>Just wondered how many ferrets rub their ears when awakening?
 
mine often rub the sides of their faces when they are first waking up--
and sometimes before they fall asleep, too.  when i first noticed it i
was afraid they might be having stomach upset or something, but then i
realized they only do it when they're sleepy or waking, not after they
eat.  it's actually very cute.  imagine them yawning so wide they can
almost get both paws in their mouths and covering their mouth while they
do it.  adorable.
