Ferret Game Secrets To Good Bonding
Posted Under: General
There is tons of information on how to look after your ferrets health and enviornment, but ferret play? What should you do at playtime?
Well let’s find out…
Ferret games are a great way of bonding with your ferret. Having a fantastic ferret game to hand is a must. This will mean you and your ferret build a lasting relationship.
Make sure your games are fun and light hearted and don’t get too out of hand. Use it as a way to connect and play.
Here’s five ferret games you can use to encourage playtime fun with your little guys…
Ferret Game 1 - Tug ‘O’ War
Grab your ferrets favourite toy and waggle it in front of them. Once they get interested and grab it back you’ll be able to play a gentle game of tug O’ war. Don’t be too aggressive, more light hearted and fun.
Ferret Game 2 - Ferret Tag
Get your ferrets attention and then run off! Simple. Your ferret can then run behind you to check out what’s going on. You can then chase them back and so forth. Then cuddle and spoil them a bit.
Ferret Game 3 - Ferret dig dig
Get a really big box and fill it with screwed up paper balls. Next you tuck their favourite toy down at the bottom and watch them dig in after it. Watch how much your ferret enjoys this.
Ferret Game 4 - Ferret fly fishing
This is one of my favourite games. Tape a treat to a piece of cotton and then tape the cotton to a piece of cane. Let it hang infront of the ferret and lightly fling it about until the chase after it.
Ferret Game 5 - Ferret Ping-Pong
Grab a ping pong ball bounce it around in front of your ferret on a hard floor. Most ferrets have a great time going after it, but you have to get their attention first. All around good play.
Go ahead and come up with your ferret games of your own making?
