Pet Ferret Care: How to Care for Your Ferret Like an Expert Review

Author and official ferret nut, David Rand has been offering ferret tips to the ferret community for the past 6 years. In that time over 7,000 ferret owners (and beginners) have told him they want more and he finally gave in and wrote the book on the subject. When we asked him to summarise what readers would find he said:

"If you want to find out what some of the world's top ferret experts recommend to make it easy for you to keep your ferret happy, healthy, safe, playful and pooping in the right place, this is the book for you."

Drawing from, not only his own expertise, but also from extensive interviews with some of the top ferret care specialists from places like Taronga Zoo in Sydney, Australia (specialists who do it for a living every day at home AND at work), this book is the culmination of that information on ferret care.

David further explained:

"This ferret care guide was created to give you the steps, tips and tricks you need to ensure that both your ferret AND you get the most fun and enjoyment out of your relationship. Imagine you really understood exactly why your ferret acts the way he does (and knew how to easily fix any bad behaviour any time you wanted to!) "

Imagine you knew how to quickly get your ferret to listen to you, keep him safe from harm, follow your instructions (AND go to the toilet where you want him to). If you know the right way to look after your ferret, it's easy!"

This book contains the information which comes from years and years of real, hands on experience - including step-by-step answers to those tricky ferret questions that you've been looking up online or trying to talk to your local pet store about and just can't seem to find the answer for.
