How soon after you get a ferret from the pet store should you take it to a vet? I got my ferret about two months ago from the pet store. In the next year, I will be moving at least twice, maybe more and was hoping to wait to find a vet until I am settled so my ferret can get used to one vet. I do not have any other pets and my ferret only goes outside sometimes. Should I just get him checked out and vaccinated now so I don't have to worry about it for a year or is it not a big deal unless I notice a change that needs to be addressed?

I don't think the ferret food the pet store recommended is very good for my ferrets. What do you feed yours?

I am bringing them in next week...should I listen to her recommendations? One of my ferrets seems to have a bird seed like poop every couple days....

Child bit by pet store ferret, doctor is rude? Two days ago my 6 year old was bit by a ferret at a pets store. The ferret came from Marshall Ferret fam. It was playing and lightly nipped her nose. It bled just a little bit. i know the ferret hasnt been vaccinated from rabies because we just bought a ferret from the same store two months ago. I have been doing research and have found that ferrets dont really get rabies and the ferrets have been in doors away from other animals including wild animals. We called the dr to check with him and after waiting all day he calls us back to say that she needs to come in, he called after the office was closed. He said she needs rabies shots and if we dont do it he will call CPS and have her taken away. I saw my cousin go through the shots after he was bit by a bat, I don't want to see my 6 year go through the same thing but can not get any answers about it and the doctor is forcing us into this. Any one know of any reputable sites that I can print info from, or someone to call? The local health dept. has just seized the ferret and has placed it under observation. They will detemine the need for shots for my child after the observation . thanks for your help.
HELP! Pet store fed FERRET live mice, won't eat dry food?? I just bought a ferret who looked extremely lonely at a pet store today. Once i brought him home i inrtoduced him to my other ferret and gave him a bowl of food and water he walked away and from it instantly. I figured he would come back to it later and was to overwhelmed with being new. Then, I noticed later that the ferret was not eating any of the dry ferret food STILL that i had given him which i feed to my first ferret. Later, my new ferret became excited and went to the bathroom on my bathroom floor i cleaned it up and noticed that there were bones in his feces. I realized that the pet store had been feeding him live mice rather then dry processed ferret food. The problem is he does not know to eat the dry food and i live in house full of vegetarians. There is no meat that i could give my ferret? What can i do to get him to eat the dry food?? I am willing to purchase meat for the ferret but, will he even know to eat that considering he is used to live mice??? It has been 12 hours and my ferret is yet to eat! what is so unbelievable about my ferret having bones in his feces? i do not think you are learning much in your bio classes haha...i was in shock to but i'm positive that there were bones and fur in his poo...

Should we return the ferret to the store? My bf and I just bought a ferret from Petco yesterday! We did our research and then some. We bought the products. We made the apartment ready. We were very nervous and we took a long time to think about it and even in the store. Finally we got him and brought him home. We set up everything and put out food. He needs to be potty trained. That's really all. We've been asking questions all day on ferrets and now my bf is getting nervous and thinks maybe this was a bad idea. We have a cat and we live in a nice sized apartment. Our car seems fine with him. I'm not sure what to do. We have a 15 day guarantee, which means we can return the pet, the products, the cage, everything with no question. I wanted a ferret. I did. But I want my bf to happy with our decisions. We're worried most that we might bored or not want to play with him some days and we can't afford 2 of them! What should we do? We don't have 2 of them. But every says we should!

Attacked at a pet store by a ferret - can we take action? Ok, so seriously....my husband and daughter were bit really bad by ferrets at a pet store tonight. We own 2 and have never seen ferrets behave like this before. We stop in the pet store all the time to play with the babies. These ferrets latched on to their fingers so bad that it drew blood. My daughter had to smack it to get it to let go and my husband had to squeeze its jaws only for it to let go and then thrash for another finger. The pet store said they switched breeders...i think they have inbred ferrets! Can we take any kind of action against the store? They were so apologetic and said they've been having problems with this bunch, but never offered anything more than a band-aid. Let's just say too that if it had my kids finger as bad as it had my husbands she would've been screaming bloody murder!!! ???? This was a Petland where they let you handle the animals... By action i meant suing or coupons or something bc we shop there for the ferrets we already have. We've never seen ferrets behave this way...we own 2. I'm just afraid of their figewrs getting infected or possibly rabies.... BTW, aren't people just so quick to judge...we are not on welfare and its nice to see that someone as a sore opinion of those that are. wow...open your mind. Thank you Shelley...now that was a nice answer. This is the first I've used yahoo answers and so far its a so-so experience.
Californians: How many privately owned pet stores in California do you see carry ferret products? What kind of products do you see them carry? How big of a supply do they have? Do you think they should carry supplies for animals that are illegal in the state of California? ( heghogs, ferrets, etc) Hope to open a pet store in Northren CA. in a few months. And I am wondering if I should bother carrying ferret supplies or not. Ferrets are illegal in the state of California. But, alot of pet stores carry supplies for them.
which is better, adopting a ferret or buying one at a pet store? My boyfriend and I have been researching ferrets and he wants to get me on for my birthday, we've read that adopting is better, however, the ferret sanctuary here where we live has a very few selections of ferrets and most of them are special needs. We haven't gone into the sanctuary yet ( due to the fact walk-ins are not welcome ) so i do think they have more ferrets, i talked to the owner of the sanctuary and she seemed a little rude, i'm 16 years old and my boyfriend is 18 years old, but I called to ask some information about adopting a ferret, she said that she could only tell me the price which was 75 dollars per ferret but she needed to talk to someone over 17??? i don't understand why should would have to do that, I was just asking for a little background information and she said they need to *interview* us to make sure we are in suitable condition for the ferrets which i totally understand, but she made it seem like there was something wrong with them >_< but anywhoo, can anyone please tell me the PRO'S and CON'S of adopting a ferret & purchasing one from the store. thanks for taking the time to read & answer !! :)
Baby Ferret bought from the pet store.? My husband just got me a baby ferret from petland on Wednesday, he was born on Dec. 14, 2008.

