Hey Creatures! Welcome back to another CREATURE FEATURE!! I hope you enjoy today's lesson on BONUS WEASELS, starring Dobby and a vegetable.. aka Niffler! Also, I've been SO busy preparing my new studio that I practically blinked and we are almost at HALF A MILLION Creature Creature!? What!? How!? When!?!?!? EEEEEEE!!! (Can you sense the excitement? There is MUCH EXCITE! ALL THE EXCITE!!). Thank you so much for your support so far in my UA-cam journey. UA-cam is only the start and I'm working on a ton of projects off platform too, so stay tuned! Each and every one of you are valued, and thank you so much for wanting to learn through my videos. Entertainment is great, but it's true what they say - knowledge is power, so I hope you gain some more today! XXX EM
Emzotic YEEEESSSS WWEEEEEAAAAAASSSSSLLLLEEESSS. LOL #CatSnakes#weaslesquad. Ur ferret videos r the best I could watch the video all day and not get tired and ur probably my favorite UA-camr ever
Emzotic i love you so so much I look up to you and I rlly would love if you gave me a shout bye I love the way you know everything about animals and I love nifela I think that is how you spell it lol 😂 but I just wanna say that I think your awesome
Now that I know a group of ferret's is called a business, I can't help but imagine a bunch of them all wearing fancy suits while they discuss something around a big table.
First time I had to handle a ferret in 'dead sleep' I was like 16, I pulled my ferret out of the cage. And he was seemingly dead. As me and my mom fought about how the ferret died and cried about it. 5 minutes later it magically woke up. It was totally surreal. Lmao..
@@treyk.8802 - Research only does so much, even if you know it can happen doesn't mean you're prepared for it and it is easy to make a mistake (and get frightened), as said in the video.
@@treyk.8802 Even if you do the proper research, determining if the ferret is truly dead or is simply in "dead sleep" is difficult, especially if it is the owner's first ferret. Emzotic said herself that her ferret has scared her many times. Do not be so quick to judge.
Idk why but the “ferret legging” disturbs me... I know my friend’s ferrets love climbing up her legging holes, but those ferrets were just forced into a small space with little ventilation for hours.
Not to mention its gross , why should the poor thing be forced to be put in or near someone's underwear and private parts? Who know if the human stinks or not! It's just gross and very stupid
Not just you, that ferret legging was disturbing and really didn't belong in this video... felt like "Haha, look at this funny animal abuse you can do, haha!".
I've been a ferret owner since 86. They absolutely do dream. Mine over the years have ran in their sleep and even been vocal. The best things about ferrets are that they will be some of the best pets you will ever own...provided you have ferretproofed your house. They will also adjust to your schedule...and when they want to play, they will annoy you until you give in. Downside...vet bills...the bills are brutal. And keep them away from anything rubber. They are also prone to insulinoma. Sadly, I am no longer a ferret owner. My last one passed at 6 years old in January. Great video...but you forgot the part about dooking or chuckling. cheers from Canada.
@@davidnetix the vet told us he has it . He became very sick, vomiting and listless, and loosing weight. He now is on redypred, a watered down version of pedmisalone ( probably spelt wrong).
Insulinoma is almost only ever seen in ferrets fed on a biscuit diet and is basically the pancreas giving up and developing tumors from having to work overtime trying to produce enzymes to deal with the plant matter in the biscuits which their little bodies really aren't designed to do :( therefore the vast majority of cases are actually preventable :(
Aw... Sorry for your loss my dear... Maybe someday you'll consider owning one or two once again, if you haven't already... I noticed my Rhaenys being vocal in her sleep, and she's only 20 wks old... She knows my work schadule, and home stay schadule thus always having plenty of time to play & cuddle with her... Being annoyed by her wanting to play outside of her FN Cage, is the least issue for me... Cause she has plenty of that, & My whole room to do the Weasel Dance in, Rice Digging, Extreme Tube Walking and Cat Teaser Toy chasing till she tuckers out on her own... No Rubber in my room what so ever, therefor no worries there... My ferret: Rhaenys makes the dooking sounds while during play time with the Squeeker toys, and Chuckling during Weasel War Dance, and or Tikkle Attack... Rhaenys practically melts right into my arm when I Massage her back, hence between her Shoulder blades, and her front side: chest and belly area... She's my beautiful little white angel fuzz.. LOL. I sometimes refer to her as: Thunder Drageera, Thunder Whiskers or Thunder Fuzz...
