So I used to just have the long grain white rice in my dig box, but one of my girls Fergie kept thinking it was a litter box then. So I decided to try play sand. Well obviously I forgot how sticky and dirty sand is! It stuck to me as soon as I touched it. As of now, there's a ton of it on my carpet and on the ferrets paws. They've been playing in it for at least a half an hour lol. But it's so dirty! Ugh! They must like it more because it's harder to push around than the rice, and it looks more like dirt. So I don't know how I feel about it now that it's spread all over my carpet haha. But the ferrets sure love it!

Badger kept using the digbox as a litter box when I had sand in it!!! So frustrating...maybe I should make her a litter box with sand and her potty hit rate would improve?

Lol I guess you just never know how they'll react.

My guys love their play sand. It was sticky for awhile and they actually preferred it when wet (less likely to use it as a litter box then too)

I have one similar to that. Boris always tries to stash it I prefer dragging in my Husky that I use for work. Unfortunately, since it's a round canister vac, with no bag, the smaller kids can climb right inside  |

that would be funny to see a ferret going up the vacuum. we have a roomba, those vacuums own its own. its funny to see them chasing it, or on it. |

My silly Boris Badenov got his bum sucked up the canister vacc. He didn't like it very much. Hubby was vacuuming the floor to get it ready to lay down tile and set the nozzle down on the floor. Boris tried to steal the nozzle and somehow got his arse sucked up the nozzle. He wasn't a happy camper  . ciao |

You could try rice! Mine LOVE their rice box. I have heard some some fuzzies like to eat rice though so you should def test it out and watch how they react if you decide to try it for the first week or two  Go figure- rice eating fuzzies out there!! |

Rice is what I originally had, that's all I'd ever used. Fergie insisted on using it as a litter box with rice so I had to switch
