my ferret does not want to play any more?
i got my fetter like 3 months ago and when we first got him he would play around with me but now i try to play with him and he does not want to i made him a play box with all of his favorite things in it and he does not want to play with it he just gets out and goes and does something else is it because he is lonely and wants a friend because the lady i got him from had another ferret and now its just him. he is out of his cage all day except at night that is when we put him up and since it is summer time i play with him all of the time so i know he is not acting like that because i never let him out can anyone tell me why he is acting like this oh and he is 1year old =)

well first off is he showing any signs of a sick ferret? Is he sleeping more than usual? Is he lethargic? is he eating,drinking and pooping as usual? If he is acting healthy then I would not be overly concerned. Sometimes ferrets calm down when they get older. He may be calming down now that hes a little older. However, if you would be able to afford another ferret and provide proper care for it, it may be a good idea to get another! Ferrets are social creatures and LOVE to have other ferrets to play with. My ferret Bailey became very calm when he was about a year old. I thought he was lonely so i got another ferret! now i have Bailey and Bandit.. ever since I got Bandit , Bailey has been VERY playful and eh is very happy to have a companion. I think your ferret would enjoy having another ferret friend :) good luck! I hope I helped

Ferrets are just extremly exploratory and curious about EVERYTHING. When I had a ferret he was NEVER not once interested in playing with me. He just wanted to romp through the house, checking stuff out, and turning over all the trash cans.
If you have two.. Then you'll just have two that do that.. Instead of two that want to play with you constantly. Its the ferret way >< lol
