Dear Collective,
 
I thought to share a wee ferret moment with you and get reactions.  Firstly,
both my guys do the classic "rub behind the ears and over the face" to get
scent from the glands back there and spread it around.
 
One of my little ones will stand in the bathroom with me when I'm not
wearing socks, rub my feet with his paws and then rub his face.  When he
does this, he doesn't bother to rub behind his ears.  If he did, I'd figure
he was trying to make me smell like him.
 
So...should I be flattered?  Is he trying to make himself smell more like
me (or my dirty feet...)?
 
Cheers!
Matthew.
