To everyone who is trying to socialize rescued ferrets: Please remember this little trick that works really well if a ferret grabs hold of you with the teeth -- place two of your fingers directly over the ferret's two nostrils and presto, the teeth disengage! It's a very effective technique. It may be hard to remember this when you're in pain, but after a couple of tries, you'll get used to it.
