Answering the Question – Is it Okay to Feed Your Ferrets Cat Food?
Ferrets are adorable pets that are very active and playful. However, due to lack of basic information about them, owners of the pet usually are confused about one question. Is it okay to feed your ferrets cat food? The answer is not entirely a yes or no. They are carnivorous and love meat, especially cooked. If you can find quality ferret food in your locality then there is nothing like it. However, cat food is good enough to provide them most of the nutrients they need, in case it is hard to find good ferret food.
If you are planning to feed your ferret with cat food, ensure that it has at least 30-35% protein content and 15-20% fat content. High quality protein content in the food keeps the them active and energetic. Kitten food is usually preferred for ferrets if you are unable to find traditional food. However, kitten food like kibble should be brown and crunchy. This also helps in maintaining the dental health of the pet. Crunchy cat food can also be given to them. However, soft cat food should be avoided.
Canned or dry cat food is almost as good as ferret food. But you should make sure the food is low in fiber, sugar and grains. The fiber content in the food should be less than 3% at all costs. Sweets and sugar content also prove harmful to them causing insulin related complications when they grow old. The food should be dry but it should not be soft. Dry diet is always more nutritious for the pet.
The other advantage of dry ferret diet is that it is more economical. It also lasts longer and does not get spoilt when stored. If you are wondering “is it okay to feed your ferrets cat food?” you need not be worried if you can ensure that the food contains some vitamin supplement as well. Finally you should make sure the ferret drinks enough water to avoid dehydration. Many pet owners leave a small bowl of water near the cage to ensure it sips from it every now and then.

Max the cat, whom we believe to be around 15 years of age (human years), but won’t meow either way, is a professional cola taste tester in Jacksonville, Fla., and who is known for his rough tongue decisions when it comes to taste testing. Though today, in the Cola nationals taste competition that was held Feb. 6, 2005, at my brother’s home in Orange Park, decided after pawing his way through so many different colas over the years, not to mention today, including, Coke, Diet Coke, Diet Rite, Pepsi, Orange drink, and even Root Beer, and knowing that we were watching and we were waiting, pawing for his decision that we thought would never come. He would only look up at us from time to time, knowing what he was doing to us as we watched him, but we just waited for him to give us some kind of sign by either a scratch or a hiss, maybe even a cough which we figured might never happen. Though as we waited pawingly for his decision, and wondered how much longer should we should let this go on, but dealing with Max, knowing that maybe it was just old age, we decided to just let him take his time, and let him tell us when the time was right. Because knowing Max, somethings were never going to change with a grumpy old guy like himself. So we waited and waited for him to make some kind of move. At times, he would look one way or another, even tilting his head toward Root Beer, but oh no, and so he would make us wait, thinking that maybe we might not approach him anytime soon for a …
