Do ferrets need company?
Ferrets are social animals and should have the company of other ferrets. Social animals that live on their own can get stressed and lonely.
What’s the best combination of ferrets to keep?
Littermates of the same sex should live together, as this minimises the chance of them fighting. Unneutered males and females shouldn’t be kept together, as they will breed and it can be difficult to find homes for the young.
What to do if you go away
Who should care for my ferrets if I go on holiday?
If you go away, you should leave your ferrets in the care of a trusted friend or neighbour.
