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!
