Is it ok to use straight petroleum jelly (100% white petrolatum)
as a

OK
so I gave mine a small pea sized amount and he thought it was the
greatest stuff since Ferretone. So, 1)if it's OK to use, then how

much? and 2)Why does mine (or ferrets in general) like the
taste???




That's what I always use, with a little ferretone stirred in.
