Our vet, who has been treating ferts for at least two decades (longer, I
think) claims that today's high quality ferret foods are specially
formulated for a ferret's nutritional needs, and therefore better than
kitten food, no matter how good. Good kitten food is, of course, better
than poor ferret food.
When we switched to Totally Ferret over four years ago, it was done
after consulting with our vet.
All the best,
Caity and the naughty nine
