My Fuzzbutts Are Back

Ferrets-Sable

Kali (Sable Ferret) eating raw shrimp

I finally brought my website Ferrets Haven back online. I still have a lot of work to do with the website. Over the next few weeks I’ll be adding a different look and feel to this website. I hope you enjoy it.

Today my business of ferrets, my daughter, and I hung outside. They enjoyed rolling around in the grass. When I finally captured each ferret they all smelled like our sweet smelling grass.

Ferrets Haven Move

Ferrets: Indra & Kali

If you’ve been a regular on this website you’ll notice that most of my ferret pictures have disappeared. I moved Ferrets Haven along with my tech blog to a different server. No worries, the ferret pictures will return within a few days.

Until that time I’ll be sure to post some temporary ferret candy (pictures.)

Ferrets: Communal Foodbowl

Ferrets-Sable

I took this shot of my sable ferrets (Ganesh and Kali) yesterday. My ferrets are raw fed ferrets. Once (sometimes twice) per week my ferrets eat liver, beef hearts, eggs (shells also) they love it. If you’ve been reading Ferrets Haven for any length of time you know that I’ve been feeding my ferrets raw food for about a year.

My ferrets eat whole prey. The changes have been nothing short of amazing.

  • Their fur is thicker, softer, & glossier
  • They have less tarter buildup
  • Their ear wax has diminished
  • They are more muscular and energetic
  • No biting

There are numerous other benefits I’ve see since switching my ferrets to a raw food diet but I’ll address that later. I’m currently writing an article that focuses on the benefits that I’ve seen from transition my ferrets to raw food. I’m glad I made the switch. It seems as if it were just yesterday when I switched my ferrets, but it’s been over a year.

I used to have an “open door” policy with my fuzzbutts meaning that I would keep their door to their home open always; however, I now close it during feeding times. Kali (little scrapper) my smallest ferret had a tendency to take choice bits of whatever tasty morsel I fed her and store it somewhere in my bedroom. Gross!

Ferret: Irresistible

Ferret-Sable-Kali

My sable ferret Kali

This is my ferret Kali. Isn’t she Irresistible? She’s a sable ferret. I’m happy I was able to take a still shot of her. This little ferret momma stays in constant motion. She’s the only female ferret (jill) amidst three ferret hobs (males) but she puts them in place when they need it. I call her “little scrapper”. Her brothers learned long ago not to let her size fool them.
