Many people today are aware of how to dress their pets. Dogs, cats and ferrets wear clothes for walks or outings or even when they are at home. Ferrets in particular deserve pampering. You can buy special ferret clothing in stores or online. Better yet, you could sew clothes at home with little effort.
Before you begin, keep in mind that you are creating the dress for a furry animal with bouncy movements. Take care that the dress does not impede the free movement of the ferret or else you may start to struggle with it.
Try to be creative and sew clothes that fit well and look nice. You can do wonders with a small piece of attractive fabric and tailoring tools like a needle, thread, and a little creativity and imagination. Equipped with these simple tools and fueled by your creativity and imagination, you can make an attractive dress for your cute pet.
You need to start by measuring the dimension of the clothing you are going to sew. Take care to keep the neck opening loose so that at least two of your fingers can move freely in it. Measure the neck size neatly around the base, leaving it loose enough for the neck to have free movement. You are now done with the neck measurement.
If you are also thinking of covering the chest, measure the fullest part of the chest, including the stomach. To measure the length of your ferret, measure it from the base of the neck to the tail. These basic measurements are what you need to create ferret clothing that will look cute and cuddly on your pet.
These animals attract fleas and other insects that can irritate them. That’s why it’s important to have a few changes of clothes. You need to keep the ferret clean with his clothes on. Wash these clothes and spray repellents on them to avoid picking up pet irritants.
