Ferret Lead

[Guest norseman]

anyone on here recommend a ferret harness and lead?(don't worry im not taking them for walks)

I cant really ferret proof my garden as theres a wood at the end of it. and they aren't outside much as im currently building a run, so they are in a small hutch for the time being. (going stir crazy)

 

seen one on amazon but it stated that it could not be tethered as the ferts can chew through it.

so anyone on here point me to the right ones

Yeah normally lead and harness sets made for kittens will do or for larger ferrets use one made for cats. Ones made for ferrets are available on amazon uk below. I have lots just dont use a small dog harness lol

If I meet you walking them ferrets I will get a photo and put it up here!!

[Guest norseman]

I just take mine out into an empty field, open the cat carrier and have a smoke, they dont go far haha.

Mine are generally very well behaved and come when they´re called-they know their names!

The vest harnesses are shit they will probs slip out of them. H style ones are best. I dont know how people walk them cos mine go where they want lol

[onthehunt 40]

I have bought some from http://ferretcouture.co.uk/ and they´re good and strong. mine dont have a chance to slip out. a harness and lead set costing around 8 pounds should do the job.

 

cheap ones are shite.

[GreyRake 108]

Yeah ferrets go where they want to. Cant beat the old leather H shapes. Tried other cheap ones - they don't alter small enough, even for my hob, break or the ferret gets out of it. Plus tying them up would just result in a big tangled mess i would imagine?

[onthehunt 40]

All my ferret harnesess are H shaped. Tried other harnesses from pet shops that seemed as if they were designed by cretins.

cheers lads, ive mine ordered an all so i'll just return them if they are shite like. hopefully they'll do though. cant let that hob of mine out with an escape lol like lightning he is

I use the H shaped ones

 

And I do take them for a walk sometimes,, and the grandkids have them out around the garden as well.

 

A woman once drove up the kerb trying to see what I was walking down the street,, shit herself ! lol
