A ferret’s daily routine should include play and socialization activities to help them become amiable and social animals.

Enrichment and Stimulation

Keep enriching them by providing enrichment activities for your ferrets and mentally stimulating them. They would simply love it.

Ferrets need enclosures with enrichment activities and hammocks.

Veterinary Care
