Your ferret is an important part of your household, and you want to make sure she is safe there. Since ferrets have a tendency to give their owners a run for their money, you will want to thoroughly evaluate your home before letting your ferret enjoy time outside of her enclosure. This will mean inspecting your living area, particularly spaces near to the ground where your pet will be frequenting. Remove anything she could choke on or accidentally ingest, as well as anything that could potentially harm her. Be careful of small spaces that your pet could climb into. Thoroughly block them off so they won’t be an issue. Also, try to think about things your pet may become entangled in, like blind strings. These should also be placed out of reach.
