If you are looking for a natural diet, the preservatives BHA and BHT should also be avoided. Look for Vitamins A, C, or E as a preservative instead. A clean water supply is important to your pet's health. When a weak immune system or degenerative condition exists, toxic-free water is important. Filtered water is the first choice or distilled water as a second choice.
Stress alters our equilibrium and ferrets can sense the smallest ripple. . .
We are only here for a short time and our ferrets for even shorter. For the best possible health of your ferret, make sure they have clean litter boxes and sleeping areas, fresh food and water daily, no ear mites, fleas, or other parasites, and receive regular veterinary care and vaccinations. Very important to a ferret's emotional and mental health is the daily companionship of their human care-givers. Providing adequate mental stimulation is essential. During a body massage, check for tumors or parasites, look in the mouth for discolored teeth or red gums, check for ears and eyes for problems, etc.
