Peppermint oil does horrible things to ferrets. Ferrets cannot metabolise this at all

Why don't you throw it passed us first with the ingredients and we will help you find one. It will certainly save you a lot of money. Why don't you try some kefir? It's all natural, if you can get goat all the better but it's certainly better than a lot of the manufactured products out there. That's what I use

I also use kefir. You can usually find it next to the milk or yogurt at the grocery store. Get the plain one. Or get Activia plain.