Another thing to know: Ferrets can have a huge amount of energy. They aren't "lap pets" until they get older. The one that I cared for was pretty mellow by the time he got to 12 years old (we guessed. he was adult when he came to the family), but he was mischievous when he was younger. Definitely earned the name Loki. Then Low Key when he got older. Fold him in half and pass him to an 8 or nine year old kid. Best ambassador ever.

I have a deaf ferret, we love her and she’s the sweetest little thing but if your thinking about getting a ferret make sure to do ALOT of research before hand. They’re great animals to have but they’re also pretty hard to deal with. They all have different personalities and you have to make sure you give them the opportunity to shine that beautiful personality through. I still don’t know everything about my ferret and I’ve had her for a few years now. She LOVES to steal my socks, shoes, inserts, stuffed animal/ small pillows, sandals, slippers and many other things. But you just have to get used to stuff like that. Ferrets are VERY VERY curious, they’ll get into all kinds of trouble. So before you get a ferret do lots and lots of research about them. Hope I helped you!
I have a deaf ferret too along with five others and they are free roaming in my room so all the others will wake up for playtime with me and I have to go fetch him to come play or he won’t wake up all day
Nikki Trev haha! It’s kinda like that at my house two. I let my ferret out in the mornings. If it’s a school morning and my moms working we put her back in her cage till my mom comes back from work. But, if me and my sister have no school we usually keep her out for a couple hours. She usually ends up hiding and falling asleep somewhere though 😂
Plz could you make a video about what it really takes to take care of a ferret how to ferret proof a house, diet,cage and that kind of stuff thinking about getting a ferret but have seen that it's not good for beginners and are a very hard pet to keep but i would like to be convinced that they do make great pets. And also I would like to know do ferrets get along with dogs?
Julia Mierzwiak I currently have four ferrets, ages 7, 5, 5, and almost 1 and all of them have been raised with my dogs ages 16 weeks, 1 year and 2 years old. So my dogs learn from very early on ferrets are not prey or toys (but are always supervised with my ferrets) and I’ve never had a ferret react to a dog with any behavior other than playing or not caring. My 3 older ferrets (boys) have also been introduced to 3 of my 5 cats when the cats were kittens and played with my kittens just like they played with each other. Of course cat instincts are more strong and unpredictable than dogs, so they don’t get the same amount of exposed to my cats as my dogs, but supervised all of my ferrets get along just fine with my cats and dogs. None of my ferrets have ever been aggressive towards any an animals, (including my one ferret who is a rescue and was abused by children)
I have a huge dog and 5 ferrets who were all old when introduced but they do really well together. If she’s harrasing them too much they’ll find a place she can’t get to or out run her
Depends on the ferret and on the dog. Keep them supervised. I dont say this because 'the dog will bite!' but because the ferrets will bite too and may freak the dog out / get nipped / get stepped on. Ferrets have very thick skin and can bite eachother hard without issues but most other animals have thinner skin and it huuurrrrts!
The number of times the older ferrets I had scared me half to death and made me think they were dead during dead sleep. The number of panic attacks ferrets have caused me. But they're also a great pet for someone with depression cuz they're such a goofy pet they always cheer you up just by running past you. I can say ferrets were a great pet to grow up with
I recently just got a ferret. I have owned them in the past but never a male ( this ferret is a male) he’s crazy and weird and likes to rough house and his name is Snickers!
Perfect timing!!!! Im starting to study animal care, and I have to look after five of the smaller species😁 also what species of ferrets are yours? Thanks em x
@@sophiecresswell5051 I was looking for 3 ferret names and u gave me such a good idea, i already had conchobar, cancerbero and i was thinking maybe cristal, but im considering draco now tho hehehe
Not much of Harry Potter fan, dough I have seen the movies... Draco is also name of a Dragon in the movie: Dragon Heart pt.1 & pt.3 ( Sorcerers Curse )...
Her: ferrets are actually domestic species Me: did you hear that? Your meant to be DOMESTIC not BITE Edit: it's only one of my 3 ferrets that bites and I can now hold her with my hands for longer
One of the few videos I enjoyed a 100% regarding facts and ferrets. I love mine to death. But having a decent income is required when owning ferrets, or pets in general, for medical bills.
