It is also very popular to keep ferrets as pets. Although ferrets are relatively easy to keep, they are less likely to overeat and sleep longer, but there are still some feeding problems that need to be paid attention to.
Ferrets
1. Pet ferrets like to run around with their owners. However, it should be noted that pet ferrets should wear special pet sable ropes and plain belts when they are outdoors or place them in the playpen. At the same time, please pay attention to other pedestrians and animals. If you live in a denser area, you might consider a pet carry pack.
2. Young ferrets are like puppies and kittens. They like to play with their teeth and explore the surrounding environment during the period when their young teeth are changing to permanent teeth so as to practice their ability to chew food independently. During this time, you have to look at the behavior of the young mink with the right mindset. At the same time, these actions are not aggression, but when it bites something hard (non-food), you should immediately educate it to correct it. The way to correct it is to pat the ferret on the nose and say No ( Can’t). The skills of training and educating puppies and kittens can also be used on young ferrets. Their learning ability is very good. With patience, your pet ferret will meet your expectations.
3. If the food you provide to pet mink is insufficient, it will bite people. You must provide dry feed and water throughout the day because they will rush to ask for food when they see the owner and then bite the owner as a cue. For younger minks, you must also provide an additional moist feed twice a day for licking.
4. The digestive system of pet mink is very short, so pet mink-specific feed should be used when raising pet mink. If pet ferrets eat dog food, cat food, and other pet feed, it will lead to long-term nutritional disorders. If pet ferrets do not eat special feeds, they may die, and leukemia will be found during the autopsy. Pet mink is a carnivore; it needs high meat protein feed to promote the metabolism of its short digestive system. It is highly recommended to use pet mink feed; it is the most suitable pet mink feed and is suitable for pet minks of all ages.
