Seasons Greetings!
Does any one know what the impact of burning incense has on ferrets? Also related, what is the impact of second hand smoke on ferrets?
Neither of us smoke but are having friends over for the New Year celebration that do.
I enjoy burning incense but haven't been because I don't know of the reaction the ferrets would have nor am I familiar with the possibilities of health risks. We have 5 personals & 2 rescues. (Who am I kidding! I love them all, they're all personals now!) They have their own room set up with two interlocking 5 foot cages and the ability to free roam at least 3 hours a day. I can close the door to the ferret room if the smoking at the party is a known health risk for my fuzzies.
Thanks all!