I LOVE ferrets soo much but in New Zealand where I live they where brought here to get rid of rabbits but they are now known as pests because they found some thing more interesting to hunt and that is the endangered kiwi bird ToT oh and amazing video I loved it keep u the great work 🤓
ShadowWolf23808 I’m a ferret owner . I don’t know if anyone knows this here but I rung MAF they told me if you have more than three you need a licence. Even though it is apparently illegal there seems to be a grey area I do believe.
ShadowWolf23808 I don’t think you are referring to domestic ferrets but wilder European polecats. Domestic ferrets can’t survive in the wild for more than a few days and most are useless as hunters
i had no idea ferrets were a completely domesticated species! that’s so interesting- it’s kind of like llamas and alpacas with their very similar wild relatives! great video
11:54 Niffler has no instincts for ANYTHING other than eating and sleeping and basically being about dynamic of a BANANA. Me: Niffler has the dynamic of a banana, my ferret (her name is Athena) has the dynamic of a someone eating a hot pepper 😒
Your ferrets are so cute!!!! I wish I could own ferrets but my dad is allergic to mostly all animal fur 🙁🙁🙁 Love you Em keep up the good work!❤️❤️❤️ Oh and I'm 35th like :)
One clarification, if I may: Domestic ferrets are descended from the European polecat, and there are breeders who mix the lines. So while there is only one species of wild "ferret," domestic ferrets have close relatives in the wild. Polecats are very difficult to domesticate and hybrids have some of the undesirable traits. If you do a search for European polecats, the images look just like your "poley" or sable, ferrets in this video. Dead Sleep still scares me, after 10 years and 28 ferrets. Your ferrets are beautiful!
I lost my fuzzballs a couple of years back all with pretty rough end of life care before finally having to put them down . The several year long experience left me pretty broken and I swore off ferrets, not thinking I could handle the heartache of it all. Your videos have been SOOOO healing as Niffler and Dooby are almost clones of two of the ferrets I had (a very large and derpy male named Winston and a stunted but driven female named Jolene) and have helped me realize, I still have a ferret shaped hole in my heart and when I'm ready, I'm going to add these little carpet sharks back into my life. Thank you
Didn't realize they were only indigenous to North America. I live that you bring up the bad part of ownership. Too many get one because they are cute, put it in a cage, ignore it, and wonder why they are not good pets. Research any new pet breed before committing to its care.
Hi Em, would you consider doing a Blue Tongued Skink creature feature or care video, I'm watching all yours videos and loving the channel so much, your personality is so colourful :D :D :D x
Hey Em I need help! I got a pet male rat (a dumbo rat I think) and my mother won't get a second rat and I heard rats love to socialize but that's not my biggest problem. My biggest problem is the CAGE! We're using my old bird cage which is too small for a rat (it's literally so small he can't run around in it). I asked my mother to buy a better cage for my birthday but she disagrees and says it's not a real birthday gift. My rat seems a little depressive and I don't want to give him away so please I really need help I don't know what to do!
Sally Face I would consider giving your rat away to someone who can give him a better home...:( Perhaps a shelter who also has a singular rat and a proper enclosure. Unfortunately, rats are a bit more complex than most people think. Good luck!
If u can't provide everything it needs. Give it away. Don't keep it if u can't provide for it. That's animal abuse. U obviously cant provide the space. The fact that that cage is so small is sickening. Give it to a shelter or sell it back to a pet store. Trust me its better doing it this way. Then keeping it and continuing to abuse it. Even if u want to get it more stuff. U can't rn. And again it living in that cage is abuse. And u may not purposefully abusing it. But a horder thinks there doing good by letting 30 dog a live in the poop covered house. But there not. U might think its good to keep him in that cage instead of giving him away. Its not. Animal abuse is when u know an animal needs more then ur providing it. U may be feeding and handling it. But that cage is abuse.
Try finding a short video about what rats need to be properly cared for and sit down with your mum and watch it together. Then discuss what you can do to earn the money needed for supplies. Good luck!
