Can ferrets and other pets coexist safely, and how do you facilitate this?

Ferrets can coexist with other pets when introduced slowly and under supervision. Begin with short, controlled interactions, allowing pets to sniff each other through barriers. Observe body language to ensure comfort and safety and intervene if play becomes too rough. Always keep ferrets away from birds and small rodents due to their predatory nature, and ensure other pets have an escape route during interactions.
