unsafe ferret toys

21 10:42:29

Question
i am wondering if there are any toys that are potentially dangerous to a ferret.

Answer
Any toys that have loose pieces that the ferret can choke on. No rubber or plastic that can be chewed off. Nothing the ferret can wrap around itself and suffocated such as plastic bags. No foam rubber. If given paper towel rolls be sure to split them long ways to prevent the ferret from getting stuck. Nothing made of wood the ferret could ingest wooden splinters that could damage her stomach and intestines. No rawhide ever can cause severe blockage.

Anything that can be ingested or the ferret can get stuck in it is a guarantee it will happen.


There are many many safe toys for your ferret and simple cheap ways to make homemade one's.
