Hi I was just wondering can ferrets have wooden chew toys

I'm not entirely sure whether they can, I read this awhile ago and a few other ferret information sites say the same thing (but not all).

"While ferrets naturally like to chew on things, they do not chew for the same reason that small pets do. Small pets need wood to chew on to control the constant growth of their teeth throughout their lives. Ferrets are carnivores, and their teeth and jaws were made to chew on meat and bones. If you give a ferret wood to chew on, they could ingest wooden splinters that could damage their stomach and intestines. It is acceptable to give ferrets cage accessories that are made from wood if supervised, but if you see any signs at all that your ferret has been chewing on them, remove them from the cage immediately."

I hope that helps a bit
