My family used a rabbit cage for awhile but we soon got a proper ferret cage to let them play in. It’s an appropriate type of cage that has 3 levels and I was happy that the rabbit cage was only temporary till we got an appropriate one that’s large enough for them to like to be in because they would have to spend a fair amount of time to spend in the cage and being let out two hours a day. They love the cage and they love to sleep in it. I’m happy to know that someone who has experience with ferrets to know how to keep them happy and healthy. It’s possible to give them a good life inside your comfy home. Ferrets need special care because they aren’t like a cat or a dog, always do your research before adopting a ferret, learn their behaviors and make sure to properly bond with them.
this is late, but anyone who sees this: you NEED two. they are pack animals. if you cannot afford 2, don't get any. no matter how much time you spend with it, it's not the same as them having a buddy of their own kind.
This video makes me miss my ferret my parents had when i was around 3 years old. His name was Dakota. He would sit in your lap and we had this little ball that he would love to roll around in. He was very laid back and not as hyper as most pther ferrets ive seen.
I have 2 given too me.. An old wire cage that is hard to clean.. and a new stack-able that COULD be easier to clean if the ferrets did not poop on every shelf including near the food...lets call it impossible to keep clean. Both batches of Ferrets lived in both. moved and went to newer one.. Cleaning and getting the guys to bring back wire and hammock heaven. Cleaning from a chair.. Life will be better.
hey there I'm thinking of getting a rescue ferret, I have this massive dog crate that I could add platforms and hammocks to and I have a nice big room where they can play and stay safe while I'm at school. do you think this is suitable??
My ferrets have a huge Critter nation cage we mess up we got critter nation cage instead of a ferret nation the have the cage u can connect to another the have two of them and they also get a full room too
mitty ferret nation the bars are different so they can’t climb it and then critter nation the ferrets can climb it but it’s basically the same cage but the bars are different
I have a question would a cat cage that DOES have ramps work the measurements are 67in high 22in wide and 33in long? With two platforms not included the bottom
I have a small play pen with my ferret cage together the cage is inside but yeah they’re loose all the time they have a whole room to themselves so they’re fine lol
I live alone and my ferret has a huge cage. However, im going to my parents for 5 days at christmas. Ive just got my fuzzbutt a guinea pig size cage for those few days while im home as i cant get his cage here there. Will he be chill for those few days? Especially if im walking him 4/5 times a day
It's not ideal, but if it's your absolute only option they'll be okay. Not happy. but okay. Make sure to give them lots of attention, try to play with them to get them tired so they'll go to sleep soon after getting in the cage
I live in Alabama which is a very hot state during the summertime and I was wondering if they can be taken outside for walks just as frequently I would take him in fall? In summertime the temperature stays about 90-100 degrees Fahrenheit. I have only had my ferret 2 weeks and I've never thought about the question until now.
Yes, what Kyra and Michelle shared is correct-- be very very mindful of heat. These little guys overheat quickly and when health goes down, they go down very very quickly. If you see: panting, lethargy, a bright red nose and dark red foot pads, and finally, unconsciousness and death, if not treated quickly. If your ferret does get overheated, cradle his head with a cool wet rag and cover your ferret's torso and legs with a cool, wet towel.
Well, rip me. I though maybe i could have a chance of getting a ferret seen as i have a cage thats so big it could fit 2 macaws in it and it has little toys in it and little dens that the ferrets would love. But since it didnt have floors i was thinking "oh i could make some!" And then i saw that its best to have square opening in it, mine are the long thin ones. If that even makes sence 😂 ive wanted a ferret for like 3 years now, looks like all hopes lost until i get my own job and all that stuff... rip 😣
Hey Capt, I made a video about some behavioural issues I’m having with a new ferret and was wondering if you could give me a hand. Its the only video on my channel, please consider checking it out.
Ahh I thought you’d never reply! I actually took the video down because I fixed it the problem. She was just being really standoffish and bite-y, and I realized it was because she was in a new environment. Thanks for replying though!
Haha lol die sind beide zu klein ! Entweder freie wohnungshaltung , rießen Käfig 10 Quadratmeter! Mit viel Beschäftigung! Oder draußen 15 Quadratmeter! Und nieeemaaaals alleine!
I got that reference for once, I think. My friend played the 3d animated with ships in space movie on netflix or something and it was pretty good. Did I get it right?
You hold your ferrets the wrong way and you are super rough with you were flinging them around on that blanket and you yanked that toy on a stick from them from there teeth
the way you say “cat snakes” so naturally is amazing
Haha why thank you!
do you actually talk like that
The 3 floor cages are expensive as hell but ill do what i have to do
IcE wALLow CoMe we don’t have them in sweden

