Cage

Ferret Cage Knowledge Base

Ferret cage? Another ferret question- sorries! I have been reading up endlessly on ferrets and will probably be buying one very soon. I have read website after website, and checked out (or bought) a couple of books, but one thing that I keep getting different answers for is ferret cages. I will only be having one ferret (at least for now), and need to know everything that has to do with ferret cages. Size, bedding, litter box, water bottle; what kind of cage is the best, how many ramps? Does anyone have a specific cage they would reccomend? Pictures of ferret cages already made up would be great! Don't get me wrong, I know the basics and would probably be just fine with what I know, but extra help doesn't hurt. ;) Another side note is that I won't need to keep my ferret in his or her cage for very long, somebody is always home (I usually always am) and will be able to keep an eye on it. Also- how many litter pans should I buy for out of the cage, and what litter is best?

Is it okay that i got rid of my ferret cage? i have 2 ferrets that are almost a year old. I got rid of the cage because it took up a lot of room and they hated it! they would always claw to get out. so i pretty much turned my room into a cage. It's ferret-proof, the door locks, and they always use the bathroom in the same corner (they are well trained). is it okay that i dont have a cage for them? or is this something that is necessary for growing up?
What is a good ferret cage for my two fuzzies? I have two ferrets, who are now 5 and 6 years old. Right now they're living in a fairly large Super Pets Deluxe Care Home. It's very well made and I havn't had any problems with the cage. The only issue is that it's beginning to seem a bit crowded for my weasels, so I've been looking for a larger cage with equal sturdiness, safety, and reliability. The Ferret Nation cage has caught my attention and I've read so many great reviews about it. The only things holding me back are the wire ramps and floor. My older ferret has a very petite build and I'm worried that her feet will get caught in the bars of the ramps and she'll injure herself. Also, I'm worried that the wire floor will hurt their feet and create messes. My ferrets are litter trained, but they tend to go outside the box too. I think the wire floor will be very messy for that reason. Right now I have Carefresh Bedding in the bottom of their cage so it is not an issue. If anyone has any recommendations, please let me know :)

Any ideas as to how I could turn this into a humane squirrel trap? Thanks!

What small animal can live in a 2x2x2 ferret cage? (besides a ferret, read inside)? I have been wanting a small new small animal for a little bit, and now I have a 2x2 ferret cage that I am wanting to put something in when I buy the ferret a new cage. I paid 100 dollars for it (it was a starter kit, with cage, food, litter box, water bottle, etc, but still... I paid 100 dollars and now I will have an empty cage taking up space) (I'm not just getting the animal because I want to fill space, that is one reason, yes, but I also have been wanting a new pet too) Everyone tells me 2x2 is too small for a guinea pig, is there any pet that can live in there? I can't get a chinchilla because 1) they are a little too expensive for my tastes and 2) even if I did want to pay upwards of 300 dollars for one, there are no breeders or petstores or rescues in my area and I can't get my parents to travel. the bar spacing is 1inch by 3 inches, so a rat is pretty much out of the question (I have a female rat right now, so I know she'd go right through it.)

Anyways, if anyone used these holes for a better idea, let me know!

When do I know that it is safe to put my new ferret in the same cage as my established ferret? I have had my established ferret Oscar for about 9 months, he is now 1 year old. I bought a new ferret to keep him company, Lola, 3 months old. Oscar will hiss at her every once in a while when they are out playing. Sometimes I will see Oscar biting Lola and it seems like they are just playing because Lola never screams. So are there any signs that it is safe to keep them in the same cage?

How do I keep my ferret from pooping on the levels of a multi-level cage? My wife and I recently bought a ferret and just bought a multi-level cage with four levels including the bottom with his bedding. He started out using the restroom on one side of his bedding just like usual, but here lately he has mainly been using the different levels. Are there any ways we can fix this problem? We have a litter pan and had it in his old cage, but he did not like it very well and dug in it and rarely used it, so I don't know if this could fix it?

Would a 2x2x2 ferret cage be okay for a guinea pig? There is only one level, so the living space is basically 2'x2' but I will leave the wire part on because the pan is only like 6 inches deep and so a piggy would be able to climb out. I will buy lots of toys and an igloo and food bowl and stuff and it already has a water bottle. My ferret is too energetic for the cage now that the second level ledge broke, he just sleeps all day if I keep him in it, which I only do if I have to be out all day, which is rare, otherwise he plays in my room all day from 10am to 9pm. I am wanting a Guinea pig and was wondering if I could recycle Sonny's cage when I buy him a new 4 level one or if I would have to get a new one.

Building a ferret cage, help with pricing? the dimensions are 36.5' x 2' x 2' I figured out how much the wood I'm using will cost roughly, I just can't seem to find a price for some kind of mesh wiring, I'm thinking something with 1cm x 1cm sized squares or something like that. Can I buy that at home depot? The wood I'm using is 2"x3" and I'll need about 5. Oh and for the mesh wire i need something that strong/thick enough that i can make a door with it. i actually decided that when i do the floors i'm gonna put down plywood then paint it whatever color i want then put a sheet of plexi glass on top of it.... i might put something on the plexi glass though so the ferrets won't slide...
Why would my ferret chew on her cage? Every day she sits and chews on the plastic of her cage, even when she's out of it. Even with a pile of food in front of her, that she does eat with relish, she will turn to her water dish and gnaw on that for a few minutes. She is passionate about chewing similar items. She's not sick, and she's been doing this for months now. Just wondering why a ferret would do this. O and she's deaf in case that helps.

When we put him in his cage, he fell asleep within 10 minutes. This morning, I woke up to find his cage Destroyed! Litter box Flipped over, food everywhere- and not to mention poop and pee everywhere! Why is he doing this? What Can I do to calm him down?
