Nothing wrong with dried cat food if your on a budget. I know it's not got all the right nutrients but I you feed raw meat every day and had the dried kibble as a backup you can't go wrong. Know many people that use cat food. My Jill won't eat anything apart from cat kibble and cat meat. I can't get her to eat anything else, she won't eat raw meat. Got her off a woman that treated her like a baby, she's happy with her cat meat I suppose

The problem with catfood mate, is the protein is actually pretty low, and a lot of it is derived from non-meat sources. It also has a lot of filler in it. Ferrets have very short digestive tracts , hence why the eat a lot, shit a lot, and it smells like it does. For this reason they require a minimum meat derived protein content.

 

Having said that, ferrets can and have survived on all kinds of shit, i.e many lived and worked for years on bread and milk.

 

I still wouldn't feed it to them though!

Surely if they are getting meat every day that will substitute for it mate? Your right though, they have survived on all types of shit and it's only in the last few Years people Have realised that it needed to change

i dont feed my ferrets drymeal i give them all the extra food left from meals in the house and curries kebabs evrything lyk that... also whole trouts from fishing outings

 

Giving them the odd leftover is fine,,but the 2 examples you`ve mentioned are way to high in salt and other shit ,that would be bad for ferrets..

i thought that too tbh.. same when that kid said he fed his ferrets sausages... sausages are high in salt i believe... though after i told him he carried on doing it so meh.

 

 

I fed mine tuna (in sunflower oil (drained)) the other day as i literally had nothing in till' the day after.. they LOVED it.
