Bob: Your idea for getting people to share their terms of endearment for their ferrets is great! So here the most popular nicknames for our ferrets: -fuzz-weiner (as a more accurate form of "fuzz-ball") -gweenie (short for linguine) -snuggle-muffin -mongol (because they hoard) -ruckus-tuckus You know, after writing this, I realize I shouldn't be surprised that my fuzzies don't come when I call them - they so rarely get called by their proper names!
