Is this big enough for a single 6 to 8 week old ferret?

I would think so, we are using ours for a guinea pig which is full grown and oh may he is all over the place. Got really strong also.

I believe it would be fine for a ferret of that age, but I probably wouldn't use it for a full grown ferret. I have four rats in mine comfortably. The cage is easy to clean and maintain, my only complaint are that the bars are a little weak. I broke one loose just picking up the cage. Hope this helps

I've never had a ferret as a pet but I think it would be. It's plenty big for our two grown guinea pigs.

I have a ferret (not in this cage) and we have two pet dumbo rats in this cage. This cage would be suitable for young ferret, however, it would not provide sufficient space as the ferret grows. Will it "fit"? Sure! But it will not have adequate space. On the other hand - as someone else mentioned - if you will provide the ferret with a lot of "out of cage" play time, it would be okay for overnights only. Our ferrets have always had the run of the (ferret proofed, of course!) house. Good luck with your ferret! They are the BEST pets!

In theory yes, but I wouldn't recommend it. This cage is best suited to rats. Ferrets do better with more space and in pairs as they are very social and like to play and cuddle together.

I think so...my son has two rats in rhis cage and so yes i think a young ferret will do well..:)

Yes, it's big enough for now, but once your ferret grows to maturity (and it doesn't take long) the cage will seem small. You'd be better off investing in a larger cage right away.

I agree with the others. It's entirely too short for ferrets. They climb up my four foot cage, and this isn't more than a foot tall. They might be able to even hop out.

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

It's really too small to house 2 ferrets together - both of my ferrets are small to begin with, just under 2lbs each and they have their own cages. And they get 4-6 hours to run off their energy each day, so they really only sleep and eat and use the bathroom in these cages. This brand sells another cage (forgot the name, but it's purple) that could comfortably house 2 ferrets.

I loved this cage for my ferrets. I only had two of them and it worked great. I know that rats chew quite a bit, and wonder if they would chew on the plastic parts. Aside from that it should work great for one or two.

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.

Not sure, it's big enough for a kitten or a ferret, maybe particularly small cat - I gave mine away to animal rescue because my cat is nearly 1.5 times bigger than the carrier...

Yes this house is big enough for two pets . I have my overweight guinea pig in this house . and he just loves it .There is also a sleep hammock for ferrets on top . so easy to put together and my pet just loves the roomy spaces in it .. Very good product for the price .Which I believe was very well priced

Yes for ferrets, rats are too small :( My cat just knocked it over to get the food out

This is sized for ferrets which are very slim, this harness at its largest just fits around my wrist. Unless its a yorkie puppy i wouldn't imagine this harness would work for you.

It should be plenty big enough for the dog, I use it for my ferrets and have found that it's depth provides plenty of space for both of them. The only thing is that it is easily chewed if the animal becomes bored

A ferret would never fit on that size. I can't see any of my ferrets using this no matter the size of it.

I would get something with more room for a ferrett. I have a chinchilla and its just big enough for him. I don't kno if ferretts chew but my chinchilla chewed a lot of the plastic on it so if they chew I would look for something different.

I haven't had a ferret but I've had friends who have and from what I've seen this could easily be used for ferrets. the only problem I have had out of mine is that the metal grate comes out because my guinea pig digs around and it comes up. so i just took it out. I still stuff the hay down in the back of it though because she just reaches in and pulls it all out.

Maybe an inch. It's boxed up or I could be more exact. I'm fairly certain it would hold your ferrets ok.

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.

For that price u can get a bigger cage used. Ferrets can get pretty long. It may feel crowded in here. If u put him/her in something of this size, try to let him out now and then (u can leave it in a room with no holes or dangerous furniture) so it can excercise. Check eBay, too. Good cage tho. Love the slide out bottom tray.
