Your Ferret …. Tips - Tricks - Training - Health and Feeding

Its wiser to keep your pet ferret and your working ferret... as separate animals, as they are bred and trained for totally different reasons.

There are so many excellent books and so much good information available through the internet that I thought I would try and clarify some of the information that was either wrong or out of date. So here is some of my ideas in print, and hopefully they will show you up to date methods of how to look after a ferret, from deciding which colour, or which sex you want.

To being able to train your chosen little friend to become a better companion.

For ease of use I have broken the book down into the following chapters.

Chapter 1 - Ferret proofing your home
Chapter 2 - Ferret Cages
Chapter 3 - What Type/Age of Ferret
Chapter 4 – Feeding
Chapter 5 – Training
Chapter 6 – Playing
Chapter 7 - Ferret Health Care
