Can you put cat litter in a ferrets cage?

It is generally not recommended to use cat litter in a ferret cage. Ferrets are curious and may ingest cat litter, which can cause gastrointestinal issues or blockages. Some litters may also irritate their respiratory systems due to dust. There are specific substrates like pellet-style ferret litters, shredded paper, or newspaper bedding that are preferred for ferrets' comfort and safety. Additionally, their living area should be kept immaculately clean to ensure their overall well-being.
