Can you use wood shavings as bedding for a ferret?
Absolutely not. Wood shavings are usually made of pine, which is a very dusty wood. If small animals like ferrets, rabbits, etc. come into excessive contact with very dusty materials (such as wood shavings and cat-grade clay litter) this can get into their lungs and dry them up. And that can end up very badly if not caught in time. Short no wood shavings.