In the begging , the ferret was like:
“Wussup?”
cat snakes+ Steve Harington= perfect boy
"If you can't find anything that's suitable for a ferret for less than the cost of a ferret nation cage, *_you might want to start DYING."_*
Just try kaytee ferret home plus
A good example is a Ferret Nation Cage! I hope you like the one example that I told you!
It is a good example!
I'm getting a ferret is it bad if I only get one or should I get two.
Its much better to get two but if you spend heaps of time with them and got lots of free time i'm sure one will be fine
2 Ferrets are 2's only..
It depends on the ferrets if they are social or not
You can have one, but it would have to be played with everyday and such as if another ferret was with it
this is late, but anyone who sees this: you NEED two. they are pack animals. if you cannot afford 2, don't get any. no matter how much time you spend with it, it's not the same as them having a buddy of their own kind.
Can't ferrets get their paws stuck in the little bars
Kinda but not if u have small wire spacing so they cant

i would buy the Critter Nation cages, but they’re WAY too expensive.

I'd go for a larger cage if you can
Is it okay for two ferrets to shwre a litter box
You have a soothing voice

I would love to see a video on how to build your on ferret cage!
Could I keep my hamster and ferret in the same room ? My hamster has a tank would a ferret try to get into it?

I used an extra large dog cage with my ferrets being virtually 100% free-roam.
“U might want to start *dying* “
Me: oh did that
I have a small play pen with my ferret cage together the cage is inside but yeah they’re loose all the time they have a whole room to themselves so they’re fine lol
That sounds about right!
Cpt Jack Ferret Lol yeah

Cpt Jack Ferret great. He is free roam so he is out and about most of the day. The cage is only really to sleep in. Thanks :)

You should also do a dustfinger cosplay, he has a pet ferret too!
You see I'm not sure how I could manage that really. Ferrets are only awake for so long
I love his voice
Me
To

Great tips! Make your furry friends comfy and safe!

Hey I tried to find your video but I can't find it on your channel. Could you message me a link to cptjackferret@gmail.com?
Ahh I thought you’d never reply! I actually took the video down because I fixed it the problem. She was just being really standoffish and bite-y, and I realized it was because she was in a new environment. Thanks for replying though!
I would watch all your videos but your voice tho
Sorry might have hammed it up a bit, but most of the time my presenting voice isn't far from my normal speaking voice.
@@CptJackFerret Sorry, I was being a bum. Nice voice mate, your videos are really well done! thanks! (:
Talking about the correct cage for ferrets meanwhile keeping yours in an unsuitable one?? Uhh
Because he said his are free roaming, it's more like a hideout for them
I just got a new ferret i have 2 now I used to single Critter Nation cage I think it's called but they're all all day
Yeah I'd be careful with something smaller like that
Haha lol die sind beide zu klein ! Entweder freie wohnungshaltung , rießen Käfig 10 Quadratmeter! Mit viel Beschäftigung! Oder draußen 15 Quadratmeter! Und nieeemaaaals alleine!
Do you talk like that you sound like action figure
carpet shark
Captain jack harkness

Cpt Jack Ferret doctor who. John barrowman
I am from the future and i can tell you that Jack dies
Very uninformative!
why do u talk like that 😂
You hold your ferrets the wrong way and you are super rough with you were flinging them around on that blanket and you yanked that toy on a stick from them from there teeth
Please do not have a room like this for your ferret they will end up with a blockage or something horrible
