My mom is VERY hesitant in owning a ferret but I've been trying to ease her into it by bringing up small facts or cute things they do. I convinced her to let me have rats in the past so I think I can convince her to let me get a fluffy slinky boi :') wish me luck y'all

    I bought my ferret from a lovely farmer and his wife. They bred them but their ferrets were all lovely well loved pets. Once a female had a litter they had them done to stop them breeding again and didnt die from not breeding. Here in the uk pet stores dont really sell ferrets so the only choice I had was to look to adopt or buy. Adopting turned up nothing so I looked about for responsible breeders

    Pet Supermarket, petstore like PetSmart or Petco, but they usually sell ferrets, usually 2 and usually a male and female together, but if u only buy one, they wont bring in anymore til the last one is sold...its how i got my lil Booba, and hes thriving beautifully. And btw, my lil guy came from Marshall Farms, and hes healthy as can be. I dunno the real T about them, but my babys healthy and had a check by vet before purchase, from the store, and had a complete med history before i even exchanged money. So...this was in NC as well. I have no complaints.

    I got my ferret, Ozzy last year when I was 12. I’m a pretty responsible pet owner, and I did TONS of research before getting him, but I skipped over some of it and obviously made a pretty big mistake. I fed my baby Marshall farms for a while and I am now realizing that in no way should I support the company or continue to feed him the kibble. I have ordered some new food that is highly suggested (can’t quite remember how to spell it) but I hope to get him on a better diet and give him a better life (he was adopted from a rescue)

Here it's a minimum of $85 to just SEE the animal, nevermind the testing and treating them. It's so so important to have money saved up when buying a new animal, especially with uncommon or exotic animals.

    I used to work at Petco and I made it a point to let everyone on my team know about safe kibbles to feed that we sold, we don't get paid to promote at Petco-we're just underpaid and not trained and I imagine the same applies to other pet stores. Before owning ferrets I owned hamsters and I guess the hamster community has made it a point to make sure people know not to trust employees because when I first saw a ferret I had no idea what it even was and I still didn't ask the employees at the store!! Haha... I did all the research overnight, bought everything and had it shipped overnight then went to get my first ferret as soon as the store opened!! I felt super bad for impulse buying(because I had only ever adopted animals) but she was the cutest thing in the world to me at that moment. A month later I adopted another ferret that way she would have company, sadly my biggest regret/mistake was purchasing a ferret but I don't regret buying her. Every ferret owner makes mistakes at first and the best thing we can do is learn from them :D

    There's a German brand called Frettchen4You. They make high quality kibble for ferrets, made by experienced and passioned ferret breeders. Also, you don't have to adopt, there's also ferret breeders out there that are very good at what they do. Many european breeders gladly sells to America, to help irradicate Marshalls horrible breeding facilities and make it easier for Americans to get a healthy, good pet whose herritage they can follow back to the very first breeding in their bloodline. A solution to wanting a ferret, but not having the possibiliti to free roam enough - make a ferret room with no cage, or an outdoor aviary where they can run and play as they want :)

    I have heard of that brand, however I am having trouble translating the website. I'm not sure if we are able to order that in America. Yes there are breeders but they are very infrequent in the U.S. many of them are not considered reputable and have bad reputations for one reason or another. I am unaware of any European breeders that would ship an animal to the U.S, we have so many unwanted ferrets here so I wanted to promote that in the video. I am no way against breeders, but for ferrets we have such an influx in the shelters right now.

She's such a good breeder, but I am aware that many only breed for profits and don't do enough for the health part of the blood lines. We luckily rarely have ferrets in shelters over here, probably because most ferrets are sold directly from breeders with contracts stating that you will return them to the breeder should you be unable to keep them at some point :)

    @@louisenielsen7106 I have heard the breeders overseas are far superior. Here in the upper east coast of U.S. we have no breeders. There are some in PA but they rarely have litters. Most breeders have been retiring / phasing out. There's an angora breeder in NC (like 15 hours away) but they have somewhat of a cloudy reputation. Very hard to find! However in all surrounding shelters there are many pairs and even trios of ferrets looking for homes.

There's a very reputable angora breeder in the UK, but angora is a very tricky thing to breed as they can't nurse their kits themself, and can come with a variety of health problems if not done right. So I would always recommend angoras from breeders that allows you to visit and gladly shows parents and other ferrets from the bloodline to you 🙂

    just let them know that the musk they emit is like any animal smell, if they are really worried about them being really smelly add an air purifier to your budget. it can be pricey but if it’s what you have to do you have to do it. if it’s a fact about other pets and ferrets getting hurt from each other than ferrets can wait. i started on trying to get a hamster probably when i was a little older than you are, and it took almost a year to convince them. just because i got my dream pet doesn’t always mean you or others will, it’s sad but true.

    Growing up my husband had 6 or 7 ferrets. He wound up moving to the basement so the ferrets had their room to free roam all day and then they were only in the cage at night or during cleanings. He absolutely loves them. However his friend recently impulse bought 2 ferrets because he saw them and he had nothing prepared for them. It was horrible. I was so mad and frustrated he didn’t research. My husband then spent hours telling him what he needed to get for the ferrets like a big cage and litter box and the food they eat. It was a disaster and thankfully he has listened to my husbands advice and followed his instructions. Ferrets are amazing fun animals but they are mischievous and love to get into trouble.

(I usually would have someone watch them though, but just in case) also, I'd like to mention, check for lumps on your ferrets tails, towards the end. Or lumps in general. I found out my ferret had a chordoma, and I'd had never heard of it until a random vid in my feed popped up. I just had thought his tail was bony, mistake.
