i have a some tips for everyone who doesn't like there ferrets smell (i love it how i know Im home) well u find an outlet near his cage (not too close) and get a glade plug in, light incense, candles. when u vacuum use pet safe carpet freash/carpet ( don't let your ferrets get into it) when cleaning his cage use Clorox wipes or take the whole thing outside and scrub it with a mix of water and laundry soap (tide smell so good for so long) a tooth brush works great for cleaning in between those wires too. litter should be changed every 3 days or so i use all pet pine is great your litter pan smells like wood shop and it never smells!!!! for bedding i would suggest care fresh, carpet, or my favorite lambs wool slip proof pad u can cut it to fit your cage its washable and really soft on the little carpet sharks feet. bath your ferret no more than once a month or else u will strip the oils from his skin. in between use ferret wipes of dissenting spray (watch there eyes) Well That's What I Do Hope It Helps Someone!!!!!!!
