Yup, let them eat it. You wouldn't believe some of the things ferrets have stashed and eaten. Things we all say will kill them, too. While you may not intentionally feed the canned food, it is probably perfectly fine for them. I was using the ferret food in the cat's free feed kibble dish and they would steal it thinking they got away with something! Would they eat it when served to them? I don't think so! Anyway, since ferrets have been fed everything from hot dogs to salad as their "main" food source and lived to tell about it, I would not worry about the occasional wet cat food treat! -- Renee Downs "Eventually we will realize that if we destroy the ecosystem we destroy ourselves."
