In my ferret cage, I have a small litter pan. Could I use a little bit in with the ferret litter or is that not a good idea?

Should work fine, does help control odor and ferrets do sometimes have a strong smell.

I have a friend with a ferret and he tried the same thing and the ferret ended up going anywhere but where the powder was. He went back to using something he got at petsmart for hamsters, I don't remember what the product was though, sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

That would be a lot of litter. Usually about 3-4 inches of litter should go in the box. It depends on how many cats will be using it, how big your litter box is and the frequency you will be cleaning it.What size box will you be using?

Love the size of the cage. We have four cages for 5 gps. with litter pans and fleece. It's not 100% that they will use the pan. And we've had several water bottle leaks and disasters. It's all such a pain to clean/vacuum off fleece, etc... It has to be easier? I don't want to divide the space because they love running. What is the easiest, fastest, pet friendly way to clean them? THANKS!!!

I have found this, unless there is very little at the bottom. If you keep it filled then no. But to little at the bottom will cause any kitty litter to that. :)

If you have a small rabbit it's perfect pairing with a rabbit fence enclosure. I did take the grate top off the litter box....my rabbit is completely potty trained.

If you don't use the center divider you can fit a large pan in there with room for cat to get out/etc. if you want to use the center divider (it is optional) you would need a pretty small pan. I use a large pan with no divider and it works great!

I have a rabbit in mine, but here is my thought:You can use the cage without the grate, though the blue pan is pretty deep. You could also try to cover it with linoleum. Just make sure not to leave edges exposed for them to nibble on. If you did that you would have to do something to prevent urine and feces from running off the floor and out of the cage.

You can. However, the tidy cat pads are a perfect fit. The pellets are okay. I think using a different brand my work fine as long as they don't fall through the grate.

I have this cage and I purchased a corner scatter-proof litter box. I only put the hay inside of the litter box . Before I did this she would pee outside of the cage and the hay would be everywhere! Now I clean her cage out every other week and her litter box is cleaned every-other day. The bulk hay that makes it out of the litter box is pushed into the tray at the bottom of the cage.

Gosh, no..... We have a very small Terrier,...can't speak about using it for a ferret.

Yes, the litter pan goes on the ground. My suggestion is make sure you measure the pan to ensure it fits. I had a very large pan and it fit fine. Its a great training area. I used to lock my cat up when I had him, in this at night so he wouldnt harrass me so much. Then during the day he was allowed out. He knew when he was suppose to be in there, and when he didnt have to be. I love this cage. I used it for my cat who was also a rescue. I have since found him a home and will keep the cage if I find another rescue

We have two large cats and use 1/2 bag every week or a little more. We use a Scoop Free litter pan but I still clean it every day or two. I am very fussy about odors in our small apartment with the litter pan in our main bathroom. I like the crystal litter much better than clay. It is cleaner and neater.

I am using it for my rabbit now. I just bought a corner regular litter box and put the pellets right in there. She took to it immediately. Its been a week now and I dont smell a thing. I leave the solids in there because they are dry and have no odor anyway. I will just dump it when it starts smelling.

I have a small cat who is afraid of the other cats though this would be good to put him in so he can see everyone and can be calm. Could a small litter pan fit in it?

After some trial and error I found the BEST litter to use is Ultra/LitterPearls microcrystals! (I have 5 cats using this litter box and my visitors can't smell it!!). It absorbs great and they dont get scraped into the disposal hole by the scraper.

I only use bedding in the bottom pan, we do not put bedding on the wire rack. My bunny has no problem with her feet hurting on the wire, but I do make sure she has a bed to lie on if she wants. I really like this cage because the bottom pan is so deep and the poo does not overflow. I also don't recommend putting bedding where your bunny can sit in its own urine since they can get a parasite that could come from sitting in its urine. You can also put hay on the wire to help the bunnies feet.

You can use any good clumping litter! Also, I cut a tall kitchen garbage bag to line the collection pan. Just take bag out and dispose of it. Saves money on buying new collection receptacles.
