Country Joe 1,411 Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 All good comments,just keep things simple, I would do away with the digging area, find a corner where you think they will do their business, buy two cheap cat litter trays, screw one down, and the other fits inside, stops them dragging it. Buy a bag of wood based cat litter, if your lucky they will use it. I just use wood shavings for bedding, And as been said, get some weld mesh for the fronts. Quote Link to post
BEARINATOR 2,825 Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 Country Joe, he is a joiner by trade so should be able to get his shavings for free for the toiler area and base of his hutch Quote Link to post
Country Joe 1,411 Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 Fair enough, Shavings is not a problem for me also, my two use the litter tray, and i find the cat litter soaks up everything really well, and they dont scrape it out, and at £3 a bag, lasts for ages. But if shavings is what you want to use, then it will be okay, its just another idea. Once a week i lift out the tray, empty into a bin bag replace with four handfulls of cat litter, takes mins, jobs done. 1 Quote Link to post

sam4530s 37 Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 its nice to see someone putting the effort in and thinking about getting everything ready befor they arrive . some good advice here from other people im sure you will make alterations as and when it needs it if it does, one thing i will say tho is that ferrets are very very persistant and will not give up until they are free , k.i.s.s is so true . all the best and keep us updated .
