Hi! I just purchased my first ferret and have been doing a lot of reading on diets. Right now she has been transitioned to Ziwipeak Air dried and Stella and Chewy's FDR. I feed raw to my dogs but want to keep the ferret on premade raw for the time being until I am more comfortable with ferret formulas. I've read that cat formulas should be fed because of higher taurine levels. Is it possible to feed the dog formula of at least one these FDR/Air dried formulas if I were to supplement taurine? How much would I supplement?
Thanks!

Hello and welcome! The total taurine amount per day should be 500mg, I don’t know how much you’re already giving them by feeding partially cat and partially dog, but you can’t overdose on it so it’s ok to just give 500mg.

Thank you! She was only getting cat food so far out of caution but now I will switch to a dog formula since I have a taurine dosage. |
