I apologize for the redundancy here - I know a lot has been posted in the past about this, but to be frank, I don't get to even read much on here due to the high volume of posts and my very limited time. Anyway, Jester (the kitty molester) is my first ferret. I got him in mid-Feb. and he is now 8 months old. He is from the local shelter - don't know where he originates from. My question is regarding food. I've been feeding him Sci. Diet kitten as was recommended at the shelter. Now I'm hearing that Totally Ferret is a better diet. However, I can't even find it at any local pet store/supply (I live in Eugene, Oregon). I'd like some feedback from the group. What type is best? Should I mix a ferret food with the kitten food? And if the recommended food isn't available in my area, what do I need to look for in a food? so far Jester is doing fine, but I think I might detect just a very slight weight loss?? Thanks for your assistance. (the other) Kat <[log in to unmask]> [Posted in FML issue 2291]
