|
| Why is Ferret Complete healthier? |
| Ferret Complete is the first British food formulated specifically for ferrets’ needs. |
|
| Since ferrets are carnivores, their primary protein source must be meat. But they have |
| higher energy needs and a shorter digestive tract than cats or dogs. Plus their digestions |
| are relatively inefficient at absorbing vegetable proteins. So ferrets derive little |
| benefit from the corn and soya protein sources found in many cat and dog foods. |
| By contrast, the main protein source in Ferret Complete is fine quality turkey meat meal, |
| to give the correct higher protein level of 36% that ferrets need. |
|
| Fat is a principal source of energy for ferrets, so fat is a vital ingredient in their |
| nutrition. Ferret Complete has a high fat level of 19%, derived mainly from turkey fat and |
| fish meal. The food also includes ground whole linseed for soft, shiny coats. |
| Up to now, many owners have fed their ferrets day-old chicks and raw meat. These attract |
| flies and can rapidly go bad, causing stomach upsets. Plus, new evidence suggests that the |
| egg white found in chicks can cause bald patches in ferrets’ coats. Much better to feed |
| Ferret Complete, which stays fresh for days in the bowl. And produces firmer stools, |
| easier for you to clean up. |
|
| To help maintain your ferret's health and longevity, we now add a natural source of M.O.S |
| (Manno-Oligosaccharides). This helps to simulate your ferret's immune system, reduce the |
| build up of pathogens such as salmonella and e-coli, and increase the beneficial |
| lactobacillus. |
|
| Ferret Complete is loved by ferrets and recommended by experts. |
| Ferret Complete is not only healthy and nutritious, it is also very tasty. Coated in |
| delicious turkey gravy and made in their favourite star shape, it is irresistible to |
| ferrets. The food is recommended by a wide variety of clubs, societies and rescue centres. |
| Notably, National Ferret Welfare Society, International Ferret Welfare of Great Britain |
| and the National Ferret School. |

| FEEDING GUIDELINES |
|
| Kits: From 3 weeks, offer small amounts of food soaked till soft with warm water or broth, |
| gradually decreasing liquid. Replace any uneaten damp food with fresh after a few hours. |
| From 4 weeks, offer only dry food. |
|
| Up to 16 weeks: Free feed, allowing animals to clean out the bowls every 2 or 3 days to |
| maintain food freshness. At this age, daily food consumption will be approx. 7% of body |
| weight (e.g. approx. 35gm of food for 500gm ferret). |
|
| Adult Ferrets: Free feed, but restrict diet to approx. 5% of body weight if animals get |
| too heavy (e.g. approx. 75gm of food for 1500gm ferret). |
|
| Final 2 weeks gestation/lactation: Free feed without restriction. |
|
| The above guidelines can only be approximate as requirements vary from animal to animal. |
|
| Supply plenty of clean fresh drinking water at all times. When switching from other foods |
| allow 7 days for digestion to settle. |
