What a wonderful boy. I've trained my ferrets to go in litter boxes and on pee pads. In the cage, they're 100% good with the boxes. Outside the cage, they go on the pads about 80% of the time. Still lots of messes to clean up. I definitely cannot get them to go on command though hahaha!

Of course it only works after getting up if they need to go to the toilet. Its like in our case. How many times the doctor asks for a sample of urne and you think "How am i going to squeeze it out as i dont need to go right now" :-)

What a harsh word. It depends on the relation beween man and animal. If the bond is strong then the animal will understand you by using the same words for example, or if you are willing to train the animal by using a clicker or a reward then it might work. If the chemistry does not fit then it might not work either way. When we were caretaking ferrets of other owners we had some who were totally unapproachable maybe due to the new environment. I have discoveréd some i cant get along with but imho its mostly the experience or trauma of the animal and his character which is totally opposite to mine.

@Heavenly_Ferrets I have trained mine out of most of their bad habits. But there's some they still refuse to do, especially when it comes to potty etiquette. They are very stubborn and will actively do things with full knowledge I'm going to try and scruff them or spray water at them to give some kind of deterrent. My white sable will stare at me right in the eyes, and I mean he twists to ensure full eye contact! Then decide he wants to poop NOT on the puppy pads I have in every corner of the room but instead on whatever he can climb. It's infuriating how he leaves presents on my writing chair. If I can stop him in time he'll go to the corner in defeat. I give plenty of attention so I know he's not baiting me. He's just so insistent though and no matter how much I try to talk his language or give treat reinforcement he just won't willingly use the pads. I also tried litter with different mediums like cat pellets, straw, wood chips, and even sand but they use it as bedding or as something to play in. They even hate their dig box I spent like 80 bucks on! I just don't know what makes them happy at this point. T~T

@@keosniper I am sorry to hear about these problems but i find myself not in a position for any recommendation anonymously out of the distance. Every animal has its character and maybe your sable ferret has an aversion against these toilets, maybe he did had a bad experience using them (just maybe.....). The trick with water spraying only wolks to cool them off if they overdid something. Of course there were ferrets that i couldnt get use to too, mainly those who just came by to be taken care of for the holidays of their owners. Quite aggressive ones, too. We had dozens of them, some of them totally psychopaths. But my personal ferrets, they were something else as there is this strong bond between us that they know what i am talking about. They dont necessarily understand each word but i modulate my voice also so that they are aware if its good or bad. Its like reading your thoughts. T But i would never say that i educated them. You will see in "My best friend Norris" how that special bond has been made.
