But it is what we don??t put in to Selective that is important too??
Have you checked the label on your ferrets?? food lately? Take a look,because some foods contain molasses or syrup or other sugaryingredients.This extra sugar in a ferret??s diet can lead to overeatingand obesity. It can also lead to dental problems too. Because ferretshave a very short digestive tract, they need a diet that is very high inprotein and low in fibre. Selective has 36% protein and very low fibrelevels at just 2%.
Specialist vet Molly Varga says ??Ferrets are increasingly popular as pets in the UK, and have been kept as working animals for many years. Weknow that they have high protein requirements and they are often called??Supercarnivores?? for that reason. As a vet who treats ferrets I needto be able to recommend a suitable food for my patients. With is high protein levels, lack of added sugar and palatable formulation, Supreme Ferret Food fulfils that criteria.??
Feeding Selective for the first time?
If you are feeding Selective to your ferrets for the first time, make sure you change from one food to another, gradually over 7-10 days. Atfirst, you should mix a small amount of Selective with your ferrets?? current food, slowly decreasing the old diet, whilst graduallyincreasing the quantity of Selective. A sudden change in diet can causedigestive upsets ?C even when you are changing to a better quality diet so take care!
If your ferrets are used to a sugary diet, you may find it takes them a while to change, but persevere as it will help to benefit your ferrets?? health in the long term. And don??t forget fresh water! Your ferrets should have an unlimited supply at all times.

Ferrets make great pets!
They??re very inquisitive and sociable as well as being playful and intelligent!
Ferrets are extremely active, love lots of exercise and will want youto play with them every day. They??re friendly once they get to know youand although they??re carnivores, they won??t bite you if you treat themright.
Ferrets need lots of protein in their diet and because they digesttheir food very quickly, they must be fed at regular intervals.
Which Ferret Will You Choose?
Originally there were two ferret coat colours (albino and sable).Nowadays there are a wide variety of colours, patterns and markings.
The different combinations of colours, patters and markings producean infinite number of variations. Some examples of patterns could be??Roan?? (a mixture of coloured and white hair) or ??Dalmatian?? (with spotsand blotches on a white coat). Markings can be a mask of colour foundacross the face mitts and feet, or a blaze (white on forehead andchest).
What to Feed Your Ferret…
Ferrets are carnivores so they need lots of protein in their diet,and this means that they will cost a little more to feed than a rabbitor guinea pig. Ferrets digest their food very quickly so need small,frequent meals with a high level of protein and oil. A good quality, heavy, earthenware bowl keeps food dry and clean andprevents the Ferret from tipping the food. Bowls must be cleaned after every use and stale food thrown away.
Treats should be an extremely small element of the animal??s diet ?C overfeeding may lead to health problems such as obesity, dental problemsand heart disease. Natural treats for your Ferret could be some cooked chicken, ham and hard boiled or scrambled eggs. You will need to be careful though as Ferrets will have a favourite hiding place where they will hoard food. You will need to find this and remove any food that is stale.
NEVER GIVE YOUR FERRET ANY DAIRY PRODUCTS OR SWEETS.
Handling Ferrets
To ensure that your Ferret becomes tame and affectionate it is important that you handle it frequently and correctly.
Picking up your Ferret incorrectly could lead to it being permanently frightened and may lead to it becoming aggressive.
Remember that most small animals are prey in the wild. So, ifapproached from above they??ll see a large shadow and become scared. Theymight run and hide or try to attack you.
Before attempting handling, make sure that your Ferret is awake and alert. Let it decide when it is ready to come to you.
Your voice is a very good method of introduction, it will make your Ferret aware that you are nearby.
Ferrets should be grasped around the shoulders with one hand, withyour thumb under its mouth and, at the same time, supporting the hindlegs with your other hand. Then gently lift it and hold against yourchest.
