Summary:
A great thing about this is that it includes a lot of varieties. Bad thing is, not all of it is ferret-friendly and can’t be played without supervision. A few things that are not advisable to be played by a ferret alone are the crinkle ball, star, cotton mice, those with fur, and feather teaser. These are all made with something that they can chew and gnaw on and will definitely send your ferrets to the veterinary hospital in no time. Some items are suitable toys for ferrets like the tunnel which they would surely enjoy, the scratcher fish and balls, color ball, and ball with bell.
If you have time to spare, you can use some of the toys here to play and encourage interaction between you and your pet and tighten your bond. Otherwise, just purchase other toys or set of toys that your ferret can play with alone safely. After all, the purpose of toys is to keep your pets entertained even when you are away.

Summary:
There are 3 available kits. The first 2 kits contained covers for the cage, ramps and shelves while the third kit includes hammock and a hide-and-seek tunnel.
Since these kits are from Midwest homes for Pets, the ramp and cage covers, and hammocks are compatible with specific models of Ferret nation and Critter nation cages only. It can probably fit other brands of cages but there would definitely be adjustments to be made.
These accessories are very useful for your pets. The ramp covers will help them get a grip and walk safely on the ramps without stressing their tiny feet so much to hold onto the plastic ramps. Kit 3 is the best among these kits because it contains a tunnel and body blankie for entertainment and a hammock and cozy cube to rest.

Summary:
The Marshall Ferret Octo-Play is a very fun and interactive toy especially if you have more than 1 ferret. You and your pets will enjoy playing peek-a-boo in this. Just imagine the entertainment it can bring you while you watch your pets play with each other.
Aside from using this as a toy, your pets can also use this to nap inside the tunnels or the head. You must be cautious though and check the inside of the head always because your pets might be chewing and digging inside it without your knowledge. They can suffer from ingesting foreign objects or they might get themselves stuck. That is especially dangerous when they get trapped inside the head because they might suffer from overheat.
Overall, this is a good toy. It engages your pet to move around which keeps them healthy and active. You just have to monitor it daily to ensure that it is safe for your pet.

Summary:
This would be a perfect toy especially if you have more than one ferret. They can chase and hide from each other while you enjoy watching them have fun.
This tunnel is made of plastic with metal ribs. The see-through design makes it easier for you to see if there are any dirt that should be cleaned up inside. However, ferrets have sharp nails and teeth that may puncture this tunnel easily. You have to check daily for punctures that may also cause the wires/metal ribs to be exposed. Daily cleaning is also important to extend the life of this toy. Plastic gets yellow-ish with time and it will be quicker with the natural oils from the body of your pet.

The Marshall Pet Turtle Tunnel is made with polyester and nylon. You might get disappointed that it’s not made of a firm material so it doesn’t hold up steadily.

However, your ferrets can still enjoy zooming in and out of this toy but you might want to check on them from time to time because they might get trapped inside and suffer from suffocation.
You can attach the Marshall Pet Product Super Thru-Way or any other tunnel that can fit on this toy for an added fun.

Summary:
This is such a great toy for your ferrets to stay active and healthy. The Niteangel Ferret Cotton Rope Net can be used as a climbing tool to give your pet the exercise it needs. You can combine multiple nets to make a huge rope bridge or you can also use it as a hammock. However, you have to make sure that your pet is big enough because the gaps of this net are quite huge.
The ropes are thick and strong making this whole net sturdy. Your pet will not easily chew through or fall on this. It’s very functional and encourages your pet to just climb and go around.
It doesn’t only promote activeness, the thick rope also helps in maintaining your pet’s nails and prevents it from overgrowth. Ferrets have very tiny nails and it is quite difficult to groom it. It is relieving to know that the toy of your ferrets also helps you to maintain their health.