9:08 FYI either you meant the ferrets were brought over to America in the 19th century/1800s or the 18th century/1700s. The first century includes the years 0-99 AD/ACE, which is why we live in the 21st century despite not living in the 2100s
Omg ! I am so exited for this video 😁 Your little weasels have really inspired me to become a ferret owner and after almost a year of wanting them , I recently became a fosterer for a local ferret rescue 😍 (We are a bit of a fail as we are already keeping a pair🤦♀️ )I quite frankly wouldn't be doing this if it wasn't for these little noodles 🙈 So thank you so much Em , you are such an inspiration 😁 I am so happy that their ridiculous bouncing has such an interesting name 🤣 YASSSS ! I'm a ferret queen (700 years ago 🤣). Oh my gosh , I hope mine never do that , I would be terrified 😱 Hehe , I'm going to have to go and bombard my mum with all these fascinating ferret facts and outsmart her for once 😋 Thank you for such a fascinating bonus weasel video Xx
Also I think the why I'm a vegan backlash was extremely pitiful and unneeded I hope your channel recovered and also I have 4 ferrets a royale python 2 parrots and 5 mice yet I still eat meat you can eat something just cause you enjoy it saying a animals lover can't eat meat is like saying a gardender can't eat a salad so you are a great channel and I wish you the best of luck cheers
How long does it take to have your ferrets tame when you hold them.. we have 2 ferrets for about 3 weeks now and they still want to nip us.. we have them indoors playing with us for about 1 hour-2 hours a day.. I want to pick them up and cuddle and have them lick my face like you see in these UA-cam channels
Ferrets are descendants of once domesticated polecats. Polecats live about everywhere on the continent of Eurasia. It is all to popular to cross a domestic ferret with a wild polecat, which will result in ferrets that are not suited to keep as pets, so be cautious and only get fully domesticated ferrets when buying one. Black-footed ferrets (American polecats) and Eurasian polecats are different species. Americans ranchers are even more animal unfriendly than in any other country I know of (and it's not much better there), they probably shoot black-footed ferrets thinking it is either a rodent or a groundhog. Groundhogs/squirrels provide burrows and sustenance for the black-footed ferret and groundhog populations are in decay. Unlike other parts of the world where most animals are kept in farms and away from nature, American ranchers move their cattle through actual wild pastures where the black-footed ferret resides.
SophisticatedName i mean a simple google search will prove yourself wrong. compare nutritional facts, ferret food is much higher in DV% of things like protein and fat because they metabolize much quicker. they also dont need the carb/starch fillers in cat food. like, for WHAT reason would you provide cat food when there’s a diet formulated specifically for them? makes no sense honestly just accept your mistake, fix your care and move on.
ferret legging sounds really inhumane and cruel, the very least of consequences should be that the “competitors” get scratched up. human kind always finds new ways to disappoint 🙃
There's one thing that I had learned in my teenage years when my father had 2 ferrets... Their metabolism is fast... It really seemed like they pooped their bodyweight daily... They were descented, but with that much poop, made little difference...
My female ferret named Mila (mee-la)has a preditory instinct for small stuff animals.Oh and we do have a hamster and my albino ferret almost ate the hamster!😳🐹🦦 and I also have two parrot a Quaker and a budgie
Hi Emily! *waves paw* I just got my first personal companion ferret (Rodger) and enjoy your videos! I was wondering if you can tell me where I can learn how to teach him the "BANG!-play-dead" trick?? and if you have any other tricks you know, we are definitely going on that journey together
We I got my ferret he was so sick but we didn’t even know it.Until he kept having a runny nose and crust gooey eyes so then we took him to the vet.The vet suggested uthinaisa but I said no and to do everything he can!!luckally he is well and thriving with now an albino brother and brown sister

Samantha Strickland haha, I’m very very glad! All ferrets deserve owners they love ❤️
I have a deaf ferret too along with five others and they are free roaming in my room so all the others will wake up for playtime with me and I have to go fetch him to come play or he won’t wake up all day
Nikki Trev haha! It’s kinda like that at my house two. I let my ferret out in the mornings. If it’s a school morning and my moms working we put her back in her cage till my mom comes back from work. But, if me and my sister have no school we usually keep her out for a couple hours. She usually ends up hiding and falling asleep somewhere though 😂
Dead sleep is especially terrifying with a ferret thats 8 years old
Plz could you make a video about what it really takes to take care of a ferret how to ferret proof a house, diet,cage and that kind of stuff thinking about getting a ferret but have seen that it's not good for beginners and are a very hard pet to keep but i would like to be convinced that they do make great pets. And also I would like to know do ferrets get along with dogs?
