Ferrets And Their Strong Odors

 


The odor of your pet ferret can be quite offensive. This odor becomes even stronger when it is their mating season. The reason for this is that intact female and male ferrets would secrete additional amounts of greasy skin.

To manage this odor, you may want to consider neutering or spaying, de-scenting to reduce this strong smell. However, it will not ultimately eradicate it. Cleaning his environment is also a good idea for managing the smell as well as bathing your pet every week. His cage and beddings should also be washed once a week (minimum). Your pet’s litter box should be cleaned at least twice a day.

You should decide whether or not you want a ferret as a pet by gauging whether you can stand the smell of a baby ferret because if you can’t, then you should look for another animal that fits your lifestyle better.

A sudden change in your pet’s health and/or behavior should require a visit to a vet hospital Wichita, KS. Click here and make an appointment.
