Haha my cat is addicted to Aidens ferret food! (my ferret is Aiden lol) My ferret is on science diet or something similar to that in a yellow bag its like 5lbs for 12.99 at Petsmart I believe. My ferret LOVES that stuff (and so does Mr.Diablo!) haha good luck! Also small bits of boiled chicken (or raw meats) or even RATS a ferret would LOVE as a snack! I wish you the best!

Which cat food? If it's a really good quality grain free cat food like Blue Buffalo Wilderness, Wellness Core or Innova Evo then those are actually far better to feed ferrets than most ferret foods. But if this is a cheap grocery cat food - STOP feeding it to him. Ferrets are obligate carnivores and need a MINIMUM of 35% meat protein.
Most ferret treats are very unhealthy for them and really unnecessary. Ferretone and Ferretvite OK but only about once a week.
Source(s): I've had ferrets for over 17 years, serve on the board of a ferret shelter, run an online ferret forum, a popular ferret Facebook group, write ferret articles for an online newspaper and my website's been featured in and I've been interviewed by Ferrets Magazine a few times.
