How to Keep Your Ferret Healthy, Happy and Safe!

• Groom your ferret on a regular basis: bathe, trim nails, brush teeth and clean its ears.

• Take your ferret to an exotic animal veterinarian for an annual physical examination, fecal analysis for parasites, and dental cleaning.
  
• Keep your ferret up-to-date on canine distemper and rabies vaccinations.
  
• Provide heartworm preventive medication.
  
• Avoid exposing your ferret to human influenza, to which it may be susceptible.