Julia Mierzwiak I currently have four ferrets, ages 7, 5, 5, and almost 1 and all of them have been raised with my dogs ages 16 weeks, 1 year and 2 years old. So my dogs learn from very early on ferrets are not prey or toys (but are always supervised with my ferrets) and I’ve never had a ferret react to a dog with any behavior other than playing or not caring. My 3 older ferrets (boys) have also been introduced to 3 of my 5 cats when the cats were kittens and played with my kittens just like they played with each other. Of course cat instincts are more strong and unpredictable than dogs, so they don’t get the same amount of exposed to my cats as my dogs, but supervised all of my ferrets get along just fine with my cats and dogs. None of my ferrets have ever been aggressive towards any an animals, (including my one ferret who is a rescue and was abused by children)
@@leiamichelle210 thank you that was very helpful and thank you for replying and letting me know about ferrets
I have a huge dog and 5 ferrets who were all old when introduced but they do really well together. If she’s harrasing them too much they’ll find a place she can’t get to or out run her
@@kingzeeki5654 thank yoi
Depends on the ferret and on the dog. Keep them supervised. I dont say this because 'the dog will bite!' but because the ferrets will bite too and may freak the dog out / get nipped / get stepped on. Ferrets have very thick skin and can bite eachother hard without issues but most other animals have thinner skin and it huuurrrrts!
The number of times the older ferrets I had scared me half to death and made me think they were dead during dead sleep. The number of panic attacks ferrets have caused me. But they're also a great pet for someone with depression cuz they're such a goofy pet they always cheer you up just by running past you.
I can say ferrets were a great pet to grow up with
Most definitely! Wee little stinky anti- depressants, I cannot get enough of mine
*CARPET SHARKS* the most dangerous thing on the planet :0
They kill you with their... *CUTENESS*
I just love *FERRETS*
I love Dobby and Niffler!♥️
Also I wanted to ask if I could recreate some of the drawings from your draw my life vid for my own Instagram...♥️♥️♥️
Bianca Mariniuc Yes if course! Go for it!
WAIT YOUR TELLING ME MY FERRET FORM YEARS AGO WAS ACTUALLY IN A DEAD SLEEP???? SO MY MOM AND DAD JUST THREW AWAY A LIVE FERRET?
Dang man
holy sh-
👁👁 bro-
This is actually sad 😞 😔
Please tell me you're joking :,(
Here’s a fact that wasn’t mentioned
I LOVE THEM AND THEY ARE ADORABLE
WHAT WE WANTED BUT NEVER DESERVED
kari Your comment cracks me up!!! Hahahahaaaa
I recently just got a ferret. I have owned them in the past but never a male ( this ferret is a male) he’s crazy and weird and likes to rough house and his name is Snickers!
Izzy N DIYs in jealous fr tho
I had to get rid of my male ferret his name was snickers too
silent_peeker Aw im so sorry :(
when i went to the pet store 2 years ago there was a cage extremely filled with ferrets some of them try to hold you :(
Snickers needs a Snickers
Honestly I like the smell of ferrets I never thought ferrets smell bad I always liked the smell
Can you describe the smell pls
@@Mostwantedside223 armpit but like with alcohol thats been fermentated for a while
It's not that bad unless they fart... Wooffy😱
mine lowkey smells like weed
If I get a ferret and my friend asks to hang out I’m gonna be like “I’m taking care of a business go away”
NIFFLER+DOBBY+TACO= the best thing on earth
Fresco DeLaCrúz agreed!!!
Perfect timing!!!! Im starting to study animal care, and I have to look after five of the smaller species😁 also what species of ferrets are yours? Thanks em x
Peter Gregory They’re simply the domestic ferret. Their colours are sable mask and sable mitt (Niffler).
Shoulda named one of your ferrets 'draco' harry potter fans know what im talking about.
Someone got my joke xD
@@sophiecresswell5051 I was looking for 3 ferret names and u gave me such a good idea, i already had conchobar, cancerbero and i was thinking maybe cristal, but im considering draco now tho hehehe
Omg yasssss
One of our guinea pigs name is Bellatrix
Not much of Harry Potter fan, dough I have seen the movies... Draco is also name of a Dragon in the movie: Dragon Heart pt.1 & pt.3 ( Sorcerers Curse )...
New name for ferrets: *Sonic worms*
Edit: I think I saw my family's pet ferret doing the weasel war dance in his cage once.
Her: ferrets are actually domestic species
Me: did you hear that? Your meant to be DOMESTIC not BITE
Edit: it's only one of my 3 ferrets that bites and I can now hold her with my hands for longer
5:11 "sup"
@Andy Nguyen i didnt catch that. now i am on the floor laughing
YAAAASSSS 12 and a half minutes ALL about Dobby and Niff!!!!!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Isabelle Marie Croitoru enjoy!!!
