Cage Accessories . You'll need to get a very heavy food bowl so that it can't be tipped. The same goes for a water bowl unless you prefer to use a water bottle. Ferrets love to sleep in old sweatshirts and pant legs, but you should also provide a small basket or cardboard box in case your ferret doesn't like sleeping on the floor. A triangular-shaped corner litter box works well in cages as a toilet.
Hammocks provide a great place for a nap and make the cage more spacious.
Ramps and tubes can be fun, but your ferret will most likely get bored in the cage and sleep most of the time, so let him out whenever you can. You'll know fairly quickly which of your possessions are now your ferret's toys - just make sure they don't have tiny parts, or he'll swallow them. Do your nose a favor and get a high quality litter. Clumping litter, while easy to clean, might get clogged in your ferret's butt, as some ferrets have a habit of dragging their rears after they've done their business. Other than that, a good cat litter should do the trick.
