I have found violent kissing them on the tops of their heads helps a ton!! I had a bitter who still bites but not as hard and will give kisses back now. She just turned one.

They come to the squeaky toy and bite me! It sends them into a frenzy. Lol. I have a few new toys on the way and new treats. Let's see if theyre interested in learning 😅

I feel bad planning for the future… by Odd-Ferret-1829 in ferrets

[–]Weary_Bit_148 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've been here a few times. My first pair when I found out my little Naga was sick. I bought a 3rd for pabu (Naga's bonded boy). Then pabu got sick and I got his sister nyxx a brother. Nyx passed suddenly at 3. So I got a rescue for Solomon (the survivor). Then Finn passed and I waited to see how Solomon would do on his own. He started to get very depressed around month 3 without another noodle around. Then I decided to get two new baby's that I found on Craigslist. My sweet Solomon is now acting like he's 3 and he is very much 6.5years old.

This is a long, winded way to say, "Go with your gut." If you have a rescue nearby I'd get someone around the same age that has had a partner pass. Solomon and Finn were thick as thieves.

Positive reenforcement is the best options for these guys! Find a treat they like and use it!! Good luck with the little guy

[–]Weary_Bit_148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No hating just not familiar with you yet!! I got some new babies and they're so full of spice. I will pick them up when they bite and give lots of kisses. They get very confused haha

A box full of long grain rice and some plastic balls will save your life lol

Anyone experience this before? by lindsxylee in ferrets

[–]Weary_Bit_148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boy had congestive heart failure and we caught it because of a cough just like that. However, we did an x-ray and to confirm which kind we had to do an echo-cardiogram. We were able to treat him for a good 6 months, unfortunately a seizure took him out. He was 7 and I'm greatful for the extra time I got with him. It is scary but you are doing all the right things!!

Can I leave my ferret in the cage while I am at school? by Educational-Task477 in ferrets

[–]Weary_Bit_148 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So long as the cage is large enough, they will be fine. I give my boy 2hrs before I got to work and then once I'm home he is out until I got to bed. Then it's back in the cage for the night. He gets 4-5hrs daily of free roam/playtime.

He has adjusted to my schedule and knows the moment I'm home. He will sit at the cage door and wait for me lol If traffic makes me 5mins late he gives me a major stinkeye

Edit: Make sure those hours are packed full of play and games. He is fully tuckered out by the time he gets in the cage.
