’t do a raw diet... so I would like to know what I could feed when I get my ferrets? Thanks! ❤︎

I try not to keep my ferret caged in but for right now I have to. Just! Until I get the ac unit installed upstairs

I made a ferret room. It's my living room that I gated off and it's all half walls around it. They love it. I do let them run around the whole house a few times a week. I can't block off my basement. It's my pellet stove it and I can't have them down there. I sit at the basement stairs and play goalie while my boyfriend chases them out of the plants lol sometimes I bring them in my bedroom and I have to take apart my bed now because they've taken half my socks and out them in a place that I can't reach. 😣

I will be getting a ferret very soon and planning to leave him free roaming when I’m at work (I come home for a hour inbetween 8 hour shift) but I’m worried about the litter training will I have to put pads in every corner? Or will he choose one place like a cat litter box? And will they chew through my bed? Please help!

Iv had my 2 ferrets for over a month and they've been free range just got one more I have a songmics cage with no roof it's pretty good actually from Amazon but everytime I try to put them in it they just scratch and scratch cuz there so use to being out .. ! I prefer free range for sure and yes cages are quite expensive do your ferrets use the litter box ? Mine don't and use pee pads

My ferrets try to get into my geckos tanks my albino actually ate one and it’s very stressful She also try’s to bite my dog so it’s so hard to train her and I can’t trust them by themselves And I also can’t let them be by themselves in any room mostly because they either have poisonous Snakes/lizards they also love to bite shoes I honestly don’t know what to do with them :[

What if i just get one ferret and and i play with it everyday then would it get deprest?

Well is ok to keep them beyond free roam bc im thinking of getting a ferret but no cage at all (unless for travel) just a bed m food & water dish like my dog

Man, this video was eye-opening. I have a boy of 9 months. He was sitting in cage for almost all day until he was neutered, now he is free roaming (minus time I am not at home or at night), but he is getting bored pretty quickly. 1-1.5hr is his time of play, then he just does nothing, lying on floor and yawning. I try to change his toys every noun and then, but he doesn't seem to care. I live alone and have one pet. Is he just lonely or he got used to cage life?

I'm a first time ferret owner with two sweet baby girls, who have been with us for about a month now. We started letting them free roam almost full time after about a week, and it's been great for them. They wake up, I let them out. They only go back in when I leave or before bed. I leave the cages bottom door open in case they need back in for litter, and sometimes they put themselves away for a nap in there...although they seem to prefer under my dresser, or my kid's laundry pile. XD I have had great difficulty keeping them out from under the dishwasher, though, if anyone has tips on that?

hey i live on a farm and my parents dont want to let the ferrets free roam so do you think just my room would be fine with me take them out of my room for an hour or two or should i try to convinse my parent to ferret proff the whole house (we have lots of places them could get out of and thats why my parents want them to stayt in my room) but my room is pretty big

any one else just realize that theat the wood in the background she has as almost every thumbnail is a unbought stock image it still has watermark

I agree that u should free range your ferret I want one and want to do that and my dad said we need a cage I will show him this vid

I want to get a larger cage for my ferrets but I dont have the space for that and I can't let them freeze range cause my dogs would try and eat them😢😢😢

If i get two ferrets would it be ok to let them raom around all of a two story hiuse?

Oi just found out how amazing ferrets are. And I really want one and have been researching care and how you take care of them. But I cant get one

I have a cage saved in my amazon cart that I am thinking about buying for my soon to be ferret. I was wondering how or if I’d be able to send you a picture of it somehow to get your ideas on if it’s a good cage or not. Also my ferret would be out most of the time and would only be in his cage during school hours.

Hi I just took in 4 ferrets I have everything I need but did I make the right decision

I can’t afford a giant ferret nation cage but I have been wanting to get a ferret. Can I get a bird cage and put like bigggg hammocks as like a floor and smaller hammocks for extra?

My babies are getting their own bedroom when I move in the spring! They get alot of free range time as is but I'm hoping to let them have their own room so they can roam freely in their room while I'm in class. I notice when they get free roaming time they use up so much energy and they sleep in races that they are happy in, like my bed!

