This is in regards to Silly (?) Question from Ferret List 216. I once had a large Holland Lop rabbit that I would let out with my ferret. When the ferret came near the rabbit, the rabbit thumped its large feet and made a charging gesture towards the ferret. This always scared the bejeebers out of the ferret and it went running off for a while. I never left them alone together, and I would recommend you not leave yours alone either. If you put them out together keep them under close supervision. I know from first hand experience (unfortunately) that ferrets DO NOT get along with hamsters, rats, pigeons, chinchillas or turtles. I hope this helps a little. [This is rather heavily dependent upon the individual ferret. Some do get along with smaller animals. But I'd never trust one with something as small as a hamster, rat or mouse.] Jenny [Posted in FML issue 0217]
