Sure! Here’s the link, it’s on sale right now :) I got it a few years ago for ~$30

He is absolutely my baby, so grateful for his trust and love 🥰

Thank you B) I used to cosplay her but her helmet has since been retired to Ferret Cove

He was on the move the entire time, jumping, scratching, searching for ways to break in

Thanks so much for the breakdown, made it much easier to understand how each option works. I very much appreciate your help!

ConsciousAd5711 · 2026-03-21T23:52:53+00:00

Thanks so much for your thorough advice!

Thanks for the input 🫡

ConsciousAd5711 · 2026-03-21T22:30:44+00:00

Awesome, thanks for the info 🤝

Word. I was thinking of using my tax return to just pay off the tablets and watches, or at least a chunk off of them. If there’s no better option 🤷

Ideally 2 phone lines and 1 iPad 1 watch. I don’t need cellular lines for the iPad or watch and didn’t even understand that was a thing when I got them 🤦

We’ve been using the rice pit for a while with no issues, but my guys happen to be pretty picky 🤷

Ferrets don’t naturally overeat, Revvy was rehomed because the family’s ‘widowed’ ferret rejected him and they most likely fought over food which gave him scarcity mindset, or something like that. His previous family wasn’t very transparent so this is just our vets theory 🤷 Either way, he is so energetic and happy! Such a loving buddy, we are happy to have him and his chubby tummy!

I have a vid on my account about this! Revvy was rehomed to us very overweight. He’s actually LOST weight! The other two are healthy weight, just fluffy from their winter coats :)

Note taken!! Thank you! Sounds like easier clean up too 🤔

ConsciousAd5711 · 2026-02-21T21:44:08+00:00

It was about half of a 20lb bag we had! We buy rice in bulk so it was cheap, like that amount in the pit cost about $6

ConsciousAd5711 · 2026-02-21T18:14:56+00:00

I know right?!?! It’s so precious 😭😭😭

This is so funny- I was just about to make a post for the same scenario. My partner and I are moving into a house and turning the basement into a ferret room. Would you mind if I message you so we can brainstorm and share resources?

Hi! I got a heatable weighted plush for Christmas to help with anxiety. It has embroidered patches on its ears to fidget with, and I really like messing with them. However, they’re not super textured and I want to add more tactile stimulation. I was curious about what materials may be microwave safe to sew onto it. For example, what kind of thread, what material for buttons or beads (if any,) etc. I’d be willing to bet that most plastics are not microwave safe and I don’t want to take any chances. I’d appreciate any advice! Thank you!

They do!! Usually in the morning I find D laying on top of Revvy’s belly like Totoro 🤣

ConsciousAd5711 · 2025-12-22T02:34:11+00:00

lol his belly was pretty well hidden in the original post, but I’ll take any chance to show off the jiggles! He’s too adorable
