Playthings are extremely important to keep your fuzzy when outside playing stimulated. Nevertheless, all ferrets are different and certainly will find different things interesting (just like humans). Each ferret has its own individual style and with that come their very own individual likes and dislikes.

So if you’ve got lots of ferrets, then occasionally it can be difficult to cater to each of their needs. The additional time you spend with them and the more you bond, what they would like to play with and the further you’ll know about your ferrets.

Ferrets are great because a lot of the time they’ll create their own homemade ferret toys. For example, they can take a liking to your clothing and tunnel through it or steal it.

Homemade ferret toys come in several shapes and forms but always remember to supervise you fuzzbutts during play. You do not desire them swallowing something that their not supposed to ( it can get stuck in their miniature intestines).

A few cases of games and home made ferret toys are:

Place some sheets or a blanket on the floor – they’ll tunnel through it…too simple!
Place them in a pillow case and lightly shake it – it’s a comical sight.
Roll up some socks into a ball – you can put a bell or a treat in the middle, this will definitely occupy a great deal of their time…
Pipes and tubes (make sure they are clean) – They’ll run through it over and over and over again…do not they ever get dizzy?!
