This might seem crazy but my ferret escaped last year and I was so sad but at the end of the day one of our neighbors said there was a ferret walking down the street playing with their dog and went to to get us and we found her. She was lost for about 7 hours and most of our small town canceled there plans to look for he and 5 weeks after we found her she got a ferret friend. Btw my ferret that's got lost is named lulu and her friend is bambi the have tones of fin and love to cuddle. Also I love ed tour video

@@TheModernFerret Honestly, it sounds harder. I have a cat and a dog, and generally they don't seem to pose much of a danger to themselves. My dog doesn't seem too interested in things that could be harmful to her, at least since she's been an adult, and although my cat can get everywhere and I often can't find her, again she never seems to pose a danger to herself. My house is a mess, but my pets never seem to end up hurting themselves. My cat walking along the crazy-thin window bottoms (not even really ledges) of second floor windows has definitely scared me, but honestly her balance is so good I don't think she ever would fall. All in all, ferret proofing, at least for my house, seems like a nightmare in a way I've never really had to worry about with my cat or dog.

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.

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.

@stephanierush9061

3 жыл бұрын

The Modern Ferret my husband used a nail gun and fastened planks all along the bottom. It was a pain for sure and sometimes they still find ways to squeeze through, but trying to keep them out in other ways didn’t work so boards it is! And we love our couch so we needed a solution that would stick. The boards have gone through several iterations but we have had this particular set up for a while now so it’s working well enough

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!

WOW what a story! Thanks for sharing - how scary!

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.

@TheModernFerret

3 жыл бұрын

It's very possible to get rid of the smell - here's a video on it! kzread.info/dash/bejne/oWSG3JuoYauTlc4.html (If there is carpet, I recommend getting a large rug so that their oils don't get into the fiber of the landlords carpet)

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.

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

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

LOVE the fitted sheet over the boxspring idea.

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

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.

Those tube tunnels on the walls are everything

Thank you so much!

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)

When is the video of the clear tubbing coming out?

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!

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 🙂!

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.

Hiii , love uour channel

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!! =]

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!

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.

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.

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

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

it was the ferret on the computer with the typing noises for me llol. How did you train them to roll over when you play shoot at them with your finger? I seen it on a different video I am pretty sure it is your video though

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

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!

I have an adjustable on my bed in my bed room where my ferret will be spending most of their time. Any suggestions on how I can keep them safe in my room?

Where did you get your tubing?

I'll be getting a ferret soon, and our bed is built to not need a box spring. It's low to the ground and has wood planks that line the bottom with just a matress. Is there anything I should do to our bed?

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

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.

Any ideas how to close off the gap between the door and floor? We free roam for all rooms but our bed room how can I block that

Hi i just want to know can you use normal sand for your litter box

Hi I need more advice of couch proofing. We have had to throw away multiple couches now because our ferrets climb inside, tear them to shreds, and even poop inside the couches. We always remove the feet and put the couch directly on the floor. However they are able to climb into the couches from the top under the cushions. I can’t find a single couch they cannot climb inside and it’s become extremely frustrating. Thank you.

Where did you get the clear Ferret wall tunnel system

What brand of cat kibbles do you recommend for ferrets?

I'm learning a lot from this video but I have one question! How can I ferret proof any wires they might try to chew?

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

Question: Are they able to jump over a gate/fence? I’m looking up certain gates that they can’t get under. But, my concern is jumping over it. Doing as much research as possible before getting one. I wanted to block my kitchen completely off. The way my house is built, it’s impossible to proof that area. So I’m considering the gate. Also, will they climb up curtains or tablecloths?

Where you explained to ferret proof your dressers I keep my dresser drawers closed all the time but my ferrets are able to climb in through the back I was wondering how I would ferret proof that

I am a really big fan

Where did you guys get your ferret tubes ?

How about underneath furniture with wide spaces like dressers? My dressers all have wide spaces she can crawl underneath. I ordered the doorstopper now so she cant escape from my room. My closet also does not have a door our house is old. What can I do? I get nervous about letting her explore my room. My baby has been home with me a week now :)

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

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