My recipe for salmon patties calls for canned salmon (buy whatever type
you like - red, pink, whatever) and *remove* the soft bones. I did say
it's not necessary but hey, I still do remove them. The come right out
with a fork when you're draining the salmon. Then mash the salmon with
a fork.

He doesn't have a cat. I don't think ferrets would eat salmon bones.
Come to think of it, I don't give my cat any kind of bones, soft or not.
Then again, my cat doesn't like fish catfood. She prefers canned
beef, chicken, turkey or liver cat food. No bones.
