I RECENTLY RESCUED TWO FERRETS FROM A WOMAN THAT THANKFULLY REALIZED SHE
JUST WAS NOT ABLE TO GIVE THEM ENOUGH ATTENTION.  ONE IS A MALE ALBINO 2
YRS OLD AND JUST LIKE MY OTHER THREE, FULL OF LIFE LOVES TO PLAY ECT. ECT.
THE OTHER ONE IS A 2 YR OLD MALE SABLE, VERY FRIENDLY COMES WHEN CALLED AND
ENJOYS BEING HELD FOR SHORT SPELLS.  HE WAKES EASILY WITH EVERYONE ELSE AND
STARES AT THE CAGE DOOR UNTIL I OPEN IT, HE IS FIRST OR SECOND OUT OF THE
CAGE BUT THAT'S WERE THE DIFFERENCE STARTS, HE ONLY WALKS, NEVER RUNS, OR
WAR DANCES HE REFUSES TO PLAY EVEN WHEN THE OTHERS DIVE BOMB HIM, IF THEY
PERSIST HE WILL GO LIMP LIKE A DOLL, EVEN IF THEY DRAG HIM AROUND BY THE
NECK, THEY GET BOARD AND LEAVE HIM ALONE THEN HE GETS UP AND GOES ABOUT HIS
BUSINESS (SLOWLY) HE WILL EXPLORE GET INTO MISCHIEF, THEN AFTER ONLY 10 -
20 MIN HE WILL FIND A DARK SPOT AND GO TO SLEEP.  THIS ROUTINE NEVER
CHANGES, EXCEPT WHEN HE GETS SHORT TEMPERED WITH SOMEONE WHO IS MORE
PERSISTENT THAN USUALL,THEN HE WILL SIT UP ON HIS BACK LEGS AND MAKE LIKE
HE IS SNAPPING AT THEM LIKE A DOG .  I DON'T KNOW WHAT HE IS TELLING THEM
BUT EVERY TIME THEY STOP, LOOK AT HIM KIND OF FUNNY AND FIND SOMEONE ELSE
TO PLAY WITH.  IS THIS A SIGN OF SOMETHING REALLY BAD OR IS HE JUST
UNSOCIABLE AND LAZY????
 
PS: HE IS NEVER MEAN JUST DETACHED
