Hi all, I've had two ferrets for about 7 months and just got a third in February. He is a baby albino about 12-16 weeks old. The other day I took him into the hallway in my apartment building to run around like I do the other two, and he did the strangest thing. I was chasing him back and forth in the long hallway and while he was running from me he started hissing, then he just truned around, planted his feet and started barking just like a dog. And I mean barking- I was wondering when the neighbors would come out to see what was going on. Now this little guy is much more of a rough-houser than the other two. So fighting and chasing is quite the norm. What I don't know is if this was just play or did I scare him somehow? I felt kind of bad because I thought I must have really scared him, but I'm not sure...maybe he's part poodle? :) Brian [Posted in FML issue 1879]