Bonus weasel is the reincarnation of bonus meme
Titan Hound No way lmao
Titan Hound 😆😆😆😆
5:11 did it just say “sup”
Ethan SF ikr like I see u
I asked my dad for a ferret and I’m getting two
Lucky
Just make sure you’ve done proper research
I absolutely adore andlove you and you’re animals ❤️❤️❤️💕💕💕💕
Ansie Badenhorst Thank you Ansie!
One of the few videos I enjoyed a 100% regarding facts and ferrets.
I love mine to death.
But having a decent income is required when owning ferrets, or pets in general, for medical bills.
I LOVE ferrets soo much but in New Zealand where I live they where brought here to get rid of rabbits but they are now known as pests because they found some thing more interesting to hunt and that is the endangered kiwi bird ToT oh and amazing video I loved it keep u the great work 🤓
ShadowWolf23808 I’m a ferret owner . I don’t know if anyone knows this here but I rung MAF they told me if you have more than three you need a licence. Even though it is apparently illegal there seems to be a grey area I do believe.
ShadowWolf23808 I don’t think you are referring to domestic ferrets but wilder European polecats. Domestic ferrets can’t survive in the wild for more than a few days and most are useless as hunters
I have a very important fact: FERRETS ARE ADORABLE!!!!
the most important
" hello my little fur sausage" omg 😍😍
Noodle cermets
Be sure to water your cermets, or they will nawt grooowww
give chikan in order to an graw
@@desiree2401 chikan is needed
i had no idea ferrets were a completely domesticated species! that’s so interesting- it’s kind of like llamas and alpacas with their very similar wild relatives! great video
I needed this.
Wolfsbane Enjoy!

Niffler has no instincts for ANYTHING other than eating and sleeping and basically being about dynamic of a BANANA.
Me: Niffler has the dynamic of a banana, my ferret (her name is Athena) has the dynamic of a someone eating a hot pepper 😒
I’m trying to convince my parents to let me get a ferret any tips
Try to prove to them you are trust worthy/responsible
I disagree when she says they are medium maintenance. They are a lot of work to properly care for.
@@markxxx21 i think she means not high maintenance but not easy. Not on the level of a dog, cat, or rabbit but still difficult to care for at times.
Dobby and nifler are the best! 😙😙😙
Furry Fuzzy Fluffy MCHJJR 😉✌🏻
Hey Em! I just want to say you are awesome! And your pets are so cute! 💕
Your ferrets are so cute!!!! I wish I could own ferrets but my dad is allergic to mostly all animal fur 🙁🙁🙁 Love you Em keep up the good work!❤️❤️❤️ Oh and I'm 35th like :)
Summer Watermelon ferrets are great pets but a lot of work and require A LOT of work, ferret proofing, and love.
Mimi Amazing Oh really? I didn't know that. Thanks for telling me! :D
Mimi Amazing Cool!
I actually have fur allergies and my ferrets don’t trigger them at all! X
Ferrets are good pets for people who have allergies. I'm allergic to most dogs and cats but my ferret hasn't bothered me at all! 💜
"Niffler does not have any instinct and will only choose to eat and sleep"
Me: "Mom, why didn't you tell me I had two names?"
One clarification, if I may: Domestic ferrets are descended from the European polecat, and there are breeders who mix the lines. So while there is only one species of wild "ferret," domestic ferrets have close relatives in the wild. Polecats are very difficult to domesticate and hybrids have some of the undesirable traits. If you do a search for European polecats, the images look just like your "poley" or sable, ferrets in this video.
Dead Sleep still scares me, after 10 years and 28 ferrets.
Your ferrets are beautiful!
I lost my fuzzballs a couple of years back all with pretty rough end of life care before finally having to put them down . The several year long experience left me pretty broken and I swore off ferrets, not thinking I could handle the heartache of it all. Your videos have been SOOOO healing as Niffler and Dooby are almost clones of two of the ferrets I had (a very large and derpy male named Winston and a stunted but driven female named Jolene) and have helped me realize, I still have a ferret shaped hole in my heart and when I'm ready, I'm going to add these little carpet sharks back into my life. Thank you
Love u so much you inspire me more and more every vid 💓
My favorite fact was that a group of ferrets is called a business lol that's so amusing 😂
Well I have 5 so do I have a business of ferrets lol
Bruh i remember when Pepper was in dead sleep and i was terrified i legit thought he died and i freaked
deep inhale... yes they smell omg i,m dead!!!!
