Answer 1

I would go with the first one. They will definitely welcome the room if you are getting two. They are extremely hyper animals and need lots of room to move and play in while they are not out and about with you.

Answer 2

id say the first 1 it looks more roomy and easyer to clean and wont tear up as much hope u find the right home 4 ur little sweethearts :)

Answer 3

i would go with the first one. it looks more fun to play in for ferrets :) my ferrets cage is kind of like it just a little smaller.  

Answer 4

id say the 2nd one because it looks easier to clean. I have a friend that has that ferret nation cage and she has to scoop p**p off the floor of it

Answer 5

i think the one from ferrets.com welcome for the help lol

Answer 6

amazon

Answer 7

I would pick the Ferret Nation.

Ferrets are real easy to litter box train, so the deep bottom of the Ferret Townhouse isn't really needed.

The Ferret Nation seems a lot easier to clean (just wipe down the floor/levels & clean the litter box daily).

Not to mention: "ferret-proof dual locks" sounds quite handy. Ferrets are very clever!

Answer 8

In my opinion and many other the Ferret Nation cage is the worlds best ferret cage.

PROS:

It is roomy

You can buy an add on unit to make it a 3 foom cage (called the FN143)

Has wide shelves (The widest from any cage I have ever seen)

Easy to clean

Fun to customize

Makes your ferrets healthy from a peace of mind

Won't break

Lasts for YEARS

Has wheels that lock in place

Has a place to store ferret stuff on the bottom

You can also put stuff on top

You can put the ramp up between the 2 rooms if you have to separate your ferrets for any reason like I did when I got my kit and had to switch him from Marshall's to the ferret store original formula. I didn't want the girls eatin his yucky Marshall's

Only one CON:

Price....But if you put into consideration that in a FN 142 model you can comfortably fit 3 ferrets (not recommended for more than 3) and how happy it will make your ferret than price is no matter. I got my cage with my ferret for $250

you can get one brand new at http://www.ferret.com/item/ferret-nation... for only 206.98 shipping included.

You can buy one on Ebay for $149.95 plus shipping

Here are pictures of MY cage (with my new custom bedding set)(This is my thread on a forum I am on)

http://holisticferret.proboards80.com/in...

http://www.creationsbyangie.com/ this is where I got my bedding set from. She does a really great job and it was pretty cheap compared to other custom bedding places. Plus all procedes go to help shelter ferrets or to foster ferrets.

Those cheap plastic cages I have heard many people say they are VERY hard to clean and some of them you cannot fit a decent litterbox in them. They are also not sturdy.

Just a side note ferrets are note rodents they eat rodents. Ferrets are small carnivorous mammals.

Answer 9

The ferret nation cage is the best!!!!! It is sooo roomy and easy to clean, it is even easier to clean in you have sheets or fleece on the bottom. hemp works too.
