Hi all,
I've found that elderly ferrets don't like to be caged for long periods of
time. I used to let my late Slinky, at age 6.5 out during the day, and
when I had to go out, I put him in the bathroom with a blockade. As he
got older and slept more, I let him have complete freedom during the day,
as he slept most of the time and no longer climbed. I continued to cage
him during the night until his death. I work out of my home, so it was
easy for me, but you could leave the ferret in a ferret-proof room while at
work. Slinky used to just get up to eat and use the litter box, play with
his toy mice and then go back to sleep.
Regards,
Moxie and Chance