Thanks for any help...

What can I do about my biting ferret? I just got my second ferret today. At the pet store she bit, but not hard at all. At home, she gets along great with my other ferret and she doesn't bite her. But if you pet her, she'll bite you and almost break the skin. The last time she bit, I scruffed her and tapped her nose. Returning her is out of the question. I could not live with myself. Is there any way to stop her biting? BTW, my other ferret, who never bites, is the dominant one.
How do I potty train a ferret? We just got a new female ferret and she doesn't act like she knows how to use a litter pan. We have tried to put her in it when she starts backing up but she just goes wherever she is. She will go in the litter pan but won't go to the litter pan if she needs to go. I did not see a litter pan in her cage at the pet store. We had another ferret and he was like a cat, he just knew to use his pan. This is getting messy.

What is the right kind of food (treats too) to feed my ferret? I live in Sweden and I have trouble finding a good brand of ferret food at pet stores here. I've read that most "ferret foods" are not really made/tested for ferrets and they're mostly just expensive cat food with a ferret on the label. Is there a good brand, actually made for and tested on ferrets, not cats, that i can find online in Europe? Shipping is really expensive, not to mention customs fees/taxes, if I order from the USA. Also, can someone give me ideas on what kind of treats I can feed my little stinky (male 5 months old) that are healthy for him?

How can I handle my ferret without it biting me? I just bought my ferret, she's a female. At the store the clerk had her in his lap and she was calm and allowed him to stroke her. But when I got her home she bit me every time I tried to handle her in any way. I know she needs to get used to me but I don't know how to do that since I can't even touch her. And she's becoming afraid of me because each time she comes to me and bites me I shout no.

If you could direct me to where I would be able to get one in winnipeg or around there that would be great :D

How to introduce kit to older ferret? We've had our first ferret for just under a year, and decided it was time to get him some company. He's about a year and a half old. We just brought home an 11-week old kit from the store, and we're not sure about how to let them interact. We tried to just let them run around, but the older one was flipping the younger onto its back and biting him in the neck. It didn't seem like a healthy situation, but we're not really sure how else to go about this. Any advice?

Are there any kitchen snacks that are okay for our ferret? I am new to ferret ownership. So far we have only given her store food and treats. Is there anything I can give her from my own kitchen that would be safe and healthy for her to eat?
Why does my ferret throw his food on the floor? And eats it on the floor rather then the bowl? Its ferret food, its the same food they fed him in the store when i bought him, but they would add water to it, and mush it up just a little bit, but i thought that they only did it for baby - to younger ferrets, and that older ones could just eat whole pellets. And i dont like adding water to it for two reasons; When its out for a while (im not going to be adding water to it every 10 mins)it dries up, and i get scared and i dont know if he still likes to eat it, and i dont want him to starve. The second reason is, adding water to the food makes my room smell like ferret food all day long... So what can i do? he still eats the food, but he throws it on the floor first making a mess in the cage i have to clean everytime i re-feed him, and i would rather not have to do that anymore.
where can i find a good ferret collar? i would like to keep collars with my phone number on my ferrets just in case something happens and one gets loose (not to mention two of the four look so identical i can't tell them apart if there not right next to each other). but all the collars i have ever bought get scratched to death by the ferrets and i am constantly having to loosen it (when they scratch it it pulls the fibers and tightens it) but all the ferret collars at my local pet stores are all made of the same material. does any one know of a collar made for animals as small as a ferret that won't strangle them over time from them sctratching it.

Would I be able to ship one here, and if not, does anyone know how long an average trip to a store [out of state] and sneaking one back? Do you know how thoroughly they would search the car? Would they just scan over it, or do they literally dig through your stuff?

They are illegeal in CA. How many of you know or knew that Ferrets are illegal in CA.? And if you knew and moved here would you bring your ferret with you or not?
I want to adopt ferrets.. what pet store is okay? There are rarely ferrets at our local animal shelter, and I don't want to adopt from a pet store that supports puppy mills. (Right now I'm leaning towards a Petland in my area.) If I ask the store and they DO buy from mills, they will probably lie or skip around the question. Is there somewhere I can go on the internet to find out what pet store gets their puppies from mills?

What is an inexpensive, but good quality, wet ferret food? Hi, my ferret is currently only eating wet food, because he is recovering from being sick. I'm trying to get him back on dry food, since he is stronger now, but he's not taking to it. So while I attempt that, what is the least expensive, yet still of good quality, wet food I should give him? The nearest pet-specialty store is 1/2 an hour away, so I'd much prefer something I can find at the grocery store or make myself. I've been told you can give ferrets wet cat food, but is that really a good choice? He is 1 1/2 years old. Currently we are giving him Marshalls wet ferret food (which I'm told is not so great for ferrets) but we have to buy that at the specialty store. The reason I ask for an inexpensive kind is because my family doesn't have a lot to spare, but we still want to give him good food. I'm also willing to make it myself (if thats even possible) as long as I can find inexpensive ingredients nearby (like my grocery store) Any help is very much appreciated!
