Ferrets For Dummies
About this book
Everything you need to know about your playful new pet
Thinking of getting a ferret? It's not unusual—millions of people worldwide keep ferrets as pets, and they've been domesticated for around 2,500 years! While they're quiet for a lot of the day (catching up on important beauty sleep), when they're awake, they're lively, affectionate, and curious—and require lots of quality interaction with their humans. And that's why a happy ferret is a well-trained one, whose owner knows everything there is to know about its needs!
Ferrets For Dummies, 3rd Edition is here to make sure you become just that kind of owner, fully equipped to give your little friend the best possible home. It's packed with practical information on feeding, housing, health, medical care, and much more. You'll also find the latest on diet, dental hygiene, common ailments, and how to build an enjoyable and engaging environment for your smart, energetic new pet. There's even a section on how to get to know your ferret properly (spotting those little mood swings) and how to introduce it to play well with friends and family.

- Ferret-proof your home

Whether you have a jill (female), a hob (male), or a full "business" of ferrets (several), Ferrets For Dummies helps you ferret out whatever you need to know—and ensure that your fuzzy new pal is a healthy, happy member of the household.
