I have seen lots of ferret and pet youtubers make cage cleaning videos and do a not so great job at it. They use the wrong products and don’t clean it throughly. But, you do such a great job! You let the cleaner sit and clean the cage properly. One of the first!

Wow. Normally with ferret videos like this there are tons of things wrong and the cage is too small but not here! Your setup is so cool! And the cage is nice and spacious. Also I love your accent. Also, I got frustrated using blankets in my ferret cage as they were always moved, so I highly recommended buying some cage liners from Etsy. They can’t stash in them then and they match and look super cute.

i have to make sure i have a routine and know what i need to get done! its so helpful for me at least to have a cleaning schedule for the pets so i have set days a week i clean each type of animal cage so it doesn’t get overwhelming all in one day! as for uni life, i don’t really drink so a lot of nights that would be spent going out drinking i stay in and look after my pets 🤣 but i have managed to balance a job with uni life and my pets so it’s not impossible to do other stuff too! and obviously it depends on how demanding your course is. for me this year is super demanding since i’m doing my dissertation, and i’ve had to take a break from my job to get lots of lab work done which i wouldn’t have had the time for with my job! and another thing to consider is where you’re going to be living! if you’re considering taking a pet with you to uni make sure you’re staying somewhere that you’re able to do so! for me in my first year i stayed in halls and there were strictly no pets, but in second year i moved out to the house i’m still currently in which allows them. it can be a lot of work sometimes but i wouldn’t trade my pets for anything, they have really helped my mental health and helped me cope with the stress of uni! 💘🥰

Change the watering thing it’s like a chore for them to get water

I'm pet sitting for my son and they have a ferret they left me instructions on what to do for the dogs and cat but they left out anything for the ferret.

You are so lucky to have ferrets that don’t try to tip their litter box over, and my boy ferret will poop right next to his litter box instead of inside it sometimes and I think it’s because of how tiny it is but I can only find tiny ones that hook onto the cage ! 😂 it’s a pain but I love him anyways

Hi! I've only started watching your channel and I realized love it! I ready want a ferret I've been doing research for so long but I can't quite convince my parents but I'd like to ask where you got your cage since it's alot prettier than the others I've seen, hope you can reply bye!!!

Where did you buy the litter box? I am always using corner litter boxes for three years now, it's very irritating have to zip tie them to the corner. How do you keep them from moving it around?

@MaddieLeonczek

4 жыл бұрын

Delia i got it from pets at home, i think it was their XL cat litter box if i remember correctly! they can’t really move it around since it fits perfectly across the depth of the cage, and also since it’s quite big i can fill it with lots of pellets so it’s heavy. i’ve heard of people bolting their litter boxes to the sides of the cage as well so it can’t be moved around but that must be more difficult to clean it out i imagine x

Hey! Just a question, if the ferrets are litter trained do they still have accidents on the fleece? And how often should I wash it. Any tips?

@MaddieLeonczek

4 жыл бұрын

no, they never have accidents on the fleece! once they’re litter trained they won’t go anywhere else in their cage, and since ferrets don’t like to go toilet where they sleep or eat it’s super easy to litter train them, especially if the rest of their cage is fleece - it’s the same material as their beds so they won’t want to pee/poop on it haha😆 they’re actually super clean that way! how often you change the fleece depends on how many ferrets you have, i just wash mine when it needs it so every 1-2 weeks i’d say! x

spot clean their litter box every day, and as a general rule deep clean the cage every week, but of course this depends on how many ferrets you have, and what bedding you’re using - it may need cleaning more often if you have a lot of ferrets, just to keep any smells down x

You should use water bowls instead of water bottles bc the bottles don’t give as much water that the little guys need! And, it also can mess up their teeth! So..I wouldn’t recommend it! Just a tip!
