How long do ferrets live as pets?

Ferrets can live as pets for up to 15 years, the average lifespan of a captive ferret is between 6 and 10 years. The oldest ferret that ever lived in captivity was around 14 years. There are several factors that can impact a ferret's lifespan and they are:

  • Genetics
  • Nutrition
  • Level of Exercise
  • Overall Care

If you take proper care and have a good, consistent feeding schedule your pet ferret will generally live for good amount of time. (Source)
