Complete Hypoallergenic Ferret Food — 100% British Chicken & Rice

Vitalin Ferret Complete Food is a nutritionally complete and balanced recipe carefully formulated to provide everything your ferret needs for a happy, healthy life. Made with 48% chicken meat meal from 100% British chicken and 26% rice, this hypoallergenic, wheat gluten-free food delivers high-quality protein in a highly digestible format suitable for ferrets of all ages.

Enriched with prebiotics, fish oil, taurine and yucca extract, Vitalin Ferret goes beyond basic nutrition to actively support your ferret's digestive health, skin and coat condition, and overall wellbeing.

Key Benefits

Hypoallergenic Formula — wheat gluten free, ideal for sensitive ferrets
48% Chicken Meat Meal — from 100% British chicken, high-quality animal protein
High Protein (38%) — supports the naturally carnivorous diet of ferrets
Added Fish Oil (1%) — supports healthy skin and a glossy coat
Taurine (1,000mg/kg) — essential amino acid for heart health and holistic nutrition
Prebiotic FOS & MOS — supports a healthy digestive system and gut microbiome
Yucca Extract — helps minimise stool odour naturally
Suitable for All Life Stages — from kits (3-4 weeks) through to adults

Why Taurine Matters for Ferrets

Ferrets are obligate carnivores and cannot synthesise sufficient taurine from plant sources. Taurine is essential for healthy heart function, vision and reproductive health. Vitalin Ferret includes 1,000mg/kg of supplementary taurine to ensure your ferret's nutritional needs are fully met, even on a complete dry food diet.

Digestive & Odour Support

The inclusion of prebiotic FOS and MOS helps maintain a balanced gut microbiome, supporting healthy digestion and immune function. Yucca schidigera extract is a natural plant-based ingredient well known for its ability to reduce the ammonia content of faeces — helping to keep your ferret's environment fresher for longer.

These notes are intended as a guide only and exact feeding amounts should be varied according to your ferret’s age, sex, condition and activity levels.

Vitalin Ferret can be fed to kits from as early as 3-4 weeks. During the first week we recommend feeding small quantities of food, softening with a little warm water and replenishing every few hours. Reduce the quantity of water throughout the week and feed dry from the second week onwards on a free feed basis.

Adults should be fed dry food on a free feed basis, but restrict food to 5% of their bodyweight if they become overweight. Pregnant or lactating jills should also be allowed to free feed.

When introducing Vitalin into your ferret’s diet we advise that this is done gradually over a period of 5-10 days until it replaces all other food. Fresh drinking water should always be available.
