I'd make a calculated guess that you saw a mongoose. They are not
related to ferrets but they sure to do look similar! The Inidan
mongoose is a renowned cobra killer. Remember the mongoose in The
Jungle Book? We saw any number of these interesting little animals
when we were in Hawaii last year.
Here's a site to take a look and see if this is what you saw! It's
pretty interesting and does mention the mongoose in Hawaii.

Animals can communicate quite well. And they do. And generally
speaking, they are ignored. - Alice Walker
Hunt each other - leave the animals alone.
