Ask a Ferret

With the snowy season settling in at the HQ, humans and ferrets alike are snuggling in. Fleece, flannel and wool are being pulled out of the cedar chest to keep us warm and cozy. If there is one thing ferrets are absolute experts at, it is cuddling and sleeping. We asked our fans, “What are your ferret’s favorite positions to sleep in?” We got some awesome photos and silly answers from both our retailer and ferret owner fans. Take a peek at some of our favorites below and share your photos on our Facebook timeline @MarshallPetFerrets with the hashtag #SleepingFerrets.

PET SUPPLIES PLUS

Ferret toe beans are the best. Combine that with the adorable sleeping positions that ferrets get themselves into and it is cuteness overload. These shots were taken on site at a Pet Supplies Plus while these little guys were waiting for their new owner to arrive.

KORI BECKER

Brothers dook and brothers fight, but these two brothers cuddle all night.

ALYSSA RIORDAN

Remi and Swiper were rescued and so sweet. They have made our life complete.

PET PARADISE

Ferrets sleep very deeply for an average of 1518 hours a day. They are most active at dawn and dusk. This kit was whooped after his fi rst couple of days at Pet Paradise. These adorable photos were taken of a nine week old kit as he napped in the hands of an employee.