0:27 Le ferret: *Le sniff sniff some cookies*

Is the ferplast ferret tower two story ferret cage good???

Is it okay if I play with them a little in the morning let them free roam and leave the cage open for 7 hours while I’m at school

Do u not worry about the amount of daylight ur ferrets get?

Me buys 6ft cage with 5 big levels that they spend barely any time in for $200 and then sees tiny cages for $198 that’s so bad!!!

What are some affordable good cages

Is the furplast ferret cage okay im a beginner with ferrets and would like to know

Hi,I've seen all of your videos, Im getting the Cage, the toys and the food you recommended, but I would like only to get one.I'm capble of giving 7-8 hours a day of free, controlled roam a day, I have a really calm and playful kitten that always treats other animals in a good way.Should I get 2 ferrets anyways?Can a Cat be a substitute for another ferret?Hope you make a video about it

Are there any cages you would recommend to get for two ferrets?

The sound is so low, love ur videos but can u please adjust the sound?

I would love to do free roam but they are not 100% litter trained 😥

Someday I want a free range home. Right now, our home isn't safe for them to free range. :/

Just like hamsters cal u do a bin cage plzz list a video on cheap cage ideas like under a 100 or so plzz

Do ferrets HAVE to have a companion?

My Rose is in when at work... I live in a bachelor that is shared with two orange male cats one her age four Sid and Max who is fifteen. I Ferret proof and have tons of play toys and cat trees tunnels.... I have two litter boxes plastic corner with metal grates... I use Bounty Towel... A rat two storey they are like a ferret nation just smaller bars.... Just to let all know ferrets SLEEP AND NEED 17 HOURS Ferret for Dummies is a great book and a FERRET vet is a must.... hard to find but reg vets have no clue.... Just a heads up yep ferrets are litter trainable. Train is a loose word..... in her home... no prob... outside it WELL..... she does not go on or under the couch well not often.... she goes beside the box or she goes in without me telling her.... it’s hit or miss with ferrets.... clean box or not... ferrets NEED to go every two hours.... remember it’s not their fault.... please do NOT HIT it’s cruel they don’t understand and will become fearful and may unlearn what they do know.... just say NO put them in the box... scruff gently as momma would.... it has to be right away.... and praise them like crazy when they go in the box.... Just a thought..... Bounty under your stove and fridge bottom... pee runs under..... imagine my shock the first time 😝 All the best from Rose 🌹 my first ferret who four year old now. Great videos....

Im going to buy my sister a new cage she's a new ferret owner and got a pet store cage that even my kids said it's way to tiny.. So im just ordering her 1 because them cages are not good for 1 let alone 2 ferrets..

This video is so essential! I had the double ferret nation and still wasn't satified with keeping them in there because they do 100x better without the cage!

I want to free roam my ferrets so bad!!!! I just finished remodeling and decorating their room. I just have some big problems. I adopted my boy ferret at 4 years old and I can tell his owners didn't do anything with him nor let him out. He doesn't want to use the litter box/ diapers for his poop. He is also very selfish and would bite the cat and my other ferret not in a playful way. I'm scared he'll have a hold of my cat or ferret and I won't be home to stop it.

Can I get one ferret?

I REALLY want a ferret but I'm scared I'm not going to be able to give it enough free Rome time

What about Joe the train ferret his cage is big and small

0:13 fish you kinda have to jp Good tips for every type of pet

my ferrets i feel bad for my dad doesn't believe me that shampoo and stuff is bad for them also i dont have a door my house is no where near ferret proof and i have the first cage that you did i feel bad its from the previous ownor who was a teacher and they got about 30 mins of play a day, and they are only aloud out of the cage when im in my room cuz my parents took my door away cuz i shut it too much so i have a baby gate and meko my male ferret can climb the gate and my parents refuse to give me my door back

Highest price but items are cheap metal and plastic bendy I’ll make a place for my ferret in my room

My ferrets don't have a house they live free roam around the house like a dog.

what about your other pets? like dogs
