Ferret pets are really intelligent animals and thats the truth. They love to learn and thrive on new ideas and activities, eventually boiling down to a few favorites for the both of you. This is just a quick list of a few games that my ferret pets has grown to love.

Ferret pets love toys:

Store toys vs. other house hold items. But ferret pets are very curious, and not everything in your home is safe for them to use as a plaything. Now most ferret pets arent very picky, and there is a wide variety of toys available for sale, Ferret Hammocks, and other bedding excluded, there are hanging tunnels, and other assorted, fairly simple toys you can purchase at you local ferret pets store. I mention how simple this is for a reason. Most of these things have reasonable solutions around your house, with many reusable items like, large detergent bottles, yarn or old towels. Old t-shirts and pants work well.

Some items its best to avoid them all together for the safety reasons, all items need to be cleaned thoroughly. medicine bottles, undergarments (under wire bras), Bleach bottles, glass items and thin plastic objects. Ferrets love to chew and explore items, so these items are just generally dangerous because you cant really clean out chemicals and sharp items appropriately. Other items to avoid while you play with your ferret are the cat fishing lines, and laser pointers, gleaming the pointer into the ferrets eyes, can be very damaging and can cause permanent blindness.

Tunnels are a great toy they are readily available at your local pet store, and superstores. They are also easy to make, with old pants legs, yarn, and plastic rings cut out of middle of a 2-liter. Hammocks are also normally very available all over, and easily made out of a variety of things, old t-shirts, towels, and old bedding from your bed. . For a new fwerret I frefer an old shirt. You have to be very careful that you wash it removing any fragrance product you might use such as body oils scented soaps and perfumes. Ferrets are very sensitive, to smells and chemicals.

The big favorites are noise makers but are not always readily available. Usually several small cords are wound around wooden balls. These tend to look like wood footed octopus. These are easily made by taking several different sized caps and poking holes in them and securing them with yarn or a sturdier nylon cord.

Fishing and chase toys, Im not a big fan of the feather chase toys for cats because the ferret will tend to chew them, and strip the feathers. Sometimes even consuming them, and the dye can make them sick. I also dont like the reel in lines, because they tangle themselves in them quickly and this sometimes panics children who are playing with them and unintentional harm comes to the ferret.

In the home made version use yarn, and the rubber balls you get from gumball machines. Poking a whole through the ball and leaving enough room to tie plastic bottle caps behind it to make a little noise when you toss it, works very well.

You should experiment with new ways to play with your ferret. My ferret attacked the inside of a brown paper bag once and I spent 2 days watching him. So there are all kinds of things you can do with them and this only scratches the surface, of an exciting journey with what started as your ferret pets, but developed into you becoming the ferrets people

Automatic Dog Feeders Allow Owners To Care For Their Pets While Away From Home

Pets blogger

Dog owners often leave their pets alone at home for several hours during the day while they go off to work. In some instances, a dog owner could be called out of town unexpectedly and not have someone available to check on their beloved pet. One way to make sure a pet is well fed during the day is to use a dog food feeder. The automatic dog feeders are available in several different styles and can hold enough food for several feedings. The programmable feeder allows pet owners to select the amount of food to be dispersed for a feeding as well as the scheduled time or times for the feeding.

The large capacity pet feeders can hold up to 45 cups of dry dog food to feed a dog for as long as 99 days. The number of days the feeder can provide food will depend on how often the food is dispensed. The high tech design of the automatic feeders for dogs includes built-in sensors to detect when the feeding dish is full so the system will not release more food than what it is programmed to disperse. Some of the advanced models also come with recording devices so owners can record short messages to their pets to comfort them while they are away.

The automatic dog feeders are constructed of durable materials. The containers are designed to be shatterproof and the bases are created to be sturdy and stable. This means even the largest breed of dog will not be able to knock over the feeder and break it. The lid on the container or hopper also comes with a secure locking system to prevent dogs from tearing it off. The more advanced models also come with alarms to alert pet owners of the need to add more food.

The ability to use a food dispenser for a dog, takes the worry out of going away from home for short periods of time. This device is good to use for pets who are too shy to come out around strangers or for those who are too protective of their surroundings. In addition to the large capacity feeders there are also several small capacity styles designed to provide up to four meals. Some smaller sized dog food feeders can dispense both wet and dry food, which can be useful when dogs prefer eating only wet food.

Maintaining The Artificial Turf When Pets Are Around

Pets blogger

Artificial turf grass is the most convenient way to have beautiful greens at home. Aside from the fact that artifical turf is easy to install artificial turf is also relatively easier to maintain compared to natural grass. Nevertheless, artificial turf grass would take extra care and maintenance if you have a pet at home. Its part and parcel of having a pet to have to clean urine and solid wastes. Since your pets would likely do it in the artifical turf youd just have to do the cleaning there. This will help preserve your artificial turf for longer use and help keep your home be sanitized as well.

Regularly Cleaning Needed

You would need to deodorize and sanitize your artificial turf grass at least once a month if you have a dog at home. You would even have to clean your artifical turf more often if you have more pets. One thing you are trying to remove from the artificial turf is urine. Since its hard to spot urine across your entire artificial turf, you just have to apply some enzyme cleaners all throughout the area. A gallon of such product would be enough to cover 500 square foot. Alternatively, you can also use 5% distilled vinegar or 5% to10% water and bleach solution. If you are going to use commercial products, make sure that you use something made of biodegradable materials. Avoid using products that contain alcohol. Non-foaming and low suds products are advised as residue even attracts more dirt if not rinsed well. Make sure that you rinse cleaners well to avoid this too. Make sure that you treat everything including the base materials, the backing, and the infill too.

Removing Solid Wastes

Pets also leave solid wastes on the artificial turf grass. So before you do your general cleaning, its a must that you remove them first to prevent them from spreading throughout the entire artifical turf. In fact, you need to do this as soon as you discover your pets moving bowel in the artificial turf.

To spot the solid wastes more easily, it would be best to remove all natural debris from the artificial turf grass. Leaves and twigs naturally fall on the artifical turf. But you can easily remove them using a blower. This would make finding and removing pet wastes from the artificial turf easier for you.

After removing solid wastes from the artificial turf grass, you need to follow this up with more cleaning. You should clean the specific spots of the artifical turf where you found the dirt. You would need to rinse this area with water too. Be careful that you do not spread the dirt across the entire artificial turf though.

The sooner you clean such pet wastes from the artificial turf grass the easier it will be for you. The dirt will not stick to the artificial turf blades. You wont need to use stronger cleaners on the artifical turf so there will be lesser chances of damaging it as well. So if you have pets it is important that you are ready to do the extra work to maintain the beauty and the cleanliness of your artificial turf grass.