I want a ferret so bad but I have a hedgehog and I don’t want the ferret or my hedgehog to get hurt
Yeah I wouldn’t risk it.
It depends on your setup :) you can definitely keep both - just don’t have them together in the same room or out at the same time :)
I have ferrets and a hedgehog and they do fine (I keep them separate and don't have them outside at the same time, of course)
Didn't realize they were only indigenous to North America. I live that you bring up the bad part of ownership. Too many get one because they are cute, put it in a cage, ignore it, and wonder why they are not good pets. Research any new pet breed before committing to its care.
P Pollei Yes, that is very sad. Ferrets don’t belong in cages. They are way too intelligent and get bored and depressed
Kathy B that’s why I let my ferrets free roam aka their cage is my entire room, I ferret proof it and everything for my little babies
wait. 18th century? or the 1800's ? :p bc that means it's either 1700's or the 19the century?
I’ll be getting my first ferret next week!!!
so hows it going with your floof noodle? :D
Dobbby and Niffler: : mommm! Your embarrassing us in front of the camera!!!
I couldn’t stop laughing how the ferrets got thrown everywhere! XD HA!
“A little business of ferrets.”
The image in my mind was absolutely adorable.
A bunch of ferrets with little suitcases going to their desk jobs
A business of ferrets going to board meetings and talking about quotas. ❤️. I imagine “The Office” in Ferret version
Hi Em, would you consider doing a Blue Tongued Skink creature feature or care video, I'm watching all yours videos and loving the channel so much, your personality is so colourful :D :D :D x
That would be such a cool video!
@@mjeremiah8882 They are so cute! I'm tempted to get one but don't want to rush in to it haha
@@giraffespag Best not to rush, a lot of things to consider before buying like time, cost, space etc. Not sure how complex they are haha
@@mjeremiah8882 Just got up to the Blue Tongued Skink creature feature, care video would still be super interesting :)
Hey Em I need help! I got a pet male rat (a dumbo rat I think) and my mother won't get a second rat and I heard rats love to socialize but that's not my biggest problem. My biggest problem is the CAGE! We're using my old bird cage which is too small for a rat (it's literally so small he can't run around in it). I asked my mother to buy a better cage for my birthday but she disagrees and says it's not a real birthday gift. My rat seems a little depressive and I don't want to give him away so please I really need help I don't know what to do!
Sally Face I would consider giving your rat away to someone who can give him a better home...:( Perhaps a shelter who also has a singular rat and a proper enclosure. Unfortunately, rats are a bit more complex than most people think. Good luck!
If u can't provide everything it needs. Give it away. Don't keep it if u can't provide for it. That's animal abuse. U obviously cant provide the space. The fact that that cage is so small is sickening. Give it to a shelter or sell it back to a pet store. Trust me its better doing it this way. Then keeping it and continuing to abuse it. Even if u want to get it more stuff. U can't rn. And again it living in that cage is abuse.
And u may not purposefully abusing it. But a horder thinks there doing good by letting 30 dog a live in the poop covered house. But there not.
U might think its good to keep him in that cage instead of giving him away. Its not.
Animal abuse is when u know an animal needs more then ur providing it. U may be feeding and handling it. But that cage is abuse.
Try finding a short video about what rats need to be properly cared for and sit down with your mum and watch it together. Then discuss what you can do to earn the money needed for supplies. Good luck!

FYI either you meant the ferrets were brought over to America in the 19th century/1800s or the 18th century/1700s. The first century includes the years 0-99 AD/ACE, which is why we live in the 21st century despite not living in the 2100s
I have two fuzzbutts.❤ love them unconditionally.
