Ref:  Rochelle's e-mail about ferrets and toilets
 
We have observed the same behavior in our ferrets--the sound of running
water fascinates them, except when it's bath time (go figure)!  Imagine
using the toilet (man-style) and looking down to see four furry faces
vainly attempting to look over the rim to see what that noise is.
Sometimes it's difficult not to laugh (laughing at that particular time
would be bad).
 
Terminology:
We have established that our Carpet Sharks (or Rug Rats) do the Wild
Weasle War Dance when excited and the Ferret Flop when tired (all
stretched out with chin on floor)--does anyone have any other neat terms
for ferrets or their actions?
