Ferretboy111 Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 When they are kits they need alot of handling and play etc, i aim to spend an hour with my guys each day, but i spent longer when they were being handled etc from kitty stage. Id buy a book all about them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 They don't need constant attention and when its hot, they welcome being left alone. Don't forget that most creatures, including dogs and cats, sleep most of the time. Handling when young is very important, but that should be little and often. When adult, a couple of times a day should be enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dibbz2000 Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Mines get about an hour a day in the morning when its mucking and feeding time, i put them in a little run I have in the shed so they can see me moving about and picking them up at my feet, gets them comfortable with me putting my hand down to their level to pick them up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
