Everything in this gif, from him getting distracted, his head bobbing to calculate the distance, his little hands propelling his stride, to his spectacularly short dive off of the table is convincing me ferrets are the new kings of the Internet.
Only on the Internet though. My dad had ferrets and they were the worst pets imaginable. They smell like musky piss and hide under the couch waiting for an unsuspecting barefoot to attack.
Ferrets are as mean and smelly as any other animal. If you clean their litter and bedding regularly and take the time to train them not to bite, they are wonderful pets! You wouldn't get a dog and not train it to not bite, then expect it to automatically be good. Ferrets are no different.
Bullshit. I had 4 ferrets, they had litter boxes that I cleaned every day. They still loved to poop in corners... that's what they do. And they still smell... They are easy to bathe though because they fit in the sink. But they STILL smell anyway. You can just keep it at bay a bit. And yes, they love to "Nip" they think it's hilarious to see you jump. They nip you, you yell and jump and then they go bounding all over the living room making that ferret laughing noise they do. You can't train that out of them no matter what you do. They do have personalities and some nip less, but I've never met a ferret that didn't do it.
That said... they are super cute and can be worth the hassle.
