Ferret safe hair dye?

[Molly]

Does anybody have any recommendations for safe hair dye? Was considering dying my white ferrets tail blue or purple

PS: Please do not scold me. My babies have a healthy/happy life. Just wanted to have some fun.

You could try food coloring but artificial sweeteners are absolutely out they are very toxic to ferrets Whatever you put on Hass to be safe for them to lick off

Plain food coloring might work, but I don't know how long it has be in contact with their fur--ferrets aren't too keen on having to stay still for long as it is. Don't use any dyes marketed to pets either, since there is nothing available labeled for ferrets.
