Ferret-Proofing Your Home

Thursday July 3, 2008
Burt the Ferret © GenGlo Ferrets are very social and need daily time out of their cages for exercise. Because of this, thorough and thoughtful ferret-proofing is an absolute necessity. When ferret-proofing, remember that ferrets are very curious, will chew and swallow things, love cozy enclosed spaces, and have flexible bodies that fit through very small openings. Ferret-proofing is an ongoing task, rather than a one-time chore. Learn more from Exotic Pets Guide, Lianne McLeod DVM.
