is this safe for ferrets, due to their sensitivity to certain woods like pine and cedar?

These pellets are made with pine. If your ferrets use a litter pan I would not risk it. If you have a cage where the droppings go through into a pan beneath the cage that they do not cone in contact with, you should be ok.

I've seen it used for ferrets before, and they survived. I know mice also have a sensitivity to those same woods, but I use it for all of mine and haven't had any problems. =)

I'm not all that familiar with how sharp ferret claws are, but the tape is sturdy and I would think if you put one layer down and then another on top, it would withstand stronger, more determined claws. I only use it for a small dog that sometimes scratches at my wooden door, but it's a simple enough product to apply if you are looking for something easy to at least try for the ferret.

I have ferrets. The plastic balls were almost entirely chewed up in the first week. The green bin has held up well and we replaced the balls with ones made from harder material and it worked out great

I used some leftover Feline Pine I had in this box and it ended with piles of sawdust in the tray. I switched to this system because my long haired cat smelled like a gerbil cage and her backside was always gross.

Yes but it's not for your dog or cat. You should use cedar oil solution for your pets.

I don't think it would be too small for ferrets in my opinion.. It is plenty big enough for the Netherland Dwarf rabbit.

my guys are old but a young ferret may get through mesh if left unattended its not a cage just a play pen.

Yes, the new formula for 40 lb. Feline Pine is awful- dusty, no pine smell any more! I will try to find alternative pine pellets like others have. Shame on Arm and Hammer for ruining a once-great product!

I would say no. We had Guinea Pigs and they were a little bigger than my ferret. Plus a ferret naturally climbs through things. Not sure my guinea pigs would have done that. Buy a dryer hose and see if they climb through the hose. I hooked it up to an big empty box. Ferret loves slithering through it. I can only recommend Octo-Play for ferrets since I no longer have a guinea pig.

Yes, it's small enough that a ferret won't squeeze through, but a hamster very likely could. There is almost a full inch of space between the vertical bars.

I've had ferrets before and I can promise you that your ferret will "ferret" out of it in no time. Their sharp teeth and claws will tear through the plastic and netting. You would need something solid to enclose a ferret and this is soft, making it easy to fold up and keep in it's convenient travel case.

It should be safe for gerbils. I've used it for my hamsters for almost a year now and it's been the best bedding I've used. Handles odors great.

NO! Please search "ferret" and "supplies", or contact a local shelter who can put you in touch with other ferret owners and resources. If you read the information, you will see size of the parts - and if you know the size of a ferret, you will realize that this would be a dangerous combination.

Wood pellets might have chemicals and binders that isn't good for cats. I personally wouldn't trust it, but if you know where the pellets came from and how they were made, it's worth a shot.

My ferret bit through it, I'm assuming how big it is it might be able to but if it brings its spike out it could probably destroy it easily
