LOL! You've got it all mixed up! POOPIES is fecal matter. Dooks is the sound that ferrets make when they play. Kinda like, "dook, dook, dook, dook". I personally think the sound they make when they play sounds more like clucking chickens, but that's just me. :-) I bet the entire FML is going to come out of the woodwork on this one. I also would bet that it won't be long before we get a "ferret terminology" thread going on the FML. I'll start... Dook = sound that happy ferrets make when playing Chuckling = same as a dook Hiss = unhappy ferret sounds Hopping and Popping = that dance of uncontrolled body movements Poopies = those little brown presents we find in the corner April "LOVES" Ferrets L una O rion V enus E ros S ola [Posted in FML issue 3048]
