I did some more research and came up with a few more terms in ferretus
latinus.
Ferretus rasinus-this refers to the art of pushing a raisin with a ferret
nose to see how far from the starting point they can get it.
Ferretus beggus-this is the art form of asking for a treat,and always
precedes ferretus raisinus.
Ferretus pleasus-This is the last resort effort of assuming the ferretus
flopus position and gazing longingly in the direction of the raisin can.
Ferretus flopus-The well developed art of assuming a flat as a pancake
posture and looking totally bereft.It is raised to a high art by some
skilled practioners with the addition of placing ones body on the humans
foot.
Ferretus tripus-the art, practiced by all card carrying ferrets,of darting
in front of or between the persons feet,some like to add a squeal to get a
better response.
Well,got to go practice my ferret latin.
