Question
HI,

  Is it okay to give my ferret kitten food because my local petstore said no but soo many websites say that you can!  I need some help


p.s also can i use babyshampoo on ferrets or do i have to use ferret shampoo?

Answer
Hello Des


Yes you can feed your ferret kitten food but it has to be a high quailty brand so that its just as good as ferret food, ferret shampoo is by far the best thing to bath your ferret with because baby shampoo really drysout there skin and shouldnt be used also dont bath them more then neeed or they'll smell worse a bath every two or three months is great unless they roll around in dirt or something.
