Can this be used for Ferrets as well?

I haven't had a ferret but I've had friends who have and from what I've seen this could easily be used for ferrets. the only problem I have had out of mine is that the metal grate comes out because my guinea pig digs around and it comes up. so i just took it out. I still stuff the hay down in the back of it though because she just reaches in and pulls it all out.

I've never had a ferret as a pet but I think it would be. It's plenty big for our two grown guinea pigs.

I've no experience with ferrets, but I used it for my kitten after he was neutered and declawed. It worked, but I didn't love it, if that makes sense! It did help with urine smell though, so that's a plus. But my cat like to play with/chew on the pellets :/ Have you tried the shredded cardboard - that stuff was awesome when we had guinea pigs! Good luck!

It's very very small. We bought it for two guinea pigs and it's not large enough for them. I think a ferret could escape from it very easily. My opinion is no! Waste of $.

I have 2 rats in it currently and have had ferrets before(not in this cage). I really do not think that would work very well. Its pretty small for a ferret and not sure if the platforms would even support the weight.....

It is possible, however the bottom floor pieces kind of a support for the shape of the cage. And if the ferrets get to the drawer they can kick out the drawer and get out of the bottom of the cage. Or at least the small ones can. I would suggest leaving the bottom wire piece in because the drawer is meant for cleaning up things like food spills and for dander.

I would say no. We had Guinea Pigs and they were a little bigger than my ferret. Plus a ferret naturally climbs through things. Not sure my guinea pigs would have done that. Buy a dryer hose and see if they climb through the hose. I hooked it up to an big empty box. Ferret loves slithering through it. I can only recommend Octo-Play for ferrets since I no longer have a guinea pig.

I would think not. The ramps and floors are not very strong. Works well for my gerbils, but they do knock off the ramps often. When washing, the floors fall off easy, although when attached to the tank, they seem to hold up. I do not know how much ferrets weigh, but I am sure they are much heavier than gerbils. The ramps are narrow also. I would look for something made for ferrets. Hope this helps.

Yes, it's big enough for now, but once your ferret grows to maturity (and it doesn't take long) the cage will seem small. You'd be better off investing in a larger cage right away.

This pen should only be used for supervised playing outside. my ferrets were older and never attempted to escape. Ferrets as you know can get out of most enclosures. Its great for traveling too give the guys a place to stretch their legs and have some room to move. Netting is not chew proof.

I haven't used it with ferrets but I have with a rabbit and a cat. I've read, at least where rabbits are concerned, that pine can possibly cause issues with their kidneys so I chose to go a different route. It definitely works well, for the rabbit and for the cat. For the cat, this sort of paper pellet litter is far superior to any other type I've used. It's a better value as well.

I believe it would be fine for a ferret of that age, but I probably wouldn't use it for a full grown ferret. I have four rats in mine comfortably. The cage is easy to clean and maintain, my only complaint are that the bars are a little weak. I broke one loose just picking up the cage. Hope this helps

I don't have a ferret, but suspect that since they are quite weasley, it is possible for one to get out. There are mesh vents on 3 sides which could be chewed by a ferret. I would suggest a hard cat carrier with a metal door.

Idk how wide the spaces are but it should be good for ferret. I put my 8 week old chihuahua in it and he couldn't get out. I don't know how big ferrets get

It would be more rectangular, but it does not provide a lot of space no matter how you shape it. You would need to buy the add ons to have enough space, I found it to be small for even just one ferret.

It might, but I believe ferrets could climb out of this enclosure. I currently use it for a rabbit. We also use the canvas base that is available to keep the floors clean. It is compact and easy to setup.

I got this from my ferret and it is working great for him he does like to chew on the sippers cause as a rubber casing on it some stitches come out from him scratching at it when I close it for a few minutes but if I keep it open he does not scratch at it he likes Pop his head out and look at everybody's I think this would work great for ferret but not for like of vet carrier in this works great for me bring him around town with me