Omg ! I am so exited for this video 😁 Your little weasels have really inspired me to become a ferret owner and after almost a year of wanting them , I recently became a fosterer for a local ferret rescue 😍 (We are a bit of a fail as we are already keeping a pair🤦♀️ )I quite frankly wouldn't be doing this if it wasn't for these little noodles 🙈 So thank you so much Em , you are such an inspiration 😁 I am so happy that their ridiculous bouncing has such an interesting name 🤣 YASSSS ! I'm a ferret queen (700 years ago 🤣). Oh my gosh , I hope mine never do that , I would be terrified 😱 Hehe , I'm going to have to go and bombard my mum with all these fascinating ferret facts and outsmart her for once 😋
Thank you for such a fascinating bonus weasel video Xx
Also I think the why I'm a vegan backlash was extremely pitiful and unneeded I hope your channel recovered and also I have 4 ferrets a royale python 2 parrots and 5 mice yet I still eat meat you can eat something just cause you enjoy it saying a animals lover can't eat meat is like saying a gardender can't eat a salad so you are a great channel and I wish you the best of luck cheers
How long does it take to have your ferrets tame when you hold them.. we have 2 ferrets for about 3 weeks now and they still want to nip us.. we have them indoors playing with us for about 1 hour-2 hours a day.. I want to pick them up and cuddle and have them lick my face like you see in these UA-cam channels
Ferrets are descendants of once domesticated polecats. Polecats live about everywhere on the continent of Eurasia. It is all to popular to cross a domestic ferret with a wild polecat, which will result in ferrets that are not suited to keep as pets, so be cautious and only get fully domesticated ferrets when buying one. Black-footed ferrets (American polecats) and Eurasian polecats are different species. Americans ranchers are even more animal unfriendly than in any other country I know of (and it's not much better there), they probably shoot black-footed ferrets thinking it is either a rodent or a groundhog. Groundhogs/squirrels provide burrows and sustenance for the black-footed ferret and groundhog populations are in decay. Unlike other parts of the world where most animals are kept in farms and away from nature, American ranchers move their cattle through actual wild pastures where the black-footed ferret resides.
When you see a ferret that looks like it’s having a seizure, don’t worry, it’s just your weasel being excited and doing a war dance
My vet said a all natural cat food with all meat or ferret pellets not marshals food
Memo Mochi cat food is not appropriate for ferrets
Kitten food is recommended if you cannot supply raw meat constantly. Kitten food has lots of protein and is suitable for ferrets
SophisticatedName no, it’s not. that’s why they sell ferret food.
StealingSunsets right and is that why our local Rspca supplied us with kitten food when we adopted our first hob?
SophisticatedName i mean a simple google search will prove yourself wrong. compare nutritional facts, ferret food is much higher in DV% of things like protein and fat because they metabolize much quicker. they also dont need the carb/starch fillers in cat food. like, for WHAT reason would you provide cat food when there’s a diet formulated specifically for them? makes no sense honestly just accept your mistake, fix your care and move on.
X3 awwww..SO CUTE
Laurmau Aarmau Thanks!!
Fun Fact: your spirit animal is probably Niffler
ferret legging sounds really inhumane and cruel, the very least of consequences should be that the “competitors” get scratched up. human kind always finds new ways to disappoint 🙃
I love you And your pets
There's one thing that I had learned in my teenage years when my father had 2 ferrets...
Their metabolism is fast...
It really seemed like they pooped their bodyweight daily... They were descented, but with that much poop, made little difference...
Awww I don’t think I’ve ever been so early 😂. Love you em
*insertnamehere* Omg Wow! Welcome back!
My female ferret named Mila (mee-la)has a preditory instinct for small stuff animals.Oh and we do have a hamster and my albino ferret almost ate the hamster!😳🐹🦦 and I also have two parrot a Quaker and a budgie
Hi Emily! *waves paw* I just got my first personal companion ferret (Rodger) and enjoy your videos! I was wondering if you can tell me where I can learn how to teach him the "BANG!-play-dead" trick?? and if you have any other tricks you know, we are definitely going on that journey together
Omg I love you and your amazing ferrets
Savannah Bird stuff and art Thanks so much!!
I LOVE THEM SO MUCH 😍😍😍
OMG CRYING "CAT SNAKES"😆
allways loved ferrets. but i dont think they arent right for me. but man am i crazy about them.
Farrets: *exist*
Humans: "Hey I wonget how long I can keep them in my pants?"
as a rabbit owner at certain points i became sad-
Can your ppppplllllllllllleeeeeeeeaaaaasssssssseee please do a
Creature feature on rats (if you have the time) because I'm obsessed thx em
I just fell in love with ferrets 😂😍
Hi
We I got my ferret he was so sick but we didn’t even know it.Until he kept having a runny nose and crust gooey eyes so then we took him to the vet.The vet suggested uthinaisa but I said no and to do everything he can!!luckally he is well and thriving with now an albino brother and brown sister
After watching your ferret care video me and my brother are thinking about adopting 2 ferrets!!!
