Ferret houses, baskets & cushions – hiding places and sleeping areas for real sleepyheads
Ferrets love to sleep warm, dark, and curled up in a safe hiding place. With the right houses, baskets, and pillows, you can make their habitat not only more cozy but also more peaceful: multiple sleeping areas allow your ferret(s) to choose where they want to sleep. In this category, you'll find a practical selection of sleeping bags, hammocks, hanging bags, baskets, dens, and houses – comfortable to snuggle into, easy to combine, and (where possible) easy to keep clean. Specialists since 2011, so you can choose with confidence and with help.
Combine multiple hiding places (hammock + den + basket) so your ferrets can choose their own. This creates a sense of calm, especially in pairs or groups.
Preferably choose washable beds and use "changeable" sets. Combine them with health and care for a fresh routine.
Clearly separate sleeping and toilet areas. Also check ferret toilets and litter boxes .
Which sleeping place suits your ferret(s)?
The best choice depends on three things: where you'll be using the sleeping area (cage or room), how many ferrets you'll be keeping together, and how vigorously they'll chew . These rules of thumb will help you quickly find the right one:
- For the cage: hammock/hanging bag for “sleeping at the top”, plus a closed-off cave or sleeping bag for security.
- For a run or ferret-proof room: a sturdy basket, pet cave or blanket as a permanent "home base".
- For duos or groups: preferably one larger hiding place or several places, so that they don't have to "discuss" about the best spot.
- If your ferret chews on fabric, choose a sturdier model, keep an eye on the edges, and switch to a different type if your ferret continues to destroy it.
Useful examples from this category (great as a starting point): Plush Cave Sunny 44 cm , Carrot Sleeping Bag Plush 40 cm , Plush Hanging Bag Beige Gray , Hammock Stripes 42 cm , Pet Cave Chunk and Basket Rozy 35 cm .
Types of houses, baskets & cushions: what does what?
- Hammocks & hanging bags – ideal for ferrets that like to lie up high and “nest”.
- Sleeping bags/tunnels – provide a sense of security; ideal for sleepers who like to snuggle up.
- Baskets & pet caves – sturdy and comfortable as a permanent sleeping place (also useful outside the cage).
- Igloos & houses – a clear hiding place; practical if your ferrets like to sleep in a "cabin."
- Blankets & pillows – perfect as an extra layer or "change set" for quick hygiene.
Tip: Many ferrets like it when you offer at least two types (e.g. hammock + tunnel), so they can choose depending on the time and temperature.
Placement: how to make it safe and attractive
- Quiet corner: do not hang or place the sleeping area directly near the busiest passageway of the cage.
- Multiple levels: hammock at the top, cubby hole lower – this way you make use of the height and avoid “traffic jams”.
- Secure attachment: check hooks, cords and stitching regularly (ferrets are strong and enterprising).
- Don't submerge: prevent dripping on textiles. Also check food and water bowls for proper placement.
Heat & materials: choose by season and by "rodent type"
In winter, a closed sleeping bag or den is often preferred; in summer, many ferrets prefer a more open basket or hammock. Pay particular attention to breathable materials and make things easier with washable options and an extra set for changing. Want to add extra comfort? A loose blanket as a layer, such as the Plush Blanket Taupe , often works very well.
Maintenance & hygiene: how to keep your lounge areas fresh
- Work with 2 sets : one in use, one clean/on hand (saves hassle).
- Wash textiles regularly according to the label (and allow to dry thoroughly).
- Daily quick check : remove wet spots or "stuff" immediately.
- Combine cleverly with a toilet area : a separate toilet area with a toilet and toilet filling keeps sleeping areas cleaner.
- For additional resources and care products: Ferret Health & Care .
Checklist: sleeping and sheltering places well arranged
To build a strong foundation, review this list:
✔ Minimum 2 lying places per cage (preferably 2 types)
✔ One enclosed shelter (den/sleeping bag) for security
✔ Washable textiles or changing set available
✔ Confirmation checked (hooks/cords/stitching)
✔ Separate sleeping and toilet areas: toilets + toilet filling
✔ Fresh water and a clean place for food/drink: food bowls and water bowls
Safety warnings
- Check textiles for loose threads, fraying or open seams and replace if worn.
- Does your ferret tend to destroy fabric? Then choose a firmer type and keep a close eye on it for the first few days.
- Make sure that hammocks/hanging bags hang stably and cannot come loose due to pulling or jumping.
- Wash textiles with a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly; strongly perfumed residues are not ideal in the enclosure.
- If you suddenly notice any unusual behavior, such as not eating or drinking, or significant lethargy, contact a veterinarian.
FAQ – Frequently asked questions about ferret houses, baskets & cushions
How many sleeping places does a ferret need?
Allow for at least two spots per cage , and preferably multiple options for pairs/groups. This way, everyone has a choice (and you avoid the hassle of trying to find the "best spot").
What's better: hammock or basket?
Many ferrets enjoy both . A hammock is ideal as a lounging spot up top; a basket/den is perfect for snuggling up. The combination usually works best.
My ferret is chewing on fabric bedding. What should I do?
Check for wear and tear daily and choose a sturdier model or switch to a different one. If your ferret continues to destructively, it's wise to eliminate that specific sleeping area.
What is the easiest way to keep sleeping areas clean?
Work with changing sets (2 pieces) and make the sleeping and toilet area clearly separated with ferret toilets and toilet filling .
Which categories are useful to order from?
For a complete set-up: Ferret toys , food bowls & water bowls and ferret food & snacks .
