Hi all, I'm new here. I found this forum on the search. I’m a first time ferret owner and sadly we only have one right now. We’re trying to get here a friend but ferrets are impossible to find right now. We adopted this ferret and her previous owner told me she was the best ferret shes ever had and wasn’t destructive at all. WRONG, nothing is entertaining her or keeping her occupied, she’s torn up the carpet under the chimney and we’re RENTING! It will be an easy fix luckily but she’s tearing up the carpet everywhere, she has a dig box with rice but has no interest in it and won’t play, we’ve tried every toy ever to keep her happy and we try playing with her but she’s so insistent on tearing up this carpet and will dig around things we put on top of it, I read a lot about this. On top of it she’s dead set on getting into the kitchen which isn’t ferret safe and will jump Over the gate and everything. I’m so frustrated and I’m at my breaking point but I don’t want to give her away. But nothing is helping! What if we get another ferret and it doesn’t get better?!
