I've only owned ferrets for almost three months, but those little ones
crack me up!  One of our rescues (and latest additions) Tundra is a
silver mitt.  She's started doing something that none of the other
ferrets do.  When I let them out of the cage, she'll race by me a few
times, stop at my feet, dook and take off again.  She'll do this for
about 15 minutes or so.  I've started calling her "Dook Racer" - like
Speed Racer.
 
Which brings me to nicknames...how many nicknames do your ferrets have
and what are they?  I figured this would be a fun topic too!  Ours are:
 
Mischief: Miss Mischief, Kissy Miss Missy, "Ow!  Dammit!" and the Bitch
(in the nicest possible way, of course) :)
 
Dakota: Bright Eyes, Happy, Baby Boy (he's not a baby, though) and
Chuckles
 
Willow: Little Fert, "What was that?", Baby Girl (she's three months old)
and Silly Willy
 
Tundra: Crazy Fert, Dook Racer, "Gimme that" and "NO, that's mine!"
 
Chicklet: Chicky-let, Love Bug and Puddle o' fur (she's the only lap fert
in the business)
 
Oh!  And last night, they decided to steal the poop scoop which I still
can't find, and Tundra took off with my husband's screwdriver - she
yanked it right out of his hand!
