Hi,
Peppermint oil has been mentioned as an inhalant. The European Agency for the Evaluation of Medicinal Products - Veterinary Medicines Evaluation Unit has a summary report on Menthae Piperitae Aetheroleum. The document can be found:

[Note that not all substances which are safe for humans
are also safe for members of carnivora (which includes
ferrets) so also always check herbals against lists like
http://www.aspca.org/pet-care/poison-control/plants/
which does not appear to list peppermint or mentha,
a good sign. -- Moderator]
